Binding

• If you purchased the ready-to-fl y (RTF) model, the transmitter is bound to the model at the factory. If for any reason the model needs to be re-bound, follow the 

directions for the Bind-N-Fly

®

 (BNF) version below.

To bind or re-bind your 350 QX to your chosen DSM2/DSMX transmitter, please follow the directions below along with the binding instructions 
included with your transmitter:

®

The Binding Process

1.  With the transmitter and quadcopter powered off, connect the battery

to the 350 QX.

2.  With the 350 QX on a level surface, turn on the power switch and allow 

the quadcopter to initialize.

3.  Wait until the blue LED on the quadcopter fl ashes rapidly, signaling the 

quadcopter is initialized and ready to bind.

4.  Ensure throttle is in the low position and throttle trim is at neutral.

5.  Hold the control sticks in the desired bind position (see illustrations)

and press/pull the bind button/switch, then power on the transmitter.

6.  Refer to the Flying LED Codes table to ensure the aircraft is bound 

correctly.

IMPORTANT:

 Do not attempt to bind with more than one bind code. 

Binding with more than one bind code will only allow the aircraft to 
bind normally.
Unless binding with a bind code, the elevator and aileron inputs (includ-
ing trim) must be neutral during binding. If you are attempting a normal 
bind with any input other than neutral, the aircraft will emit a constant, 
rapid beeping sound.

Transmitter Bind Codes

Entering Bind Mode

If your 350 QX emits a constant beeping sound after binding

(

Smart

 or 

Agility Mode

 only):

1. Ensure all trims are neutral.
2. Slowly move the elevator stick back and forth (close to center) and 

listen for the beeping to stop or hesitate. Take note of the direction 
you are moving the stick when the change of tone happens.

3. If the tone never changes with elevator movement, slowly move the 

aileron stick back and forth (close to center) and listen for the beep-
ing to stop or hesitate. Take note of the direction you are moving the 
stick when the change of tone happens.

4. Input trim in the direction that caused the change in tone until the 

beeping stops.

In the event you cannot fi nd an input that stops the tones:
1. Apply 1 click of elevator trim in either direction and then slowly 

move the aileron stick close to center. 

2. Continue to add 1 click at a time of elevator trim, up to 5 trim steps 

off center up or down, and move the aileron stick until you fi nd the 
point that makes the tones stop.

3. Add aileron trim in the direction you moved the stick to make the 

tones stop.
