Frequently Asked Questions - Sky Surfer 2.0 RTF GRAUPNER

How to bind the transmitter to the receiver (Binding procedure)?

First turn on the transmitter, then the Sky Surfer. Press the button on the receiver/ESC unit: the LED flashes red then turns green if binding succeeds. If it stays red, repeat the procedure.

Which LiPo battery to use and how to charge it?

Use a LiPo 7.4 V 2/1100 mAh 20C battery (ref. 92210.1). Charge it exclusively with the LiPo Balancer Charger (ref. 6454) on a non-flammable, heat-resistant, non-conductive surface. Never leave the charging unattended.

Why doesn't the propeller turn?

Check that the model's ON/OFF switch is on and that the battery is sufficiently charged. If the battery is almost empty, the ESC cuts the motor for safety.

How to calibrate the throttle so the motor starts?

After turning on the transmitter then the model, move the throttle stick fully forward (full throttle), then fully backward (motor stop). A beep confirms the receiver is ready.

What are the recommended weather conditions for flying?

Fly in calm to light wind, ideally up to 1.5 m/s (leaves barely move). Avoid winds above 2.5 m/s. Never fly in strong wind (above 30 km/h).

How to adjust the flight path?

Use the digital trims on the transmitter. If the plane turns left, press the right trim button until it flies straight. Do the opposite for a right turn.

What to do if the motor overheats?

Let the motor cool down for at least 20 minutes between flights. Do not exceed this duration, otherwise you risk damaging the motor.

How to maintain the Sky Surfer?

After each session, clean the model and RC components with appropriate products. Check the condition of the lines, propeller, and batteries. Always disconnect the battery after use.

Where to find spare parts?

Spare parts are available at specialized modeling retailers. References: motor (92210.11), receiver/ESC (92210.21), transmitter (92210.22), screw set (92210.23).

What to do in case of loss of control during flight?

Immediately reduce throttle and make tight right turns to lose altitude. If the wind becomes too strong, begin an emergency landing procedure facing into the wind.

Safety notes regarding power sources (Transmitter Sky Surfer 2.0)

• Never attempt to charge any battery which is not specifically stated to be rechargeable.
• Unless the instructions expressly state otherwise, always remove rechargeable batteries from the device before charging them.
• Rechargeable batteries must only be charged under the supervision of an adult.
• If you are using dry cells, never use different cell types, nor a mixture of new and used cells.
• Use only batteries of the recommended type, or their exact equivalent.
  • Always take care to insert battery cells with correct polarity.
• When dry cells are exhausted, remove them from the device immediately.
  • Take care not to short-circuit battery terminals.
• Never use defective or damaged rechargeable or dry batteries, or packs consisting of different cell types.

Warnings relating to the use of LiPo batteries (Sky Surfer 2.0)

Lithium-Polymer (abbreviation: LiPo) batteries require particularly careful handling. This applies to charging and discharging techniques, and also to storage and other aspects of general handling. Special measures must be observed, and these are outlined below.

- Mishandling these batteries may lead to explosions, fire, smoke and a risk of poisoning. In addition to these hazards ignoring our instructions and warnings will result in loss of battery performance and other problems.

The capacity of a LiPo battery declines every time you charge or discharge it. Storing these batteries at excessively high or low temperatures may also cause a gradual reduction in capacity. In typical modelling usage these batteries will be subject to high discharge currents and motor induction currents, with the result that their capacity will fall to around 50 - 80% of the capacity of a new battery after 50 charge / discharge cycles even if you observe all the

charge and discharge requirements.

LiPo batteries must not be thrown in a fire or incinerated.

• LiPo cells must not be allowed to come into contact with fluids such as water, salt water or drinks, even for a very short period. Avoid all contact with liquids of any type.
  Individual cells and packs made up of cells are not playthings, and must not be allowed into • hands of children. Store batteries and cells well out of the reach of children.

- Batteries must be kept out of the reach of babies and small children at all times. If a battery should be swallowed, seek emergency medical attention immediately.

Batteries must not be placed in a microwave oven or subjected to pressure. This may result in smoke and fire or even worse.

Never dismantle a LiPo battery. Dismantling a pack may cause internal short-circuits, with the possible results of gassing, fi re, explosion and other problems.

LiPo batteries contain toxic electrolytes and electrolyte vapours which are damaging to health. Take great care to avoid direct contact with electrolyte. If electrolyte contacts your skin, eyes or any other body part, immediately wash it off using plenty of clean water, then consult a doctor.

The company of Graupner GmbH & Co. KG is unable to ensure that you use the correct methods to charge and discharge these cells, and for this reason we are obliged to refute any claim under guarantee if the cells have been charged or discharged incorrectly.

Additional notes on handling LiPo batteries

For the charging of LiPo battery packs use only the licensed chargers with their corresponding connecting leads. Any manipulation of the charger or of the charging lead may cause serious damages. By means of the charger you have the full and absolutely imperative control of each single cell of the battery pack.

- The battery to be charged must be placed on a non-flammable, heat resistant and non-conductive surface. Keep inflammable and volatile materials well away from the charging area. Batteries must not be left on charge unsupervised.

- Avoid short-circuits. Never short-circuit these batteries. Shorting the terminals allows a very high current to flow, and this heats up the cells. This in turn may lead to a loss of electrolyte, gassing (venting of gas) or even an explosion. When handling Graupner LiPo batteries keep them well away from conductive objects and surfaces to avoid the danger of a short-circuit.

It is essential to avoid cell voltages above 4.25 V, as higher voltages cause permanent damage to the cells and cause fire.

- Take great care never to charge these batteries with reversed polarity. If batteries are charged with reversed polarity abnormal chemical reactions take place, causing cell ruptures, smoke and flames, and the battery gets useless.

The permissible range of temperature during the charging and storing of LiPo batteries is • from 0 – 50°C.

- Storing: LiPo cells should be stored with a charged capacity of 10 – 20 %. If the voltage of the cells go down under 3 V, it is absolutely imperative to recharge them (10-20 %). Deep-discharging and storing in a discharged condition (cell voltage under 3 V) render the battery useless.

Batteries must not be placed in a microwave oven or subjected to pressure. This may result • in smoke and fire or even worse.

Never dismantle a LiPo battery. Dismantling a pack may cause internal short-circuits, with the possible results of gassing, fire, explosion and other problems.

Damaged cells must never be re-used.

Indications of damage include broken housings, distortion of battery cells, escaping elec-•

trolyte or a smell of electrolyte. If your LiPo battery exhibits any of these problems it must not be used again.

Damaged or exhausted cells constitute toxic waste and must be disposed of in the appropriate manner.

Batteries which are build in a device should always be removed if the device is not to be used immediately.

Always switch equipment off after use in order to avoid the cells becoming deep-discharged.

Recharge batteries in good time. Do not use deep-discharged batteries again.

Safety notes

Do not touch the propeller!•

Keep away all body parts, clothing and other items from the range of the propeller.

- If the rotors are damaged or broken, do not attempt to fly the model again, as it will be uncontrollable and could injure you.

Never try to open the model or modify its construction.

The operator of the model must be in full possession of his or her bodily and mental faculties. As with car driving, operating a model aircraft under the influence of alcohol or drugs is not permissible under any circumstances.

• The Sky Surfer is indeed easy to fly, but you should never endanger others.
• Never fly towards people or animals or even fly over them.
- The motor of the Sky Surfer 2.0 gets very hot during operation, so it has to cool down before the next launch at least 20 minutes - otherwise the motor can be damaged!

Use only the recommended power battery. Batteries over 20C may not be used under any circumstances, otherwise the motor may be damaged!

Make sure that the transmitter is turned off - ON / OFF switch down.

Open the battery compartment cover on the back of the transmitter and insert four AA bat-• teries or rechargeable batteries. Ensure correct polarity!

Close the battery compartment cover.

Now turn on the transmitter. The LED lits red.

• A flashing red LED and a beep sound indicates low transmitter voltage, do not operate the model and change the transmitter batteries first - or charge the transmitter batteries.
• This is also during operation. Once the LED on the transmitter begins to flash or the low voltage alarm will sound, stop flying immediately and change batteries - or charge the transmitter batteries.

Binding:

This allows the transmitter to connect to the receiver. The components must be connected once, this process is called „binding“. This binding is the Sky Surfer 2.0 is already done in advance, so you can fly your model right away. In case of a binding should be necessary later, do the following:

Make sure that no other 2.4 GHz transmitter (eg. WLAN) is turned on in the area.

Turn the radio and then the Sky Surfer on.

• Now press the button on the receiver-ESC unit of the Sky Surfer, the LED will start flashing red after a short time. After a few seconds it should turn solid green again, the binding is successful.
  • If the LED continues to flash red, repeat the process.

Sky Surfer 2.0 Trimm functions:

The two sticks are equipped with digital trims. A quick press of a button adjusts the neutral position to a certain value.

• Turn on the transmitter first, then the model.
- Move the left throttle all the way up, then all the way down (see illustration).
- The motor must not start now, if not press the lower left trim button until the motor stops.

Now move the right joystick to the middle. The red servo arm underneath the motor must be absolutely horizontal. To move it clockwise, press the right trim button, press the left in order to move the servo arm counterclockwise.

- Use this option even in flight trim. With the right control lever in the middle, the Sky Surfer must fly exactly straight. If the Sky Surfer flies a left curve, press the right trim button until it flies straight ahaed. Accordingly, press the left button trim, when he flies to the right.

5. Landing the Sky Surfer 2.0

Watch the flight time. After 8-10 minutes (depending on wind conditions) the battery is weak and you must initiate the landing.

Note: if the battery is too weak, the model can no longer be controlled, which makes the landing much more diffi cult.

1. Rotate the model in the wind direction at a height of 20 - 30 m to prepare for landing.
2. Keep attention to the height and position, do not descent too fast and navigate to your landing site.
3. At about 10 m altitude the final landing phase begins. Slowly release the accelerator to control the descent angle and land safely.

If the wind freshens up unexpectedly during the flight and makes the control of your Sky Surfer difficult or impossible, immediately make an emergency landing and wait until the wind stagnates.

1. The landing must be done always against the wind to reduce speed and allow a soft touchdown.

Note the wind direction! Always start against the wind direction.

Turn OFF the Sky Surfer fi rst and then the transmitter.

The motor of the Sky Surfer 2.0 gets very hot during operation, so it has to cool down before the next launch at least 20 minutes - otherwise the motor can be damaged!

After use unplug the fl ight battery and remove it from the model!

We wish you loads of fun and pleasure fl ying your Sky Surfer 2.0!

6. Care and maintenance

• Clean the model carefully after every fl ying session.
• The model and the remote control system components should only be cleaned using suitable materials.

The correct method of disposal is to take it to your local collection point for recycling electrical and electronic equipment. The symbol shown here, which may be found on the product itself, in the operating instructions or on the packaging, indicates that this is the case.

Individual markings indicate which materials can be recycled and re-used. You can make an important contribution to the protection of our common environment by re-using the product, recycling the basic materials or recycling redundant equipment in other ways.

Environmental Protection Notes

Important information regarding the disposal of dry and rechargeable batteries:

In Germany the Battery Regulation places a legal requirement on all consumers to return all used and exhausted dry and rechargeable batteries. It is prohibited to discard these items through the domestic refuse system. Old dry and rechargeable batteries can be handed in at no charge at your local community collection point, at our dealers, and at any other retail outlet where dry and rechargeable batteries of the same type are sold.

An alternative method of disposal for any exhausted battery which we originally supplied is to send it to us, with pre-paid postage, at the following address.

You can make an important contribution to the protection of our shared environment in this way.

Dry and rechargeable batteries which contain harmful materials are marked with the following symbols, in order to draw attention to the fact that they must not be discarded through the household refuse system.

Under each symbol is stated the chemical symbol for the toxic metal concerned.

1) Cd: cadmium

Manufacturer's declaration declaration by GRAUPNER GmbH & Co. KG, Henriettenstr. 94 - 96, D-73230 Kirchheim/Teck, Germany

Content of the manufacturer's declaration:

If material defects or manufacturing faults should arise in a product distributed by us in the Federal Republic of Germany and purchased by a consumer ( § 13 BGB ), we, GRAUPNER GmbH & Co. KG, Kirchheim/Teck, acknowledge the obligation to correct those defects within the limitations described below.

The consumer is not entitled to exploit this manufacturer's declaration if the failure in the usability of the product is due to natural wear, use under competition conditions, incompetent or improper use (including incorrect installation) or external influences.

This manufacturer's declaration does not affect the consumer's legal or contractual rights regarding defects arising from the purchase contract between the consumer and the vendor (dealer).

Extent of the guarantee

If a claim is made under guarantee, we undertake at our discretion to repair or replace the defective goods. We will not consider supplementary claims, especially for reimbursement of costs relating to the defect (e.g. installation / removal costs) and compensation for consequent damages unless they are allowed by statute. This does not affect claims based on legal regulations, especially according to product liability law.

Guarantee requirements

The purchaser is required to make the guarantee claim in writing, and must enclose original proof of purchase (e.g. invoice, receipt, delivery note) and this guarantee card. He must send the defective goods to us at his own cost, using the following address:

Service Department, GRAUPNER GmbH & Co. KG, Henriettenstr. 94 - 96, D-73230 Kirchheim/Teck, Germany

The purchaser should state the material defect or manufacturing fault, or the symptoms of the fault, in as accurate a manner as possible, so that we can check if our guarantee obligation is applicable.

The goods are transported from the consumer to us and from us to the consumer at the risk of the consumer.

Duration of validity

This declaration only applies to claims made to us during the claim period as stated in this declaration. The claim period is 24 months from the date of purchase of the product by the consumer from a dealer in the Federal Republic of Germany (date of purchase). If a defect arises after the end of the claim period, or if the evidence or documents required according to this declaration in order to make the claim valid are not presented until after this period, then the consumer forfeits any rights or claims from this declaration.

Limitation by lapse of time

If we do not acknowledge the validity of a claim based on this declaration within the claim period,

all claims based on this declaration are barred by the statute of limitations after six months from the time of implementation; however, this cannot occur before the end of the claim period.

Applicable law

This declaration, and the claims, rights and obligations arising from it, are based exclusively on the pertinent German Law, without the norms of international private law, and excluding UN retail law.
