IMPORTANT: When using Y-harness or servo extensions it’s important to use

standard non-amplified Y-harnesses and servo extensions as this can/will cause

the servos to operate erratically or not function at all. Amplified Y-harnesses were

developed several years ago to boost the signal for some older PCM systems and

should not be used with Spektrum equipment. Note that when converting existing

models to Spektrum be certain that all amplfied Y-harnesses and or servo extensi-

ons are replaced with conventional non-amplified versions.

Binding

The AR7010 receiver must be bound to the transmitter before it will operate.

Binding is the process of teaching the receiver the specific code of the transmitter

so it will only connect to that specific transmitter.

1. To bind an AR7010 to a DSM2 or DSMX transmitter, insert the bind plug in the

BIND/DATA port on the receiver.

To bind an aircraft with an electronic speed controller that powers the receiver

through the throttle channel (ESC/BEC), insert the bind plug into the BIND/DATA

port in the receiver and the throttle lead into the throttle (THRO) port. Proceed to

Step #2.

2. Power the receiver. The LED on the receiver should be flashing, indicating that

the receiver is in bind mode and ready to be bound to the transmitter.

3. Move the sticks and switches on the transmitter to the desired failsafe positions

(low throttle and neutral control positions).
