model until the battery requires recharging. Charge the battery for half the time typically
required to fully charge the battery.
WARNING! Do not store or attempt to charge a swollen or damaged battery!

ROTOR BLADE INSTALLATION
The Alias’ rotor blades are not identical. Each
blade is labeled with an A or B. When installing
replacement rotor blades, be certain to install
the rotor blades with the corresponding A or B
for each of the legs (A or B labels for the legs are
molded on the bottom of the helicopter chassis).
The helicopter will not y if the rotor blades are
not installed in the proper locations.
