3. With the steering wheel, and throttle trigger in the desired preset

failsafe positions (generally full brake and neutral steering), initiate the
bind process with your Spektrum transmitter. This stores the failsafe
positions. Continue to hold the failsafe positions until the binding
process is complete. Please see the next section for more information
about failsafe.

4. The LED on the receiver should now be solid, indicating a successful

bind has taken place.

5. Once the bind process is complete and before power is cycled on the

receiver, remove the bind plug and store it in a convenient place. Failure to
remove the bind plug will result in the receiver going back into bind mode.

The only time it is necessary to do a rebind is if different failsafe positions
are desired e.g., servo travel has been reversed after the initial bind, or if
the receiver is to be bound to a different model memory.

Failsafe

Failsafe positions are set during binding. In the unlikely event that the
radio link is lost during use, the receiver will drive the servos to their
preprogrammed failsafe positions (normally full brakes and straight
steering). If the receiver is turned on prior to turning on the transmitter, the
receiver will enter failsafe mode, driving the servos to their preset failsafe
positions. When the transmitter is turned on, normal control is resumed.

Problem

Possible Cause

Solution

The system
will not
connect

Your transmitter and re-
ceiver are too close together

Move transmitter 8 to 12
feet from receiver

You are around metal
objects

Move to an area with less
metal

The model selected is not
the model bound to

Check model selected
and ensure you are bound
to that model

Your transmitter was
accidentally put into bind
mode and is no longer
