Binding is the process of programming the receiver of
the control unit to recognize the GUID (Globally Unique
Identifier) code of a single specific transmitter. It will be
necessary for you to ‘bind’ your chosen Spektrum DSM2
technology equipped transmitter to the receiver for
proper operation.
The transmitter you select must be a DSM2 full range
(high power) Tx>. The following is a list of some of the
Spektrum DSM2 equipped transmitters and modules that
will bind to the receiver of the P-51D Mustang:
Spektrum DX5e JR X9303 2.4
Spektrum DX6i JR 12X 2.4
Spektrum DX7
Note: The Spektrum DX6 (SPM2460) is equipped
with DSM (not DSM2) technology and is not
compatible with the receiver of the P-51D Mustang.
The following steps outline the binding process:
• Confirm the process of entering the bind mode for
your chosen transmitter by reviewing the instruction
manual included with the transmitter.
• Make sure the flight battery is disconnected from
the receiver unit and the transmitter is turned off.
• Plug the bind plug into the Batt/Bind port on the
AR500 receiver.
DX5e or DX6i
1. To bind your Night Vapor to the DX5e or the DX6i,
plug the battery into the receiver of the airplane.
The LED on the receiver will flash red rapidly indi-
cating it is in bind mode.
2. Move the sticks and switches on the transmitter
to the desired failsafe positions (low throttle and
neutral control positions are recommended).
3. Pull and hold the Trainer Switch on the transmitter
while turning the transmitter on. Release the trainer
switch once the transmitter beeps.
4. The LED on the receiver will go solid red; the
system will connect after several seconds.
DX7, DX7se, X9303, or 12X
1. To bind your Night Vapor to the DX7, DX7se,
X9303, or 12X; plug the battery into the receiver of
the airplane. The LED on the receiver will flash red
indicating it is in bind mode.
2. Move the sticks and switches on the transmitter
to the desired failsafe positions (low throttle and
neutral control positions are recommended).
3. Press the bind button on the back of the
transmitter while turning the transmitter on. The
bind button on the back of the transmitter will
flash. Release the button after 2–3 seconds.
4. The LED on the receiver will go solid red; the
system will connect after several seconds.
• Plug the flight battery into the battery lead of the
ESC. The LED on the receiver unit will begin
flashing.
Note: NEVER plug the balance lead of the battery
directly into the receiver. This will cause damage to
the receiver and battery.
• After verifying the LED is flashing on the receiver,
follow the steps that allow your chosen transmitter
to enter bind mode.
• If you entered bind mode correctly, you will see a
solid LED approximately 5–10 seconds later on the
receiver. You should now be bound to the
transmitter, and have full control and function.
Prior to each flight, you should ensure that you power on
your transmitter and wait about five seconds before you
plug the flight battery into the receiver. Doing this allows
time for the transmitter to scan and secure two open
frequencies. If the flight battery is plugged in too quickly
and the link is missed, it may not allow the receiver to
connect to the transmitter. If this occurs, simply leave the
transmitter on and then disconnect and reconnect the
flight battery.

Note: Each time before you fly you should ALWAYS
turn the transmitter on before connecting the flight
battery to the receiver unit. After each flight, be sure
that you always disconnect the flight battery from the
receiver unit before powering the transmitter off.
