Receiver/ESC

Your ParkZone P-51D Mustang comes with a specially

designed receiver/ESC unit that allows you great

flexibility. There are three jumpers that are located

in the receiver that can be changed (added/removed)

that allow you make changes (if you so choose) from

the stock configuration that your P-51D Mustang

comes in. You can also reuse the included radio

system in another ParkZone or other similar electric

aircraft if you so choose due to the adaptability of the
receiver/ESC included.

Jumper 1- Mix of Elevator and Aileron:

You can add the jumper to utilize software that will

allow a slight mix of elevator and ailerons. In this

mode, when aileron input is given, a slight amount of

up elevator is added. By doing this, the nose of the

airplane will be more likely to “stay up” when aileron

input is given. This can be of great help to pilots that

are transitioning from 2 to 3 channel aircraft and are

not used to pitch control.

Jumper 2- V-Tail/Standard Tail:

Your P-51D Mustang comes with the plane set for

conventional aileron control. If you remove the included

jumper, you can change the radio system to function

as “V” tail (elevon) control in the event that you want

to transfer the equipment to such airplanes as the
ParkZone F-27 Stryker or Slo-V.

Jumper 3- Auto Cut-off:

Auto Cut-off: Your P-51D Mustang comes with the ability

to change the cut-off voltage of the radio system.

When the jumper is present the auto-cut is set at about

5.7 volts, which works with 6-9 Ni-MH cells. When the

jumper is absent, the autocut is set at about 8.8 volts,

which will function correctly with a 3s Li-Po Battery.

Note

: Your ParkZone P-51D Mustang is designed

to support a 3s Li-Po battery. We recommend the

ThunderPower 2100 mAh pack. (THP21003S) You will

need to supply your own connectors.

The battery should be able to safely deliver 13 amps of

current.

pilots that are transitioning to using a 3-channel radio system.
