Step 1
Transmitter
Your ParkZone Vapor airplane comes with a fully proportional 4+
channel transmitter that includes digital trims.
1. Insert the 4 AA batteries that are included with the package into
the transmitter, noting proper polarity.
2. Turn the switch on to ensure the batteries have been installed
correctly. When the batteries are installed correctly, the LED on
the transmitter should glow brightly. When the transmitter makes
a repeated “beep” sound, it is time to replace the transmitter
batteries.
Binding Process
The 2.4GHz DSM2 receiver in the Vapor uses a unique binding
operation to link your transmitter with your receiver. Please refer to
your transmitter’s manual for detailed binding instructions when
binding to another DSM2-equipped transmitter. Confirm that ATV
travels on your DSM2 transmitter are not exceeding 100% prior to
binding your transmitter to the Vapor.
Binding to the ParkZone DSM2 Transmitter
1. Make sure the flight battery is fully charged.
2. Confirm the flight battery is disconnected from the receiver/ESC
unit and the transmitter is turned off.
3. Plug the flight battery into the receiver/ESC unit. After 5
seconds the LED on the receiver/ESC unit will begin flashing.
4. After verifying the LED is flashing on the receiver/ESC unit,
follow the steps that allow your chosen transmitter to enter bind
mode.
5. If you entered bind mode correctly, you will see a solid LED
approximately 5 to10 seconds later on the receiver/ESC unit.
You should now be bound to the transmitter and have full control
and function.

Information
Prior to each flight, you should ensure that you power on your
transmitter and wait about 5 seconds before you plug in the flight
battery into the receiver. Doing this allows time for the transmitter to
scan and secure two open frequencies. If the flight battery is plugged
in too quickly and the link is missed, it may cause the receiver to
inadvertently enter bind mode. If this occurs simply leave the
transmitter on and then disconnect and reconnect receiver power
(flight battery).
Should you encounter any problems, repeat the binding process again
or call the Horizon Support Team at 1-877-504-0233.
