Fuselage assembly
Transmitter
Bind plug
Binding is connecting a transmitter to a
receiver so the receiver recognizes the
transmitter GUID (Globally Unique Identifier)
code. Binding is necessary for proper
operation.
Your model is compatible to a Spektrum
™
or JR
®
DSM2
™
/DSMX
™
-equipped full range
transmitter. Spektrum radios with marine
technology use the following boat icon to
indicate marine use compatibility:
1. Locate the BIND plug. The BIND plug
will fit in the BIND port of the receiver as
shown.
2. Follow the procedure as described in
your radio manual for binding the receiver
and transmitter. Check the operation of
the rudder and speed control using the
radio system.
3. Remember to remove the BIND plug
from the receiver BEFORE turning off the
radio system. Once you have completed
binding the transmitter and receiver,
unplug the motor batteries and remove
them from the boat.
Once you have finished programming your
radio, you should re-bind the radio to ensure
the fail-safe positions for the servos are
correct.
Additional Information Regarding Your
Radio System
Before each run, power on the transmitter
and wait about five (5) seconds before moving
the receiver switch to the ON position. When
the receiver is switched on too quickly for the
transmitter to make frequency selection, the
transmitter and receiver may not connect.
When there is no connection, leave the
transmitter powered on, turn off the receiver
switch then turn it back on to power up the
receiver and connect the receiver to the
transmitter.
Activating the ESC
Turn on the transmitter then turn on the ESC.
The radio system is now searching for the
receiver it is bound to. Once located, the LED
on the receiver will illuminate and allow rudder
operation.
Engaging the Motor
Turn the ESC off then on again. The ESC will
beep until you pull the throttle trigger to full
throttle and return it to the neutral position.
Binding Procedure - PNP Version Only
(Applicable to all Spektrum DSM 2.4GHz marine compatible transmitters)
