Thank you for purchasing the ParkZone® Ultra Micro Series F-27Q Stryker 180. You’re just a battery charge away from one of the most exciting ultra micro flying experiences available. The Ultra Micro Series F-27Q Stryker packs the punch of an E-flite® 3000Kv 180 brushless outrunner motor that delivers exhilarating speed and climb performance, just like the big F-27Q. It also has functional twin rudders so you can push the limits with extreme aerobatic maneuvers like flat spins, Snap Rolls, blenders and more.
Charging the Battery Your Ultra Micro Stryker comes with a Celectra™ 2S 7.4V DC Li-Po Charger and 2-Cell 7.4V 200mAh 25C Li-Po battery. Please visit www.horizonhobby.com for optional battery adapters. Refer to battery warnings. It is recommended to charge the battery pack while you are inspecting the aircraft. The flight battery will be required to confirm proper aircraft operation in future steps. 2S 7.4V 200mAh 25C Lithium Polymer Battery The Battery Charging Process 1.
Battery Warnings The Battery Charger (EFLCU1007) included with the Ultra Micro Stryker has been designed to safely charge the Li-Po battery. CAUTION: All instructions and warnings must be followed exactly. Mishandling of Li-Po batteries can result in a fire, personal injury and/or property damage. • • • By handling, charging or using the included Li-Po battery, you assume all risks associated with lithium batteries. • If at any time the battery begins to balloon or swell, discontinue use immediately.
Transmitter and Receiver Binding Binding is the process of programming the receiver of the control unit to recognize the GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) code of a single specific transmitter. You need to ‘bind’ your chosen SpektrumTM DSM2TM/DSMX® technology equipped aircraft transmitter to the receiver for proper operation. For a list of compatible DSM2TM/DSMX® transmitters, please visit www.bindnfly.com.
First Flight Preparation 7. Perform the Control Direction Test with the transmitter. 8. Adjust flight controls and transmitter. 9. Adjust battery for center of gravity (CG). 10. Perform a radio system Range Check. 11. Find a safe and open area. 12. Plan flight for flying field conditions. 1. Remove and inspect box contents. 2. Read this instruction manual thoroughly. 3. Install Flight battery in the airplane (once it has been fully charged). 4. Bind aircraft to your transmitter. 5.
Adjusting Center of Gravity (CG) Balance the model on the edge of a metal ruler to find the Center of Gravity. Place the ruler at the bottom side of the fuselage. The recommended CG location is 67mm (2.6 inches) forward from the firewall at the back of the fuselage. This CG location has been determined with the included 2S 200mAh 7.4V Li-Po battery installed approximately in the center of the battery cavity. The battery cavity is oversized to allow for Center of Gravity adjustment.
Transmitter and Model Setup Transmitter Setup Flying wings are controlled by elevons (moveable surfaces on the wing). Elevons take the aileron control (move opposite directions), and elevator control (move up/down same direction) and mixes them together electronically through the transmitter. Make sure both elevons move up and down (travel) the same amount. This model tracks well when the left and right elevon travel the same amount in response to the control stick.
Control Direction Test Bind your aircraft and transmitter before doing these tests (see Binding). Move the controls on the transmitter to make sure aircraft control surfaces move correctly (Mode 2 shown). After doing the Control Test, correctly set the failsafe. Make sure the transmitter controls are neutral and the throttle and throttle trim are in the low position, then rebind the model to your transmitter.
Motor Service CAUTION: Always keep hands away from the propeller, ESC and motor while the flight battery is connected. Failure to do so could result in personal injury. Diassembly A 1. Remove front canopy (A) from the fuselage. 2. Disconnect battery from ESC. 3. Remove battery from hook and loop strips in fuselage. 4. Cut tape on one side of fuselage for the rear hatch. Move the rear hatch, using the remaining tape as a hinge. 5. Disconnect motor connector from ESC/ receiver connector. 6.
Flying Tips and Repairs For your first flights, set your transmitter timer to 5 minutes. Adjust your timer for longer or shorter flights once you have flown the model. Range Check your Radio System After final assembly, range check the radio system with the Ultra Micro Stryker. Refer to your specific transmitter instruction manual for range test information. Over Current Protection (OCP) CAUTION: Keep hands away from the propeller.
Additional Safety Precautions and Warnings • Always carefully follow the directions and warnings for this and any optional support equipment (chargers, rechargeable battery packs, etc.). • Always keep all chemicals, small parts and anything electrical out of the reach of children. • Always avoid water exposure to all equipment not specifically designed and protected for this purpose. Moisture causes damage to electronics.
Replacing Vertical Fins A B 1. When a vertical fin or rudder is damaged beyond repair using foam-compatible CA, disconnect linkage from control horn. 2. Carefully cut vertical fin from housing in fuselage. 3. Clean glue from fuselage housing. 4. Attach new vertical fin and rudder (A) in fuselage housing (B) using foamcompatible CA (C). 5. Attach linkage to rudder’s control horn. C Replacing Sub-Fins D E 1.
Troubleshooting Guide Problem Aircraft will not respond to throttle but responds to other controls Possible Cause Solution Throttle stick and/or throttle trim is too high Reset controls with throttle stick and throttle trim at lowest setting Throttle channel is reversed Reverse throttle channel on transmitter Motor is unplugged from receiver Open fuselage and ensure the plug for the motor is properly installed Extra propeller noise or extra vibration Damaged propeller, prop shaft or motor Replace
