Welcome to one of the most exciting and unique park fl yer experiences you will ever have. Compared to the Spartan look of most World War I airplanes, the 
smooth, rounded fuselage and fl owing lines of the Albatros D.Va made it one of the more daring designs of its time. The ParkZone team has done a fantastic job 
of recreating this Western Front warrior without sacrifi cing any of the smooth fl ying characteristics you’ve come to expect from a park fl yer. 
Before you take your fi rst fl ight though, you must read this manual. Along with the assembly instructions, you’ll fi nd all kinds of important setup tips that will 
make your fi rst fl ight, and everyone after, the best it can be.
