F-27 Stryker Instruction Manual
Congratulations on your purchase of the ParkZone
™
F-27 Stryker
™
. Your Stryker has come with everything
needed to get you in the air—all in one box! You will
only need to attach the vertical fins, attach the nose,
and charge the battery prior to flight.
We at ParkZone are committed to giving you the
most enjoyable flight experience you can have.
In order to ensure a safe and successful flight,
we ask that you do not fly until you have read
these instructions thoroughly.
Your F-27 Stryker comes with a fully proportional
3-channel FM radio system with full control of throttle,
steering and pitch. If you have not successfully flown
one of HobbyZone’s Zone 1 or 2 aircraft, or any other
radio controlled aircraft, we strongly recommend that
you seek the help of an experienced radio control pilot
during your beginning flights.
Crash damage is not covered under the warranty!
Your F-27 Stryker comes with special software that
gives you the ability to change flight modes as you
gain more experience and become more advanced
in your flying. There are two independent modes to
select from. This is done easily with a switch on
the transmitter.

Step 2
Transmitter
1. Insert 8 new “AA” batteries (supplied) into the

2. Turn switch on to ensure the batteries have been
installed correctly. Once this is confirmed, turn
radio off.

Charging the Aircraft Battery
Your ParkZone charger uses unique peak detection
circuitry that ensures an accurate charge every time and
protects your Ni-Cd and Ni-MH batteries from the dangers
of over-charging. During the charge cycle, it continuously
monitors the charge curve and automatically switches to
trickle charge when the peak is detected.
Important: The F-27 Stryker airplane battery should be
charged shortly before flying. If you charge the battery
12 to 24 hours prior to flying, you will need to “re-peak”
the battery before you fly by repeating the charging steps.
