knowledgeable adult. 

Before building and operating your G56, YOU MUST read through all of the operating instructions and instruction manual and fully 
understand  them  to  get  the  maximum  enjoyment  and  prevent  unnecessary  damage.  Read  carefully  and  fully  understand  the

Contents of the box may differ from pictures. In line with our policy of continuous product development, the exact specifications of 
the kit may vary without prior notice. 

Take appropriate safety precautions prior to operating this model. You are responsible for this model‘s assembly and safe operation! 
Please read the instruction manual before building and operating this model and follow all safety precautions 

IMPORTANT NOTES – GENERAL 

• This product is not suitable for children under 16 years of age without the direct supervision of a responsible and knowledgeable 
adult. 
• Carefully read all manufacturers warnings and cautions for any parts used in the construction and use of your model. 
• Assemble this kit only in places away from the reach of very small children. 
• First-time builders and users should seek advice from people who have building experience in order to assemble the model correctly 
and to allow the model to reach its performance potential. 
• Exercise care when using tools and sharp instruments. 
• Take care when building, as some parts may have sharp edges. 
• Keep small parts out of reach of small children. Children must not be allowed to put any parts in their mouth, or pull vinyl bag over 
their head. 
• Read and follow instructions supplied with paints and/or cement, if used (not included in kit). 
• Immediately after using your model, do NOT touch equipment on the model such as the motor and speed controller, because they 
generate high temperatures. You may seriously burn yourself seriously touching them. 
• Follow the operating instructions for the radio equipment at all times. 
• Do not put fingers or any objects inside rotating and moving parts, as this may cause damage or serious injury as your finger, hair, 
clothes, etc. may get caught. 
• Be sure that your operating frequency is clear before turning on or running your model, and never share the same frequency with 
somebody else at the same time. Ensure that others are aware of the operating frequency you are using and when you are using it. 
• Use a transmitter designed for ground use with RC cars. Make sure that no one else is using the same frequency as yours in your 
operating area. Using the same frequency at the same time, whether it is driving, flying or sailing, can cause loss of control of the RC 
model, resulting in a serious accident. 
•  Always  turn  on  your  transmitter  before  you  turn  on  the  receiver  in  the  car.  Always  turn  off  the  receiver  before  turning  your 
transmitter off. 
• Keep the wheels of the model off the ground when checking the operation of the radio equipment. 
• Disconnect the battery pack before storing your model.  
• When learning to operate your model, go to an area that has no obstacles that can damage your model if your model suffers a 
collision. 
• Remove any sand, mud, dirt, grass or water before putting your model away. 
• If the model behaves strangely, immediately stop the model, check and clear the problem. 
• To prevent any serious personal injury and/or damage to property, be responsible when operating all remote controlled models. 
• The model car is not intended for use on public places and roads or areas where its operation can conflict with or disrupt pedestrian 
or vehicular traffic. 
• Because the model car is controlled by radio, it is subject to radio interference from many sources that are beyond your control. 
Since radio interference can cause momentary loss of control, always allow a safety margin in all directions around the model in order 
to prevent collisions. 
• Do not use your model: 
- Near real cars, animals, or people that are unaware that an RC car is being driven. 
- In places where children and people gather 
- In residential districts and parks 
- In limited indoor spaces 
- In wet conditions 
- In the street 
- In areas where loud noises can disturb others, such as hospitals and residential areas. 
- At night or anytime your line of sight to the model may be obstructed or impaired in any way. 
To  prevent  any  serious  personal  injury  and/or  damage  to  property,  please  be  responsible  when  operating  all  remote  controlled 
models. 
Failure to follow these instructions will be considered as abuse and/or neglect. 
We have made every effort to make these instructions as easy to understand as possible.
