Battery Installation
A
“Binding” is the process of programming the receiver 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).
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.
Binding Procedure Reference Table
1.
Read the transmitter instructions for binding to a receiver (loca-
tion of transmitter’s Bind control).
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.
5. Connect the fl ight battery to the voltage regulator.
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.
9.
Remove the bind plug from the bind port.
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.
* 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.
Transmitter and Receiver Binding
Bind Plug Installation
1. Push the button (A) into the fuselage to release the latch.
2. Lift the back of the hatch and pull up to remove the hatch.
3. Apply hook and loop tape on the back of the battery (B) as shown.
4. Install the fully charged battery (C) in the battery compartment with ap-
proximately 1 inch (25mm) of the battery projecting from the compartment.
See the Adjusting the Center of Gravity instructions for more information.
5. Reinstall the hatch. Push the rear of the hatch to ensure the latch is fully
engaged.
Battery Selection
• We recommend the E-fl ite 1300mAh 7.4V 2S Li-Po battery
(EFLB13002S20).
• If using another battery, the battery must be at least a 1300mAh battery.
• Your battery should be approximately the same capacity, dimensions and
weight as the E-fl ite Li-Po battery to fi t in the fuselage without changing
the center of gravity a large amount.
Alternative battery option (4- or 5-cell Ni-Cd or Ni-MH battery with
switch harness)
1. Install the switch in an easily accessible location in the fuselage.
2. Secure the battery in the fuselage with hook and loop tape.
3. Insert the power output connector from the switch harness into the battery
port or any open channel on your receiver
NOTICE: Do not plug a 2S Li-Po or Li-Fe battery directly into your receiver or
damage will result. The servos in this model are rated at 6 volts maximum.
