Using this Angry Birds Red Flying Hero is super easy. First, hold the launcher firmly in your hand. Then, place 'Red' in the launcher. Look up and aim in the direction you want 'Red' to fly. Next, pull the rip cord hard and watch 'Red' zoom into the sky. When 'Red' lands, pick him up and put him back in the launcher to do it all over again. As for maintenance, keep it clean by using a dry cloth to wipe it down if it gets dirty. Don't expose it to extreme heat or cold, as this might damage the launcher. Also, be careful when pulling the rip cord to avoid any injuries. Have fun playing with your Angry Birds Red Flying Hero!
