F-27C Stryker Plug-N-Play Instruction Manual Congratulations on your purchase of the ParkZone® F-27C Stryker™ Plug-N-Play™ airplane. Your F-27C Stryker PNP comes almost fully assembled so you can get in the air quickly. It already has two 3-wire servos installed, along with a ParkZone 6-pole 1880Kv brushless motor and E-flite® 25 amp ESC. You only need to add your own 72MHz FM transmitter, with four or more channels, a receiver, and a 3S Li-Po battery pack.
Step 2 Attaching the Vertical Fins 1. Slide the fins into the slots on the fuselage. The leading edge of the fin should fit under the retainer that is already secured in the fuselage. 2. Confirm that the fit is tight and both fins are secured properly. Battery Cap Note: It may be helpful to add a few drops of CA to the front tips of the vertical stabs in order to keep them in place while flying your F-27C Stryker PNP.
PREPARING TO FLY Step 1 Setting Aileron and Elevator Throws The throws that we recommend you set-up for low rate are: Ailerons: +/- 7/16 inches (11mm) Elevator: +/- 3/8 inches (9mm) you give right aileron command, the right elevon should deflect upward, while the left deflects downward (and vice versa). The throws that we recommend you set-up for high rate are: When pulling the elevator stick back, the elevons should both Ailerons: +/- 5/8 inches (16mm) deflect upward.
Step 2 continued Keep any body parts, clothing and tools clear of the propeller arc. Never leave the battery connected when you are not flying the aircraft. Always remove the battery pack from the model before charging the battery, and when finished flying. Programming: The programming sequence of the E-flite 25A Brushless ESC uses an intuitive stick up=Full Throttle or stick down=Idle menu system that is designed to be very simple to learn and remember.
Step 2 continued these settings are not correct, it may be impossible to arm the controller. If this happens, return the input range setting to the default auto learning setting. The auto setting option learns the minimum position of your throttle (between 1.1 and 1.3mS), stores this value at each startup, and then adds a value of 0.6mS for the full throttle setting. Note: If you reverse the polarity of the ESC, you will destroy it. Do not allow the ESC to contract any moisture.
Step 5 Checking the Center of Gravity The correct center of gravity (CG) sits approximately 6 inches (15.25cm) in front of the trailing edge of the elevons and is based on using the ParkZone 3S 2200mAh Li-Po battery (PKZ1030). Molded round holes in each side of the finger holds on the bottom of the plane mark the correct CG location.
