1.3 General Safety Precautions
In addition to other warnings and other precautions in this manual, the following should always be
observed:
 The Vector is intended for recreational use only, in model aircraft. Any other use is not supported.
 Never connect ESCs or servos to the Vector until you have verified the airframe type is correctly
selected! Doing so can cause multirotor propellers to spin at high speed, or can destroy fixed wing
servos.
 Always remove propeller(s) or otherwise disable motor(s) when configuring the Vector!
 Always move a safe distance away from the model before starting the motor(s), and never approach the
model with the propeller(s) spinning! Never approach a multirotor when it is armed!
 Always wear eye protection when operating models with propellers!
