AEKA30449R/C MINI JET HOVERCRAFT

•No wheels •Goes on floor, dirt, pavement, ice, snow •Multi-terrain capable •Goes on fresh water (pool, pond or lake, not salt/sea/ ocean water) •True amphibious hovercraft •High-power, double motor design •Real rubber air bag skirt •Rides on cushion of air created by lift fan blowing downward and into air bag “skirt”. •Needs flat, smooth, clean surface so skirt can “seal” with ground for best results. •Not for use on rough or broken pavement/ground, carpet, rocks, pebbles, grass, decking, hills, inclines or any surface that “lets the air out” or damages skirt. •Pilot must keep craft within radio and battery life range on water to ensure retrieval. •Not a boat; needs lift fan on with full power and air bag skirt inflated to float properly. •Battery life 10-15 minutes between charges, depending on battery. •Skirt is durable but can puncture on sharp rocks, sticks. OWNER’S MANUAL Important! Please read your Owner’s Manual all the way through before operating your hovercraft. Contains important information—keep for future reference. Safety First •Adult supervision is recommended. •Adult supervision strongly recommended, and use extra caution, when playing near water or ice. Do not go onto ice on a lake or other body of water that might be dangerous if it breaks. •Drive your hovercraft in a safe area away from people, pets, cars, etc. Not in streets, not in darkness! •Don’t touch or try to pick up hovercraft when it is in motion. Wait until it stops completely. •Keep hair, fingers, face and loose clothing away from top and rear propellers while the hovercraft is switched on or while the transmitter is operating. •Never block rotation of top lift fan or stick any object through top, bottom or rear grilles. •Do not drive hovercraft into walls or other hard objects. •Be a responsible Mini Jet Hovercraft™ operator! NOTICE: EXOTIC HOVERCRAFT! NOTE SPECIAL OPERATING CONDITIONS How it Works Lift fan/air compressor blows downward, inflating air bag skirt, which seals with the ground and creates a cushion of air under the hovercraft. Propellers at rear of hovercraft provide thrust for movement along the ground. Surface Air Bag Skirt Motor Body Air Flow Fan Batteries and Charger (included) TAIYO exclusive 6.0-Volt Rechargeable NiMH Battery Pack and Battery Charger for NiMH Battery Packs (This 6.0V NiMH Battery Pack is specially developed for this MINI JET HOVERCRAFT) One 9-Volt (6F22) Battery for Transmitter (not rechargeable) Battery Cautions CAUTION: TO AVOID BATTERY LEAKAGE 1.Make sure the batteries are inserted correctly and follow the toy and battery manufacturer’s instructions. 2.Make sure battery polarity (direction) is correct. 3.Use only battery type(s) recommended. 4.Remove rechargeable batteries from the product before charging. Recharge batteries only under adult supervision and follow the battery and charger manufacturers’ instructions. Other Battery Cautions 1.Use caution removing battery from hovercraft after use. Battery may be hot. 2.Never pull the battery pack out of the hovercraft by the wire or plug. Never unplug the battery plug by pulling on the battery. 3.Remove batteries from the product for storage. 4.Do not recharge non-rechargeable batteries. 5.Do not short-circuit battery terminals. 6.Dispose of batteries safely and properly, according to your local requirements. NOTE: NICKEL METAL HYDRIDE BATTERIES MUST BE RECYCLED OR DISPOSED PROPERLY. Battery Charging and Care (Batteries and Charger included) Hovercraft will not run without a TAIYO exclusive 6.0V rechargeable NiMH battery pack and matching charger, adult supervision of battery charging is recommended. ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT BATTERY SAFETY INFORMATION • Regularly examine charger and battery pack for damage, including plugs, casings and all other parts. If damaged, do not use. • Not a toy—not intended for children under 3 years old. • Make sure the batteries are inserted with the correct polarity and follow the toy and battery manufacturers’ instructions. • Remove weak or exhausted batteries from the product. • An adult should help with battery replacement • Only batteries of the same or equivalent type as recommended in the “Battery Installation” (or replacement) instructions are to be used. • Non-rechargeable batteries are not to be recharged. • If removable rechargeable batteries are used, they are only to be charged under adult supervision. • Rechargeable batteries are to be removed from the product before they are charged. • If you use a battery charger, it should be examined regularly for damage to the cord, plug, enclosure and other parts. Do not use a damaged battery charger until it has been properly repaired. •Dispose of batteries safely and properly. THIS PRODUCT USES A NICKEL METAL HYDRIDE BATTERY. MUST BE RECYCLED OR DISPOSED PROPERLY. Contact your local area office of solid waste management or other appropriate local agency for information. Running and Charging Times 1.NiMH battery packs are not like alkaline batteries. They lose all their power suddenly, not gradually, and hovercraft will stop very soon after slowing down becomes noticeable, with little warning. This is normal, but keep it in mind, especially when operating on water, since you need to get the hovercraft back before the battery power runs out. 2.Typical running time will be between 10 - 15 minutes for a typical freshly charged NiMH battery pack in good condition, but do not rely on this until you observe how long your battery runs in your hovercraft under the conditions you operate in. Running time may vary over life of battery, with the first few charge cycles yielding shorter run times than later charges. NiMH BATTERY CHARGING INSTRUCTIONS NOTE: “CONDITION” BATTERY PACK FOR BEST RESULTS BY CHARGING ACCORDING TO THESE INSTRUCTIONS ON EVERY CHARGE. ON THE FIRST CHARGE, EXPECT A SHORTER RUN TIME. RUN TIMES WILL INCREASE OVER THE NEXT 6 CHARGES, REACHING SPECIFIED RUN TIMES. Drain Down — Cool Down — Charge Up 1.After the first charge, for best pe…

TAIYO KOGYO CO., LTD. SUBJECT: Circuit Descripton Reference: FCCID: AEKA30449 The A30449 transmitter is made up of the two stage RF section. The crystal Oscillator Q3 is a bipolar transistor. The signal from the Crystal oscillator is fed through the tuned circuit made up of L1 & C4 and then coupled to the output stage Q4. From Q4 the signal is coup[led to a tuned circuit made up of L2 and then coupled to a low pass filter through C12. The low pass filter is made up of C13, L3, and C14. Modulation for this unit is pulse position and this is provided by IC1, the modulation is varied by the switches, S2, S3, S4 & S5. The EUT also includes a battery charging intergraded circuit, IC2 that prevents over charging the re-chargable batteries. Form Letters6 Rev 25 June03

FCC ID: AEKA30449 REPORT #: T\Taiyo_AEK\99JT4\99JT4TestReport.doc Page 2 of 5 TEST PROCEDURE GENERAL: This report shall NOT be reproduced except in full without the written approval of TIMCO ENGINEERING, INC. RADIATION INTERFERENCE: The test procedure used was ANSI STANDARD C63.4-1992 using a HEWLETT PACKARD spectrum analyzer with a pre-selector. The bandwidth of the spectrum analyzer was 100 kHz with an appropriate sweep speed. The analyzer was calibrated in dB above a microvolt at the output of the antenna. The resolution bandwidth was 100 kHz and the video bandwidth was 300 kHz. The ambient temperature of the UUT was 80ºC with a humidity of 76%. FORMULA OF CONVERSION FACTORS: The Field Strength at 3m was established by adding the meter reading of the spectrum analyzer (which is set to read in units of dBuV) to the antenna correction factor supplied by the antenna manufacturer. The antenna correction factors are stated in terms of dB. The gain of the Pre- selector was accounted for in the Spectrum Analyzer Meter Reading. Example: Freq (MHz) METER READING + ACF = FS 33 20 dBuV + 10.36 dB = 30.36 dBuV/m @ 3m ANSI STANDARD C63.4-1992 10.1.7 MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES: The unit under test was placed on a table 80 cm high and with dimensions of 1m by 1.5m. The table used for radiated measurements is capable of continuous rotation. When an emission was found, the table was rotated to produce the maximum signal strength. At this point, the antenna was raised and lowered from 1m to 4m. The antenna was placed in both the horizontal and vertical planes.

TEST PROCEDURE: The procedure used was ANSI STANDARD C63.4-1992. The spectrum was scanned from 30 MHz to 1000 MHz. When an emission was found, the table was rotated to produce the maximum signal strength. The antenna was placed in both the horizontal and vertical planes and the worse case emissions were reported. The UUT was tested in 3 orthogonal planes. TEST RESULTS: THE UNIT DOES MEET THE FCC REQUIREMENTS.
