The battery charger (EFLC1008) included with your
aircraft has been designed to safely charge the
Li-Po battery.
CAUTION: All instructions and warnings must
be followed exactly. Mishandling of Li-Po
batteries can result in a fire, personal injury and/or
property damage.
• By handling, charging or using the included Li-Po
battery, you assume all risks associated with
lithium batteries.
• If at any time the battery begins to balloon or
swell, discontinue use immediately. If charging
or discharging, discontinue and disconnect.
Continuing to use, charge or discharge a battery
that is ballooning or swelling can result in fire.
• Always store the battery at room temperature in a
dry area for best results.
• Always transport or temporarily store the battery
in a temperature range of 40–120º F (5–49° C).
Do not store the battery or model in a car or direct
sunlight. If stored in a hot car, the battery can be
damaged or even catch fire.
• Always charge batteries away from flammable
materials.
• Always inspect the battery before charging.
• Always disconnect the battery after charging, and
let the charger cool between charges.
• Always constantly monitor the temperature of the
battery pack while charging.
• ONLY USE A CHARGER SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED
TO CHARGE LI-PO BATTERIES. Failure to charge
the battery with a compatible charger may cause
a fire resulting in personal injury and/or property
damage.
• Never discharge Li-Po cells to below 3V under
load.
• Never cover warning labels with hook and loop
strips.
• Never leave charging batteries unattended.
• Never charge batteries outside recommended
levels.
• Never charge damaged batteries.
• Never attempt to dismantle or alter the charger.
• Never allow minors to charge battery packs.
• Never charge batteries in extremely hot or cold
places (recommended between 40–120° F (5–49°
C)) or place in direct sunlight.
Flight Battery Charger Warnings
Binding is the process of programming the receiver to recognize the GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) code
of a single specific transmitter. You need to ‘bind’ your chosen Spektrum ™ DSM ® technology equipped
aircraft transmitter to the receiver for proper operation.
For a list of compatible DSM2/DSMX transmitters, please visit www.bindnfly.com.
Transmitter and Receiver Binding
 Binding Procedure Reference Table
CAUTION: When using a Futaba transmitter with a Spektrum DSM ® module, you must reverse
the throttle channel and rebind. Refer to your Spektrum module manual for binding and failsafe
instructions. Refer to your Futaba transmitter manual for instructions on reversing the throttle
channel.
1. Refer to your transmitter’s unique instructions for binding to a receiver.
2. Make sure the flight battery is disconnected from the aircraft.
3. Ensure the transmitter is powered OFF.
4. Connect the flight battery to the aircraft. The receiver LED will begin to
flash (typically after 5 seconds).
5. Make sure the transmitter controls are at neutral and the throttle is in the
low position.
6. Put your transmitter into bind mode. (If you are using the transmitter that
is supplied with the RTF version, push the left control stick vertically into
the case (until it clicks) while powering ON the transmitter).
7. After 5 to 10 seconds, the receiver status LED will become solid,
indicating that the receiver is bound to the transmitter. If the LED does
not turn solid, refer to the Troubleshooting Guide at the end of the
manual.
For subsequent flights, power ON the transmitter for 5 seconds before connecting the flight battery.
