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 fl ying experiences available. The 
Ultra Micro Series F-27Q Stryker packs the punch of an E-fl ite® 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 fl at 
spins, Snap Rolls, blenders and more. And you get this awesome performance without having 
to sacrifi ce any of the smooth, predictable fl ight characteristics that have made every Stryker a 
sport pilot favorite.

Before you take your fi rst fl ight, however, you must thoroughly read this manual. The Ultra Micro 
Series F-27Q is considerably faster than many of the ultra micro aircraft you may be used to 
fl ying. Carefully following the setup and binding instructions in this manual will help ensure that 
fi rst fl ight, and every one after, is as rewarding (and safe) as it can be.
