Engine Size:.91 Max. Engine Size:.1.0 The GLOGO 690 is not recommended for novices. This helicopter is a complex system. Basic knowledge of the function of a model helicopter is required to build and operate the The GLOGO 690 with the nitro engine. We recommend a VBar NEO with Pro Version (required) as well as an external RPM Sensor (e.g. Spartan SRC-RPM), together with VBar Control Touch with VBar NEO Basice App, or VBar Control with VBar NEO Basic, VBar NEO Pro and VBar NEO Nitro Apps. Legacy VBars black/blueline/silverline can be used, but the Governor will have to be set up manually. A Mini VBar is not suitable, because of the missing Governor feature and and the missing connections.

You may use different brands. 5 Minute Epoxy circlips pliers Threadlock Scissors Pitch Gauge Grease OPERATING YOUR MODEL SAFELY Operate the helicopter in spacious areas with no people nearby.!warning: Do NOT operate the helicopter in the following places and situations (or else you risk severe accidents): in places where children gather or people pass through in residential areas and parks indoors and in limited space in windy weather or when there is any rain, snow, fog or other precipitation If you do not observe these instructions you may be held reliable for personal injury or property damage! Always check the R/C system prior to operating your helicopter. When the R/C system batteries get weaker, the operational range of the R/C system decreases. Note that you may lose control of your model when operating it under such conditions. Keep in mind that other people around you might also be operating a R/C model. Never use a frequency which someone else is using at the same time. Radio signals will be mixed and you will lose control of your model. If the model shows irregular behavior, bring the model to a halt immediately. Turn off all power switches and disconnect the batteries. Investigate the reason and fix the problem. Do not operate the model again as long as the problem is not solved, as this may lead to further trouble and unforeseen accidents.! Warning: In order to prevent accidents and personal injury, be sure to observe the following: Before flying the helicopter, ensure that all screws are tightened. A single loose screw may cause a major accident. Replace all broken or defective parts with new ones, as damaged parts lead to crashes. Never approach a spinning rotor. Keep at least 10 meters/yards away from a spinning rotor blades. Do not touch the motor immediately after use. It may be hot enough to cause burns. Perform all necessary maintenance. PRIOR TO ADJUSTING AND OPERATING YOUR MO- DEL, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING!Warning: Operate the helicopter only outdoors and out of people s reach as the main rotor operates at high rpm!! Warning: While adjusting, stand at least 10 meters/ yards away from the helicopter! Novice R/C helicopter pilots should always seek advice from experienced pilots to obtain hints with assembly and for pre-flight adjustments. Note that a badly assembled or insufficiently adjusted helicopter is a safety hazard! In the beginning, novice R/C helicopter pilots should always be assisted by an experienced pilot and never fly alone!
