2. Install the transmitter antenna by placing it into the
top of the transmitter and thread it into place.
❏
1. Plug the battery charger into a 12-volt power outlet
in a vehicle.
❏
2. Plug the battery pack into the charger connector.
Be careful - the battery pack will plug in only one way.
❏
3. Rotate the timer knob on the charger to 20 minutes.
Make sure the red light comes on.
❏
4. IMPORTANT! NEVER LEAVE A CHARGING BATTERY
UNATTENDED.
❏
5. During charging, feel the battery to see if it is
starting to warm up. A warmed up (but not hot) battery
pack is a sign that it is fully charged. Once the pack is
warm, disconnect it from the charger. Depending on
how much charge was already in the pack, you may
have to disconnect the battery early.
❏
6. Always disconnect the charger from the 12-volt
power outlet in your vehicle when finished charging.
❏
7. After each flight, remove the battery pack from the
airplane and allow it to cool completely before
recharging.
❏
1. Never leave a charging battery unattended.
❏
2 Never let the battery charge until it feels hot. A hot
battery is an overcharged battery. Only let the battery
get warm to the touch.
❏
3. If your battery is not completely discharged before
charging, the charging time may take less than 20
minutes. Again, only let the battery get warm to the
touch – not hot.
❏
4. We recommend that your vehicle’s engine is shut
off during charging. Charging the Sky Zap’s battery
while your vehicle’s engine is running increases the
chance of overcharging the battery.
