Binding is the process of programming the receiver to recognize the GUID
(Globally Unique Identifi er) code of a single specifi c transmitter. You need to
‘bind’ your chosen Spektrum
™
DSM2
®
/DSMX
®
technology equipped aircraft
transmitter to the receiver for proper operation.
IMPORTANT:
Before binding a transmitter, read the Transmitter Setup section
of this manual to ensure that your transmitter is properly programmed for this
aircraft.

Binding Procedure
I
MPORTANT:
The included AR636 receiver has been programmed for
operation specifi cally for this aircraft. Refer to the receiver manual for cor-
rect setup if the receiver is replaced or is used in another aircraft.
Read the transmitter instructions for binding to a receiver (location of
transmitter’s Bind control).
Please visit www.bindnfl y.com for a com-
plete list of compatible transmitters.
CAUTION:
When using a Futaba
®
transmitter with a Spektrum DSM
module, you must reverse the throttle channel and rebind. Refer to your
Spektrum module manual for binding and failsafe instructions. Refer to
your Futaba transmitter manual for instructions on reversing the throttle
channel.
1.
Make sure the transmitter is powered off.
2.
Move the transmitter controls to neutral (fl ight controls: rudder,
elevators and ailerons) or to low positions (throttle, throttle trim).**
3.
Install a bind plug in the receiver bind port.
4. Connect the fl ight battery to the ESC. The ESC will produce a series
of sounds. One long tone, then 3 short tones confi rm that the LVC is
set correctly for the ESC. The orange bind LED on the receiver will
begin to fl ash rapidly.
5.
Power on the transmitter while holding the transmitter bind button
or switch. Refer to your transmitter’s manual for binding.
6.
When the receiver binds to the transmitter, the orange bind light on
the receiver will turn solid and the ESC will produce a series of three
ascending tones. The tones indicate the ESC is armed, provided the
throttle stick and throttle trim are low enough to trigger arming.
7.
Remove the bind plug from the bind port.
8.
Safely store the bind plug (some owners attach the bind plug to their
transmitter using two-part loops and clips).
9.
The receiver should retain the binding instructions received from the
transmitter until another binding is done.
* The throttle will not arm if the transmitter’s throttle control is not put at
the lowest position. If you encounter problems, follow the binding instruc-
tions and refer to the transmitter troubleshooting guide for other instruc-
tions. If needed, contact the appropriate Horizon Product Support offi ce.
**Failsafe
If the receiver loses transmitter communication, the failsafe will activate.
When activated, failsafe moves the throttle channel to its preset failsafe
position (low throttle) that was set during binding. All other channels hold
their last position.
