Safety update

Electric Motors

Members are reminded that when operating electric powered models the system is ‘live’ as soon as the battery is connected. While, there may be no apparent movement, they should be treated with the same care as an I/C model with the engine running.

1. Turn on Transmitter ( Throttle at zero)
2. Connect battery (Assume motor may start and take appropriate precautions)
3. Disconnect battery to cut motor (Even if it’s stopped)
4. Turn off Transmitter.
5. Don’t leave models unattended with the battery connected.

35mhz operation

Don’t forget the possibility of interference from or to other members and make sure your frequency is free before switching on.
