CAUTION:
Connecting the battery to the ESC with
reversed polarity will cause damage to the ESC,
the battery or both. Damage caused by incorrectly
connecting the battery is not covered under warranty.
IMPORTANT:
The included receiver has been programmed
for operation specifi cally in this aircraft. The programming in
this receiver cannot be changed by the user.
An extension is installed in the receiver bind port so binding
may be done through the battery door in the bottom of
the aircraft without having to remove the wing assembly.
Simply insert the bind plug in the open end of the extension
marked “bind” to enter bind mode.
The included RTF transmitter is bound to the aircraft at the
factory. If you need to re-bind for any reason, follow the
binding procedure as shown.
You need to ‘bind’ your chosen Spektrum

technology equipped aircraft transmitter to the receiver for
proper operation. Please refer to the optional parts list in this
manual or visit www.bindnfl y.com for a list of compatible
transmitters.
Refer to your transmitter instructions for binding to a receiver.
The throttle will not arm if the transmitter’s throttle stick is not
put at the lowest position and the throttle trim centered or lower.
If you encounter problems, follow the binding instructions
and refer to the transmitter troubleshooting guide for other
instructions. If needed, contact the appropriate Horizon
Product Support offi ce.
IMPORTANT:
The channel output ports for channels 5, 6
and 8 have been disabled in the aircraft fl ight controller
and are labeled with an “X” on the fl ight controller case.
The channel 7 (AUX2) port has been set aside for the
optional fl aps installation.
Binding Procedure Reference Table
1. Make sure the transmitter is powered off.
2. Make sure the transmitter controls are neutral, the
throttle is at the lowest position*, the throttle trim is
centered and the aircraft is immobile.
3. Install a bind plug in the receiver bind port extension.
4. Connect the fl ight battery to the ESC. The ESC will produce
a long tone followed by a series of additional short tones.
5. The receiver LED will begin to fl ash rapidly.
6. Power on the transmitter while holding the transmitter bind
button or switch. Refer to your transmitter’s manual for
specifi c binding instructions.
7. When the receiver binds to the transmitter, the red bind
light on the receiver will turn solid and the ESC will
produce ascending tones. The tones indicate the ESC is
armed, provided the throttle stick and throttle trim are
low enough to trigger arming.
8. Remove the bind plug from the bind port. The receiver
should retain the binding instructions received from the
transmitter until another binding is done.
9. Safely store the bind plug (some owners attach the bind
plug to their transmitter using two-part loops and clips).
* The throttle will not arm if the transmitter’s throttle stick is not put at the lowest position.
