Your Spektrum DX4e comes prebound to the aircraft.

Remove the battery cover, install the four included batteries (noting proper 
polarity) and reinstall the battery cover.

Low Battery Alarm

When the battery voltage drops below 4.7 volts, an alarm sounds and the
voltage LEDs fl ash. The batteries must be replaced immediately. If this 
happens while fl ying, land your aircraft as soon and as safely as possible.

Installing the Transmitter Batteries

Trainer/Bind Button ((C) Mode 1 or (R) Mode 2)

The Trainer/Bind Button is used during binding or when connecting a trainer 
cord (SPM6805) to the trainer port (

T

). For complete binding instructions, refer 

to the binding section in this manual. 
When using the trainer function, connect the trainer cord into the trainer port 
in both the master (instructor) and the slave (student) transmitters. The master 
transmitter must be powered ON and bound to the receiver. The slave trans-
mitter must be powered OFF. Any time you press and hold the trainer button 
on the master, it will give control authority to the slave. Releasing the trainer 
button returns control to the master.

IMPORTANT:

 The slave transmitter must always have the same reverse set-

tings as the master.

Hi/Lo Rate Switch (D)

This switch supports high and low rate functions on aileron, elevator and 
rudder channels. In the upper, or “HI” position, servo travel is 100% on these 

channels. In the lower, or “LO”, position, servo travel decreases to 70% on 
these channels. This switch lets you quickly change control rates from high for 
aggressive maneuvers to low for smooth, precise maneuvers. When learning 
to fl y, use low rate.

Mode Switch (I)

This switch changes channel assignments to the control sticks. Always ensure 
the controls respond as desired before fl ying. A Mode 1 transmitter may be 
switched to Mode 3, while a Mode 2 transmitter may be switched to Mode 4.

Mix Switch (J)

This switch enables a mix for elevons on Delta wing aircraft. If needed, refer 
to the transmitter manual for more information.
