Ni-MH/Ni-Cd Battery
Charge the batteries! (See Charging the Ni-Cd batteries, for details.) Always recharge the transmitter and
receiver batteries before each ying session. A low battery will soon die potentially, causing loss of control
and a crash. When you begin your ying session, reset your 8FG’s built-in timer, and during the session
pay attention to the duration of usage.
Stop ying long before your batteries become low on charge. Do not rely on your radio’s low battery
warning systems, intended only as a precaution, to tell you when to recharge. Always check your
transmitter and receiver batteries prior to each ight.
Where to Fly

You can also contact the national Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA), which has more than 2,500
chartered clubs across the country. Through any one of them, instructor training programs and insured
