General Binding Tips and Failsafe
BNF
• The included receiver has been specifically programmed
for operation of this aircraft. Refer to the receiver manual
for correct setup if the receiver is replaced.
• Keep away from large metal objects while binding.
• Do not point the transmitter’s antenna directly at the
receiver while binding.
• The orange LED on the receiver will flash rapidly when
the receiver enters bind mode.
• Once bound, the receiver will retain its bind settings for
that transmitter until you re-bind.
• If the receiver loses transmitter communication, the
failsafe will activate. Failsafe moves the throttle channel
to low throttle. Pitch and roll channels move to actively
stabilize the aircraft in a descending turn.
• If problems occur, refer to the troubleshooting guide or if
needed, contact the appropriate Horizon Product Support
office.
