It’s necessary to bind the PowerSafe to the transmitter so that the 

PowerSafe will only recognize that specific transmitter and ignore signals 

from other sources. If the PowerSafe is not bound to the transmitter, the 

system will not operate. During binding the servo’s failsafe positions are 

stored.

How To Bind the PowerSafe

1.  With the system hooked up and all remote receivers attached as 

described previously, insert the bind plug in the DATA/BIND port in 

the PowerSafe.

2.  Turn on the soft switch. Note that the LED’s on all receivers should be 

flashing indicating that the receiver is ready to bind. 

3.  Establish the desired failsafe stick positions, normally low throttle 

and flight controls neutral. 

4.  Press and hold the bind button on the back of the transmitter while 

turning on the power switch. The bind button should flash and within 

a few seconds the system should connect. The LED’s on all receivers 

should go solid, indicating the system has connected. 

5. Remove the bind plug and store it in a convenient place. 
6.  After you’ve programmed your model, it’s important to rebind the  

system so the true low throttle and neutral control surface positions  

are programmed.
