Thank you for purchasing Futaba Sky Leaf R/C airplane.

To maximize your enjoyment, and to ensure proper

ﬂying, please read through this assembly

instruction manual.

1. This product is only designed for use with radio control models. Use of the product described in this instruction manual is

limited to radio control models.

2. Modiﬁcation, adjustment, and parts replacement:

Futaba is not responsible for unauthorized modiﬁcation, adjustment, or replacement of parts on this product.

3. Your Sky Leaf should not be considered a toy, but rather a sophisticated, working model that functions very much like a full-

size airplane. Because of its performance capabilities, this airplane, if not assembled and operated correctly, could possibly

cause injury to yourself or spectators and damage to property.

4. You must assemble the model according to the instructions. Do not alter or modify the model, as doing so may result in an

unsafe or unﬂyable model. In a few cases the instructions may differ slightly from the ﬁgures. In those instances the written

instructions should be considered as correct.

5. You must take time to build straight, true and strong.

6. You must use an R/C radio system that is in good condition, a correctly sized motor/engine, and other components as

speciﬁed in this instruction manual. All components must be correctly installed so that the model operates correctly on the

ground and in the air. You must check the operation of the model and all components before every ﬂight.

7. If you are not an experienced pilot or have not ﬂown this type of model before, we recommend that you get the assistance

of an experienced pilot in your R/C club for your ﬁrst ﬂights. If you're not a member of a club, your local hobby shop has

information about clubs in your area whose membership includes experienced pilots.

8. While this kit has been ﬂight tested to exceed normal use, if the plane will be used for extremely high stress ﬂying, such

as racing, or if a motor larger then one in the recommended range is used, the modeler is responsible for taking steps to

reinforce the high stress points and/or substituting hardware more suitable for the increased stress.

No part of this manual may be reproduced in any form without prior permission.

The contents of this manual are subject to change without prior notice.

Please observe the following precautions to ensure safe use of this product at all times.

Meaning of Special Markings:

properly.

- Procedures which may lead to a dangerous condition or cause death or serious injury to the user if not
