BATTERY PRECAUTIONS

The RISE Vusion uses a lithium polymer (LiPo) battery. Follow these precautions to ensure safe and 
trouble-free operation.

•  ALWAYS disconnect the battery from the quadcopter when not in use.
•  Do not attempt to use this charger with NiCd or NiMH battery packs.
•  Do not attempt to use a damaged battery.
•  This product contains a LiPo battery that must be recycled or disposed of properly.
•  Do not leave the charger unattended while charging. Disconnect the battery and unplug the charger 

immediately if either becomes hot! However, it is normal for the charger to get warm.

•  Disconnect the battery from the charger and carefully move the battery to a fireproof location if the battery 

begins to swell or smoke!

•  Never allow the battery temperature to exceed 140° F [60° C].
•  Do not attempt to charge a battery if it is swollen or hot.
•  Do not place the charger or any battery on a flammable surface or near combustible materials while in use.
•  Never disassemble or modify pack wiring in any way or puncture cells.
•  Never charge inside a vehicle.
•  Always disconnect the battery and unplug the charger when not in use.
•  Land your model immediately when the LEDs flash to indicate that the battery power is low. Recharge the 

battery before attempting another flight. A dangerous situation can occur when attempting to recharge an 
over-discharged battery!

•  ALWAYS keep a supply of sand accessible when charging. Dumping sand on the battery will extinguish a LiPo 

chemical fire.

•  ALWAYS KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN

IMPORTANT NOTICE!

In the USA, this model requires the pilot to be registered with 
the FAA. Visit

 for details.

The Vusion with the 200mW VTX requires a HAM Technicians license to operate legally in the 
USA. This involves a 35-question multiple-choice test and a small fee. You can contact an amateur 
radio club in your area for assistance or visit these links:

Customers outside of the USA should understand and follow all telecommunications or other 
regulations in your area.
