General Information - ROBBE AMPLITUDE Manuel D'utilisation

G E N E R A L I N F O R M AT I O N
• The model is designed for the components specified by us. Unless otherwise stated, servos and other electronic
components are designed for standard supply voltage. Recommended cell count for Lipo batteries also refers
to standard Lipos voltage of 3.7V per cell. If you use other servos, a different motor and controller, batteries, or
propellers, please make sure they fit first. In the event of deviations, corrections and adjustments must be made
by yourself.
• Before starting construction, always put the servos into neutral. To do this, switch on the remote control and
move the joysticks and trim buttons (save the one for the throttle) to the middle position. Connect the servos
to the corresponding outputs of the receiver and supply them with a suitable power source. Please observe the
connection diagram and the operating instructions of the remote control system manufacturer.
• Do not leave your model in the blazing sun or in your vehicle for long periods of time. Too high temperatures
can lead to deformation/distortion of plastic parts or blistering of covering foils.
• Before the first flight, check the wing symmetry, tail unit and fuselage. All parts of the model should have the
same spacing from the left and right wing or tail plane to the centre of the fuselage or the same angle.
• If necessary, rebalance the propellers if vibrations are noticeable when the motor is running up.
• Bubble formation in the covering foils normal to a certain extent due to temperature and humidity differences
and can be easily eliminated with a foil iron or hairdryer.
• For models in shell construction („full GFRP/CFRP"), burrs may occur at the seams due to the production pro-
cess. Carefully remove them with fine sandpaper or a file.

• Be sure to read the safety instructions carefully before operating your model.
• Always follow the procedures and settings recommended in the instructions.
• If you are using remote-controlled model aircraft, helicopters, cars or ships for the first time, we recommend
that you ask an experienced model pilot for help.
• Remote-controlled models are not toys in the usual sense and may only be used and operated by young people
under 14 years of age under the supervision of adults.
• Their construction and operation requires technical understanding, careful craftsmanship and safety-conscious
behaviour.
• Mistakes or negligence during construction, flying or driving can result in considerable damage to property or
personal injury.
• Since the manufacturer and seller have no influence on the proper construction/assembly and operation of the
models, these risks are expressly pointed out and any liability is excluded.
• Propellers on aircraft and all moving parts in general pose a constant risk of injury. Avoid touching such parts at
all costs.
• Note that motors and controllers can reach high temperatures during operation. Avoid touching such parts at
all costs.
• Never stay in the danger area of rotating parts with electric motors with connected drive battery.
• Overcharging or incorrect charging can cause the batteries to explode. Make sure the polarity is correct.
• Protect your equipment and Models from dust, dirt and moisture. Do not expose the equipment to excessive
heat, cold or vibration.
• Use only recommended chargers and charge your batteries only up to the specified charging time. Always
check your equipment for damage and replace defects with original spare parts.
• Do not use equipment that has been damaged or got wet due to a fall, even if it is dry again! Either have it
checked by your specialist dealer or in the Robbe Service or have it replaced. Hidden faults can occur due to
wetness or a crash, which lead to a functional failure after a short operating time.
• Only the components and accessories recommended by us may be used.

• Do not make any changes to the remote control which are not described in these instructions.

• Observe the technical data of the controller.
• Observe the polarity of all connection cables.
• Avoid short circuits at all costs.
• Install or package the regulator so that it cannot come into contact with grease, oil or water.
• Ensure adequate air circulation.
• Never reach into the turning circle of the propeller during start-up Risk of injury
Important information:
The receiver system is powered by the built-in BEC system of the controller.
For commissioning, always move the throttle stick to the „Motor off" position and switch on the transmitter. Only
then connect the battery. To switch off always disconnect the connection battery motor controller, first
then turn off the transmitter. During the functional test, move the servos of the rudders to neutral position with
the remote control (stick and trimming lever on the transmitter to the middle position). Please make sure to leave
the throttle stick in the lowest position so that the engine does not start. For all work on
to the parts of the remote control, motor or controller, follow the instructions supplied with the units. Also read
the instructions of the battery and the charger carefully before commissioning.
Check the engine mounting bolts in the fuselage regularly for tightness.

Attention, danger of injury!
• Always keep a safe distance from your model aircraft.
• Never fly over spectators, other pilots or yourself.
• Always perform flight figures in a direction away from the pilot or spectators.
• Never endanger people or animals.
• Never fly near power lines or residential areas.
• Do not operate your model near locks or public shipping.
• Do not operate your model on public roads, motorways, paths and squares, etc., but only in approved locations.
• Do not operate the model in thunderstorms.
• Before each flight, check your remote control system for sufficient function and range.
• After flying, remove all batteries from the model.
Do not „aim" the transmitter antenna at the model during operation. In this direction, the transmitter has the lowe-
st radiation. The best position of the antenna is to the side of the model.
Use of devices with image and/or sound recording function:
If you equip your model with a video or image recording device (e.g. FPV cameras, action scams etc.) or the model
is already equipped with such a device at the factory, please note that you could violate the privacy of one or
more persons by using the recording function. An overflight or driving on private ground without the appropriate
permission of the owner or approaching private ground can also be regarded as an invasion of privacy. You, as the
operator of the model, are solely and fully responsible for your actions.
In particular, all applicable legal requirements must be observed, which can be found in the roof associations or
the relevant authorities. Failure to comply can result in substantial penalties.
