Transmitter Setup
IMPORTANT:
The AR636 receiver installed in the Bind-N-Fly aircraft has been
pre-programmed for operation in this aircraft. Refer to the receiver manual for
correct setup if the receiver is replaced or is used in another aircraft.
A DSM2/DSMX four-channel (or better) transmitter with dual rates is required
for fl ying this aircraft. The
Spektrum
™
DX4e, DX5e, DX6i, DX7s, DX8, DX9,
DX10t, DX18 and JR
®
X9503, 11X or 12X transmitters may be used.
The settings below are recommended starting settings.
For the best fl ight experience, we recommend fl ying your aircraft with the
Dual Rate switched to high rate. However, if the control response is too
great, low rate is still available.
Transmitters DX6i and Above
Servo travel ......................................................................................100%
Always leave servo travel at 100%. Use dual rates for a low rate setting. For
proper fl ight performance, do not set dual rates below 50% (only possible on
a computerized transmitter).
Tip:
DX6i transmitters can activate all three channel rates (aileron, elevator
and rudder) using a combined Dual Rates switch. Rates and expo can also
be adjusted if the recommended rates are not comfortable.
Tip
: DX7s and above transmitters can activate rates on one Dual Rates
switch like the DX6i transmitter. However, DX7s and above transmitters can
also activate rates and exponential on the same switch as the fl ight mode
(Channel 5).

Transmitters DX4e and DX5e
Before binding for Non-computerized Transmitters (DX4e, DX5e):
1.
Set all trims to NEUTRAL (0%).
2.
Move the transmitter Dual Rate switch to High Rate.
After binding:
1.
Check and adjust the servos so each arm’s neutral position is
perpendicular or as close to 90° as possible (loosen and adjust the
servo arm splines on the servo only when needed).
DO NOT
use
sub-trims to make fi ne adjustments, off-center sub-trim will affect
servo travel and AS3X operation.
2.
Adjust linkage lengths so the control surfaces center when the
servo arm is close to perpendicular.
3.
Set rates in the transmitter as recommended.
NOTICE:
If using a non-computer radio, reduce fl ap throw to half or the
aircraft may pitch up unexpectedly.
CAUTION:
For safe operation, always re-bind the airplane after setup
is complete to ensure the failsafe is updated with the latest setup.

Transmitter Setup Checklist
Before binding for Computerized Transmitters (DX6i, DX7/DX7se, DX7s,
DX8, DX9, DX10t, DX18):
1.
Choose a blank model memory with only default (zero) settings
(including trim and sub-trim).
2. Choose Wing/Aircraft Type for single aileron servo.
3.
Set all sub-trims to NEUTRAL (0%).
4. Set servo travel values to 100% for Aileron, Elevator, and Rudder.
5.
Set the Dual Rate to 100%, 70% for Aileron, Elevator, and Rudder.
After binding:
1.
Check and adjust the servos so each arm’s neutral position is
perpendicular or as close to 90° as possible (loosen and adjust the
servo arm splines on the servo only when needed).
DO NOT
use
sub-trims to make fi ne adjustments, off-center sub-trim will affect
servo travel and AS3X operation.
2.
Adjust linkage lengths so the control surfaces center when the
servo arm is close to perpendicular.
3.
Set rates in the transmitter as recommended.
CAUTION:
For safe operation, always re-bind the airplane after setup
is complete to ensure the failsafe is updated with the latest setup.
