6.1.1 PRECAUTIONS YOU SHOULD TAKE WITH YOUR BATTERIES
VR-Racer is equipped with a rechargeable Li-Po battery.
- Do not use or leave the battery near a fire or source of heat.
- Do not hit, throw or drop the battery on any hard surface.
- Do not immerse the battery in water; keep it in a dry, cool place at all times.
- When charged, the battery must be checked regularly.
- Do not overcharge the battery.
- Do not damage or pierce the battery with any sharp object.
- Do not join the battery or lead to any metal object of any kind.
- Never charge the battery for more than one hour.
- Never throw batteries into a fire or incandescent flame.
- The battery must be charged under the supervision of an adult.
- If you are going to store a battery for a long period do so with an intermediate level of charge,
neither completely charged nor uncharged.
- When the battery is in storage, check the charge level with a certain frequency in order to ensure
that it does not become completely uncharged and become consequently broken.
- Use only the transformer included in the contents of this product.
- Never leave the battery unsupervised while it is charging.
- If, due to any fault, the charger does not stop charging, the battery could catch fire. Therefore,
monitor the charging process.
- Rapid charges cannot be used. The batteries’ charge voltage must be respected.
- Batteries must be stored when they are between semi- and fully- charged. If stored when empty
they will be spoiled. For this reason, ne
w batteries are always semi-charged.
- Always dispose of batteries in a responsible manner.
6.2 FLIGHT TIME
Your VR-Racer flight time may vary depending on a range of factors:
- The battery charge level.
- The speed at which you fly your aircraft.
- If your VR-Racer comes with the option of switching from the internal to external body, as the
former is generally heavier than the latter.
- The wind speed to which the aircraft is subjected.
- Whether it is fitted with a camera or not.
As a general rule, with the original configuration of the aircraft and with the battery fully charged, we
can expect a continuous hovering flight time of 6-9 minutes, which may increase or decrease
depending on the factors mentioned above.
- Do not connect the battery to power outlet with a different voltage.
