1. Turn the aircraft over so that the landing gear faces up.
2. Turn the latch (A) and remove the battery door (B).
3. Install the fl ight battery (C) all the way to the front of the battery compart-
ment. Connect the battery to the ESC power connector.
4. Make sure the fl ight battery is secured using two hook and loop
straps (D).
5. Install the battery door and turn the latch to secure the door closed.
CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po battery from the aircraft receiver
when not fl ying to avoid over-discharging the battery. Batteries discharged to a
voltage lower than the lowest approved voltage may become damaged,
resulting in loss of performance and potential fi re when batteries are charged.
CAUTION: Always keep hands away from the propeller. When armed,
the motor will turn the propeller in response to any throttle movement.
BIND PLUG
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
™ DSM2 ® /DSMX ® technology equipped aircraft transmitter to the receiver for proper operation.
Please visit www.bindnfl y.com for a complete list of compatible transmitters.
Transmitter and Receiver Binding
NOTICE: When using a Futaba transmitter with a Spektrum DSM® module, you must reverse the
throttle channel.

2. Make sure the transmitter is powered off.
3. Move the transmitter controls to neutral (fl ight controls: rudder, elevators and ailerons) or to low
positions (throttle, throttle trim).*
4. Install a bind plug in the receiver bind port or bind extension.
5. Connect the fl ight battery to the ESC. The ESC will produce a series of sounds. One long tone,
then three short tones confi rm that the LVC is set for the ESC.
6. The receiver LED will begin to fl ash rapidly.
7. Power on the transmitter while holding the transmitter bind button or switch. Refer to your
transmitter’s manual for binding button or switch instructions.
8. When the receiver binds to the transmitter, the light on the receiver will turn solid and the ESC
will produce a series of three ascending tones. The tones will indicate the ESC is armed, pro-
vided the throttle stick and throttle trim are low enough to trigger arming.
9. Remove the bind plug from the bind port or bind extension.
10. Safely store the bind plug (some owners attach the bind plug to their transmitter using two-part
loops and clips).
11. The receiver should retain the binding instructions received from the transmitter until another
binding is done.
Installing the Battery
* The throttle will not arm if the transmitter’s throttle control is not put at the lowest position. If you encounter problems, follow the binding instructions and refer
to the transmitter troubleshooting guide for other instructions. If needed, contact the appropriate Horizon Product Support offi ce.
