Binding is the process of programming the receiver of the control unit to recognize the GUID (Globally
Unique Identifi er) code of a single specifi c transmitter. You need to ‘bind’ your chosen Spektrum
TM DSM2 ™ /
DSMX ® technology equipped aircraft transmitter to the receiver for proper operation.
Any JR ® or Spektrum DSM2/DSMX transmitter can bind to the AS3X ™ DSM ® receiver. Due to the aerobatic
capabilities of the UMX ™ Hyper Taxi ™ , it is highly recommended that you use a transmitter with exponential
and dual rates. Please visit www.bindnfl y.com for a complete list of compatible transmitters.
NOTICE: When using a Futaba ® transmitter with a Spektrum DSM module, reversing the throttle channel
is required.
Transmitter and Receiver Binding

Binding Procedure
1. Refer to your transmitter’s unique instructions for binding to a receiver.
2. Make sure the fl ight battery is disconnected from the aircraft.
3. Power off the transmitter.
4. Connect the fl ight battery in the aircraft. The receiver LED will begin to fl ash rapidly, (typically after
5 seconds).
5. Make sure the transmitter controls are at neutral and the throttle and throttle trim are in the low
position.
6. Put your transmitter into bind mode. Refer to your transmitter’s manual for binding button or
switch instructions.
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 back of the manual.
For subsequent fl ights, power on the transmitter for 5 seconds before connecting the fl ight battery.
The Battery Charger (EFLUC1007) included with the
Hyper Taxi 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 fi re, 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 fi re.
• 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. Do not store
battery or model in a car or direct sunlight. If
stored in a hot car, the battery can be damaged or
even catch fi re.
• Always charge batteries away from fl ammable
materials.
• NEVER USE AN Ni-Cd OR Ni-MH CHARGER. Failure
to charge the battery with a compatible charger
may cause fi re 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 safe
