Binding Procedure Reference Table

1.

  Make sure the transmitter is powered off.

2.

  Make sure the transmitter controls are 

neutral, the throttle and throttle trim 

are in the low position, and the aircraft 

is immobile.

3. 

Install a bind plug in the receiver bind 

port.

4. 

Connect the flight battery in the 

aircraft. The receiver LED will begin to 

flash.

5. 

Power on the transmitter while holding 

the transmitter bind button.

6. 

When the receiver binds to the transmit-

ter, the light on the receiver will turn solid 

and produce a series of three ascending 

tones. The tones will indicate the ESC 

is armed, provided the throttle stick and 

throttle trim are low enough to trigger 

arming.

7. 

Release the Bind button and remove 

the bind plug from the receiver.

8. 

Confirm that the aircraft is bound by 

moving controls.

Transmitter and 

Receiver Binding

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

 DSM2/DSMX 

technology equipped aircraft transmitter to the receiver 

for proper operation. 

Please visit www.bindnfly.com for a complete list of 

compatible transmitters.

BIND PLUG

To operate the SAFE™ system in this aircraft, set up 
your optional DSM2

®

/DSMX

®

 transmitter using the chart 

below.
 
A transmitter with a 2-position channel 5 switch will only 
allow the use of position 0 or position 2 flight modes.
If possible, assign channel 5 in your transmitter to a 3- 
position switch to operate all 3 flight modes.

The receiver should retain the binding instructions received from the 

transmitter until another binding is done.

Your Delta Ray should already be bound to your 
included DX4E TX.  IF you ever need to rebind, 
follow the step listed below in the Binding 
Procedure Reference Table.
