slight warp in a component. These minor faults are in the nature of film-covered built-
up wooden structures, and can easily be corrected using a heat gun, as commonly
used for modelling.
Creases:
Blow warm air over the area and rub down with a soft cloth.
Wing warp:
Hold the panel twisted gently in the opposite direction to the warp,
and apply warm air to remove the creases from the covering.
Caution! do not heat the film more than is absolutely necessary. If the air or the
iron is too hot, the film may melt and holes may be formed.
When self-tapping screws have to be screwed into wood, apply a little white
glue to prevent them shaking loose: just squirt white glue into the hole and fit
the screw.
Operating the SMARAGD
Be sure to read right through the assembly and operating instructions before
you attempt to fly this model for the first time. You alone are responsible for
the safe operation of your radio-controlled model. Young persons under
fourteen years should only be permitted to operate this model under the
instruction and supervision of an adult who is aware of the hazards involved in
this activity.
Please keep these operating instructions in a safe place. If you ever dispose of
the model, be sure to pass them on to the new owner.
If you have any questions regarding the safe operation of your RC model
aeroplane, please turn to your local model shop in the first instance, as the
staff will be pleased to help you.
Radio-controlled model aircraft are extremely demanding and potentially
dangerous objects, and require a high level of expertise, skill and
responsibility from the operator.
In legal terms our models are classed as aircraft, and as such are subject to
legal regulations and restrictions which must be observed at all times. Our
brochure "Modellflugrecht, Paragrafen und mehr" (Model Aviation Law, Legal
Requirements and more) is available under Order No. 8034.01, and contains a
summary of all these rules. Your local model shop should have a copy which
you can read. There are also Post Office regulations concerning your radio
control system, and these must be observed. Refer to your RC system
instructions for more details.

Be sure to use only those parts included in the kit, together with other genuine
Graupner accessories and replacement parts as recommended expressly by
us. Even if you change a single component you can no longer be sure that the
system will work reliably, and such changes also invalidate your guarantee.
