Congratulations on your purchase of the ParkZone™

Super Decathlon. Your Super Decathlon has come

with everything to get you in the air – all in one box!

You will only need to attach the wing and landing

gear, as well as 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 have a safe and successful flight, we

ask that you do not fly until you have read these

instructions thoroughly.
Your Super Decathlon 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 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 Super Decathlon comes with 2 modes that

are selectable on the transmitter. Mode A limits the

travel of the control surfaces for your first several

flights. Mode B no longer limits the control so

you can perform more aerobatic maneuvers such

as loops. Your receiver also allows you to add or

remove jumper to better customize your flight, or

re-use this radio equipment in another aircraft if

you so choose.

Charging the Aircraft Battery

This 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. This charger continually monitors the battery’s

charge curve and automatically stops charging when the peak

charge is detected. The peak detection charger will help avoid

damaging Ni-Cd and Ni-MH cells.

Important: The 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.
