etc.) is in good condition and undamaged. If you find a fault, do not fly the
model until you have corrected it.
• When a model is standing on a loose or sandy surface with the propeller
spinning, sand or dust will be sucked up by the propeller and hurled
around. Eye injury hazard: wear protective goggles!
• Never fly directly over people.
• Never fly directly towards people.
• Keep an adequate distance from residential areas: at least 1.5 km "as the
crow flies". It is always best to join a club and fly at the approved model
flying site. Keep well clear of high-tension overhead cables.
• During the take-off and landing procedures it is essential to keep the
runway free of unauthorised persons and movable obstacles.
• Watch your model aircraft constantly for every moment it is in the air.
Models must always give way to full-size aircraft.
• Don't operate your model in the vicinity of public roads, squares, school
playgrounds, public parks or sports fields etc., and ensure that you are
always in full control of the model.
• All model flyers should behave in a way which minimises the risk to public
security and order, and danger to people and property. Never act in any
manner which will disturb other pilots, or is likely to have an adverse effect
on safe, orderly flying at the site.
• In legal terms our models are classed as aircraft, and as such are subject to
statutory regulations and restrictions which must be observed.
• Our brochure "Modellflugrecht, Paragrafen und mehr" (Model Aviation Law,
Legal Requirements and more) is available under Order No. 8034.02, and
contains a summary of all these rules; your local model shop should have a
copy which you can read. Models powered by internal-combustion engines
usually require permission from the landowner before they can be flown.
Insurance is a basic requirement. There are also Post Office regulations
concerning your radio control system, and these must be observed.
• Please don't misunderstand the purpose of these notes. We only want to
make you aware of the many dangers and hazards which can arise if you act
carelessly or irresponsibly. If you take reasonable care, model flying is a
highly creative, instructive, enjoyable and relaxing pastime.
• Our models are highly pre-fabricated, and require only a short time to
complete them. However, the work entrusted to you is important, and must
be carried out carefully. Your model can only perform to its best and be
structurally strong if you carry out your part competently, so please work
slowly and accurately.
