Step 2
Note: It may be helpful to add a few drops of CA to the front tips of the vertical stabs in
order to keep them in place while flying your F-27C Stryker PNP. There is rubber dou-
ble-sided tape on the front of each one, but over time, and despite a tight tension fit
when you slide the fins on the first time, they can lose their sticking power. At speeds
exceeding 80 mph, it is good, for your safety and the safety of your plane, to add CA to
ensure they will stay in place.

1. Slide the fins into the slots on the fuselage. The leading edge
of the fin should fit under the retainer that is already secured
in the fuselage.
2. Confirm that the fit is tight and both fins are secured properly.
Step 3
Your F-27C Stryker PNP requires, at minimum, a 3-Channel FM 72MHz radio system, and utilizes elevons that control pitch
and roll. The E-flite 25A brushless ESC that comes already installed in your F-27C Stryker PNP controls throttle.
1. Plug the ESC lead into the Throttle channel of your receiver.
2. Consult your radio instructions for the set-up for elevons/”V” tail control.
Make certain to carefully route the receiver antenna from the receiver through the bottom of the left wing. There is a
small cavity molded in the foam for the purpose of running the antenna through (just behind the carbon spar in the wing).
Make sure the antenna exits the bottom left wing tip so there is at least 14 inches (35.5 cm) of the antenna
hanging from the plane to ensure the range will be sufficient.
Note: Always make certain that you perform a proper range check prior to your first flight and after you have made any
change to your receiver and/or transmitter.
