DISCLAIMER AND WARNING
IMPORTANT - Please read this disclaimer and warning carefully and review
the ALTA User Manual prior to flight. If you have any questions, please contact
support@freeflysystems.com prior to using the ALTA. You can review the most
current version of this User Manual at www.freeflysystems.com/software-manuals/.
By using the ALTA, you acknowledge that you have read, understand and agree to
this disclaimer. You agree that you are solely responsible for your conduct while
using the ALTA, and for any direct or indirect consequences that may result from its
use. You agree to only use the ALTA for proper purposes that are in accordance with
local and airspace rules and regulations.
» ALTA is not a toy and should be operated with extreme care, as improper
operation can cause damage to property, serious personal injury or death.
» As with any multi-rotor helicopter, the ALTA is a complex and technical
machine. Novice pilots should invest sufficient time on a flight simulator
and seek training from an experienced pilot prior to operation. The ALTA
User Manual and a flight simulator are no substitute for training with an
experienced pilot, particularly when it comes to learning how to safely
operate the ALTA. Novice pilots should never fly without the supervision of
an experienced pilot.
» Always check the ALTA and its components prior to operation.
» Always maintain a safe distance from the ALTA when in use.
» Never attempt to touch the ALTA when the propellers are moving.
» Never fly the ALTA over or around people, power lines or other aircraft.
» Never fly with any propellers that have visible imperfections or damage.
» Always keep children and animals a safe distance away from the ALTA
when in use and when changing configurations.
» Always remove the propellers or power ALTA using a low power source
when making a change to the configuration of the ALTA to prevent propeller
strikes in the event of unintentional motor starts.
» Always remove the configuration jumper when making changes to the
configuration of the ALTA.
» Always test the ALTA with the propellers removed to make sure that the
motors are spinning in the correct direction and that the motor assignment
is correct with respect to the SYNAPSE flight controller. If you have either
of these wrong, the ALTA will be uncontrollable and dangerous.
» It is your responsibility to perform a full system check of the ALTA prior to
every flight.
» It is your responsibility to learn how to safely operate the ALTA and to ad-
here to all applicable rules and regulations.
» Fly at your own risk.
