SECTION I
SAFETY FIRST FOR YOURSELF, FOR OTHERS
AND FOR YOUR EQUIPMENT.
“Safety First” is more than just a slogan when operating
radio control models. Thus, we urge, especially with
respect to radio controlled aircraft that:
FOR YOUR SAFETY:
Recognize that radio controlled models are not harmless
toys and can be dangerous missiles if carelessly or
improperly flown. You are responsible because the
reliability and safe operation of the radio equipment is
largely dependent upon its proper installation and
utilization.
THEREFORE, INSTALL YOUR RADIO CONTROL
SYSTEM CORRECTLY AND BE CERTAIN YOU
CAN FLY WELL ENOUGH TO CONTROL YOUR
AIRCRAFT UNDER ALL CONDITIONS.
