Transmitter and Receiver Binding

Binding is the process of programming the receiver to recognize the GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) code of a single
specific transmitter. You need to ‘bind’ your chosen Spektrum™ DSM2/DSMX technology equipped aircraft transmitter to
the receiver for proper operation.
Any full range Spektrum DSM2/DSMX transmitter can bind to the DSM2/DSMX receiver.

 Binding Procedure
1. Refer to your transmitter’s unique instructions for binding to a receiver (location of transmitter’s Bind control).
2. Make sure the flight battery is disconnected from the aircraft.
3. Power off your transmitter.
4. Place the aircraft on a level surface away from wind.
5. Connect the flight battery in the aircraft. The receiver LED will begin to flash rapidly (typically after 5 seconds).
6. Make sure the transmitter controls are neutral and the throttle and throttle trim are in low position.
7. Put your transmitter into bind mode. Refer to your transmitter’s manual for binding button or switch
instructions.
8. After 5 to 10 seconds, the receiver status LED will turn solid, indicating that the receiver is bound to the
transmitter. If the LED does not turn solid, refer to the Troubleshooting Guide at the back of the manual.
For subsequent flights, power ON the transmitter for 5 seconds before connecting the flight battery.

ESC/Receiver Arming, Battery Installation and Center of Gravity

CAUTION: Always keep hands away from the 1
propeller. When armed, the motor will turn the
propeller in response to any throttle movement.
Arming the ESC/receiver also occurs after binding as
previously described, but subsequent connection of a flight
battery requires the following steps.
AS3X
The AS3X® system will not activate until the throttle
stick or trim is increased for the first time. Once active,
the control surfaces may move rapidly and noisily on the 2
aircraft. This is normal. AS3X technology will remain active
until the battery is disconnected.
1. Remove the battery hatch from the fuselage.
2. Attach the battery to the hook and loop strip so the
battery is against the motor mount.

Center of Gravity (CG)

At the wing root, measure the CG location 32mm back
from the leading edge of the wing at the center section.
3. Lower the throttle and throttle trim to the lowest set-
tings on your transmitter. Power on your transmitter,
then wait 5 seconds.
4. Connect the battery to the ESC, noting proper polarity.
Keep the plane immobile and away from wind for 5
seconds to allow the AS3X system to initialize. A series
of tones and a continuous LED indicates a successful 32mm
connection.
Spektrum or E-flite 2S batteries with a PH plug require
an adapter lead. (SPMXCA327).

CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po battery

from the ESC when not flying to eliminate power

supplied to the motor. The ESC does not have an
arming switch and will respond to any transmitter input
when a signal is present.

CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po battery

from the ESC when not flying to avoid
over-discharging the battery. Batteries discharged to a
voltage lower than the lowest approved voltage may
become damaged, resulting in loss of performance and 4
potential fire when batteries are charged.

This test ensures that the AS3X® control system is functioning properly.

After flying, you may choose to adjust the linkage positions
for the desired control response.
CAUTION: When these are incorrectly connected

to the aircraft and personal injury.

This aircraft is equipped with Over Current Protection
(OCP). This feature protects the ESC from overheating.
OCP stops the motor when the transmitter throttle is set
too high and the propeller cannot turn. The OCP will only
activate when the throttle stick is positioned just above
1/2 throttle. After the ESC stops the motor, fully lower the
throttle to re-arm the ESC.
