Installing the Flight Battery
1. Install the battery into the fuselage by first plugging the battery into the receiver.
2. Mount the battery in the airplane by placing it onto the bottom of the horizontal
fuselage on the right-hand side where the hook and loop strip is located. The plug
will face toward the rear of the airplane.
Note: The battery can be moved fore and aft to allow for the Center of Gravity
adjustment. Start with the battery in the middle of the hook and loop strip.
Adjust the battery forward or rearward to fine-tune the center of gravity.
Transmitter and Receiver Binding
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 following is a list of the Spektrum DSM2 equipped transmitters that we suggest
using to fly the 4-site and that will bind to the 4-Site receiver:
Spektrum DX6i Spektrum DX7/DX7se
JR X9303 2.4 JR 12X 2.4
Note: The Spektrum DX6 (SPM2460) is equipped with DSM (not DSM2) technology
and is not compatible with the receiver of the 4-Site BNF.
Note: All DSM2 equipped transmitters and modules will bind to the receiver of the
4-Site but we highly recommend using one of the transmitters listed above
due to the dual rate and expo functions of these transmitters.
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 flight battery into the receiver unit. After 5 seconds the LED on the receiver
unit will begin flashing. On the 4-Site, look on the left-hand side of the airplane to
see the red LED flashing.
• 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.
If you encounter any problems, repeat the binding process again, see the
troubleshooting guide or call the Horizon Support Team at 1-877-504-0233.
