It is important that you only charge the included 3.7V 70mAh
Li-Po battery (PKZ3001) with the included 1S 3.7V DC Li-Po Charger
(PKZ3240). Attempting to charge the battery using another Li-Po charger
or non-Li-Po compatible charger could result in serious damage. Please
familiarize yourself thoroughly with the Battery Warnings and Guidelines
section before continuing.
To charge your ParkZone 3.7V 70mAh battery:
1. Install four of the included AA batteries in the charger base, noting
proper polarity.
2. Slide the battery into the charge slot on the charger.
3. Gently press the battery into the charging jack in the bottom of the
slot. The LED light on the base will turn solid red.
4. A nearly depleted battery will charge in approximately 20 minutes.
5. As the battery nears fully charged, the LED will begin to blink.
When fully charged, the LED will blink once every 20 seconds.
6. You can expect to be able to charge the ight battery about 15–20
times before it will become necessary to replace the four AA
batteries. Replacing with alkaline batteries will provide more
charge cycles.
Note: The Li-Po battery included with your Ember 2 will arrive
partially charged. For this reason the initial charge may only take
10–15 minutes.
Step 1 – Charging the Aircraft Battery

Installing the Transmitter Batteries
Your ParkZone Ember 2 aircraft comes with a fully proportional 4+
channel radio system that includes digital trims.
1. Insert the 4 AA batteries that are included with the package into
the transmitter.
2. Turn the switch on to ensure the batteries have been installed
correctly. When the batteries are installed correctly, the LED on the
transmitter should glow brightly. When the transmitter makes a
repeated “beep” sound, it is time to replace the transmitter
batteries.
Installing the Landing Gear
Attach the main landing gear by sliding the gear into the lower slot
located on the front wing mount.
Step 2 – Functional Tests
5
Installing the Flight Battery
Once the Li-Po battery has been fully charged, it’s ready to be installed in
the Ember 2.
Install the battery in the Ember 2 by pressing it to the battery tray with
the label facing downward and the connector oriented toward the back
of the airplane.
Note: Be sure to press the battery against the battery tray so the
battery is secured by the hook and loop material.

Transmitter Control Identification
Note: Each time before you fly you should ALWAYS turn the
transmitter on before connecting the flight battery to the ESC unit.

Flight Control Test
Warning: Keep everything clear of the propeller before starting the
control test in the event that you accidentally turn on the motor.
1. Be certain that the throttle stick is down in the “Off” position.
2. Turn the transmitter on rst and lower the throttle stick completely.
Then, plug the battery into the battery lead of the ESC unit.
Note: The connectors on the battery and battery lead are keyed
to prevent reverse polarity connection. However, if you force them
together in the wrong orientation and with the wrong polarity it is still
possible to damage the battery and/or ESC unit.
3. Move the aileron stick left and right to check yaw control. The
rudder should move to the left when the stick is pushed left and
the rudder should move to the right when the stick is pushed right
when viewing the Ember 2 from the back.
Note: For most aircraft, the aileron stick is used for primary turning
control. For the Ember 2, the rudder provides turning control and is
therefore commanded by the aileron stick.
4. Move the elevator stick on the transmitter forward and aft to
check elevator pitch control. When the stick is pushed forward,
the elevator should move down when viewing the Ember 2 from
the back.
Shown with aileron stick pushed to the left. Shown with aileron stick pushed to the right.

5. With the elevator stick pulled back, the elevator should move
upward.
If at any time during the test the controls respond in the opposite
direction, it may be necessary to reverse/change the direction of
operation of the ight controls. Please see the section labeled
Reversing Flight Controls located in the back of this manual.
Note: It is very important to make sure that the control surfaces
(rudder and elevator) are at 0 degrees, or neutral, when the surface
control sticks are centered.
