Bind Radio Controller to Radio Remote Receiver
If the Radio Remote Receiver (mounted on the board) needs to be bind to the Radio Controller again
to join the devices. Therefore, every controller can be used with every receiver by binding the two
devices. The binding also prevents receiving signals from the other controllers of the same model.
The binding was made for every car prior to the delivery, so it is not necessary to do the binding again.
If the binding was lost, follow the instructions below to match the devices again:
1. Make sure that the
Mode Switch
is set to
Autonomous Mode
2. Set the
Bind Jumper
to the
Bind Jumper
position and not to the
Bind Jumper Holder
position.
3. Set the
Mode Switch
to the
RC Mode
; the red LED of the receiver should blink now.
4. Take the Remote Controller and make sure charged batteries are in the controller.

Mode Switch
back to

position again.
