Replacing the Propeller
1. Loosen and remove the attached prop hub by
inserting a hex driver through the hole in prop hub.
2. Remove the propeller
3. Install new propeller while making certain the
numbers on front of the prop (9.5 x 7.5 on stock, 2
blade) are visable from the front.
4. Replace the prop hub and tighten it securely.

Step 7
Installing the Receiver
Carefully plug in the servo leads into the corresponding
channels of the receiver you have chosen. Confirm that
the servo leads/plugs are in the correct channel of the
receiver. Do this by:
1. Turning on the transmitter.
Note: If using a Futaba transmitter, it may be
necessary to reverse the throttle channel.
2. Installing a charged flight battery.
3. Plugging flight battery into ESC.
4. Checking all functions to ensure proper setup. Keep
all body parts away from the propeller. You can also
make any trim adjustments to the control surfaces
at this time. Once you are satisfied that the channels
are functioning correctly, you can turn off the radio
system. Install the receiver into the allotted space
within the fuselage. Make sure it is secure. Carefully
route the antenna (when applicable) so it exits the
fuselage just behind the canopy. It should then
simply fall along the fuselage and can be secured
through the vertical stab. When the antenna is routed
correctly, it should hang several inches (5”–7”) below
the fuselage (where applicable).
Range Checking your Radio System
After you have finished the final assembly, it is time to
range check the radio system within the T-28D Trojan
PNP.
Prior to each flying session
• Turn on the transmitter prior to plugging in the flight
battery. With the airplane on the ground and motor
running, you should walk away approximately 100
feet and still have full control of all functions while
following the specific range test feature of your
DSM2 transmitter. If this is not the case, do not
fly! Call Product Support at 1-877-504-0233.
• Always make sure that all controls are functioning per
the transmitter input that you are giving. This includes
ailerons, rudder, elevator and throttle.
• Always make sure you have fully charged the
transmitter batteries.
• Always remove the flight battery from the
airplane when you are done flying, or when you
are on the way to the flying field.
Step 8
Flying
Always choose a wide-open space for flying your
ParkZone T-28D Trojan PNP. It is ideal for you to fly at
an AMA sanctioned flying field. If you are not flying at
an AMA approved site, always avoid flying near houses,
trees, wires and buildings. You should also be careful
to avoid flying in areas where there are many people,
such as busy parks or schoolyards. Always follow local
ordinances. We recommend only flying your Trojan in light
winds.
Prior to each flight
• Always make sure your T-28D Trojan PNP is properly
trimmed.
• Always make sure the receiver, ESC, and battery are
properly secured.
• Always verify the propeller is on securely.
• Always ensure the servo reversing switches on the
transmitter are set correctly.
• Always verify the dual rates switch is set at where
you plan on flying. We recommend LOW rates for
your initial flying. The T-28D Trojan PNP is VERY
maneuverable on high rates and requires a lot of
experience to handle properly.
Center of Gravity Location
The center of gravity on your T-28D Trojan should be
located approximately 2-1/2” behind the leading edge
of the wing, when measured against the fuselage. This
CG location has been determined with the ParkZone
1800mAh 11.1V Li-Po battery installed.
