airplane. ParkZone’s Etomic

 family of innovative ultra-micro flyers 

makes micro flight a reality for everyone. Proportional, multi-channel, 
2.4GHz Spektrum

 radio technology provides precise control for 

amazing, ready-to-fly indoor fun. Your Ember 2 comes pre-assembled 
with everything needed to get you in the air—all in one box. You only 
need to charge the flight battery prior to your first flight. In as little as 30 
minutes, you can be ready to fly.

building skills. Your ParkZone Ember 2 will allow you to perform many 
aerobatic maneuvers, all in an area the size of half a basketball court.

We at ParkZone are committed to giving you the most enjoyable flight 
experience possible. In order to have a safe and successful flight, we ask 
that you do not fly until you have read these instructions thoroughly. To 
learn more about DSM2 radio technology, and how to get the most of 
your Ember 2 transmitter, please visit

including a 2.4GHz Spektrum DSM2 fully proportional 3–channel radio 
system with full control of throttle, rudder and elevator. Your Ember 2 
also comes complete with the latest in lightweight electronic speed  
control technology, two linear servos, a 3.7V 70mAh Li-Po flight battery
