The Binding function allows you to 'Bind' the transmitter and receiver pair. When new, it is necessary to pair the transmitter and 

receiver to prevent interference from transmitters operated by other users. This operation is referred to as 'Binding'. Once the 

Binding process is complete, the setting is remembered even when the transmitter and receiver are turned 'OFF'. Therefore, this 

procedure usually only needs to be done once.

Under some circumstances, the receiver may not operate after turning the transmitter and receiver 'ON'. If this occurs, 

perform the Binding process again.

Before beginning the Binding process, connect your servos and receiver battery pack to the receiver. For more information, 

see the 

Receiver Connections and Mounting

 section on page 12. The transmitter and the receiver should be turned 'OFF'.

3)  While holding down the Bind Button on the receiver, turn the receiver 

2 seconds, release the Bind Button. The Bind LED on the receiver 

Use the tip of a non-conductive instrument to press the Bind Button on the receiver. Do NOT use a sharp object!

Transmitter and Receiver Binding

1)  Turn the transmitter 'ON'. The Top Screen will be displayed. Press the ENTER key 

(Push-Button  Rotary  Dial)  to  open  the  Programming  Menu  list,  then  scroll  UP  or 

DOWN to highlight the SYSTEM menu. Press the ENTER key to open the SYSTEM 

menu, then scroll DOWN to highlight the BIND menu. Press the ENTER key to open 

the BIND menu.

When the Binding procedure is successful, the Bind LED on the receiver and LED 1 on the transmitter will illuminate solid 

In this case, turn both the transmitter and receiver 'OFF', then repeat the Binding procedure again.

4) 

5)  After the Bind LED on the receiver goes out, press the ENTER key a second time. The Bind LED on the receiver will illuminate 

solid blue and LED 2 on the transmitter will go out, indicating that the Binding procedure is complete and a Telemetry 

connection has been made.

Verify that [RF MODE]: FH4T is displayed. If it isn't, change the Modulation Type to FH4T. For more information, see the 

Changing the Modulation Type

 section on page 54.

2)  Scroll UP or DOWN to highlight the [ENTER] command.

IMPORTANT:

  This section details Binding the RX-461 4-Channel 2.4GHz FHSS-4T Telemetry receiver with Digital or Analog 

servos set to Normal mode. If you are Binding an FHSS-2 or FHSS-3 receiver to the transmitter, or if you prefer to change  

the Servo Operating Mode, see the 

Binding, Modulation Type and Servo Mode

 section on pages 54 and 55.

6)  Move the steering wheel and throttle trigger to verify that the servos are operating normally, then press and HOLD the 

Back/Cancel key to return to the Top Screen.
