Transmitter and Receiver Binding
Binding is the process of programming the control unit to recognize the GUID
(Globally Unique Identifier) code of a single specific transmitter.
The aircraft should be bound to the transmitter at the factory, but if you need
to re-bind them, follow these steps. If your aircraft does not respond to the
transmitter when the batteries in the aircraft and transmitter are fully charged,
your aircraft and transmitter may need to be re-bound using the instructions in
the chart.
IMPORTANT:
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 office.
* Failsafe
If the receiver loses transmitter communication, the failsafe will activate.
When activated, failsafe moves the throttle channel to its preset failsafe posi-
tion (low throttle) that was set during binding. All other channels move for the
aircraft to slowly circle and descend until radio link is re-established.
Binding Procedure
1. Make sure the transmitter is
powered off.
2. Make sure the transmitter controls
are neutral, the throttle is in the
low position, and the aircraft is
immobile.*
3. Connect the flight battery to the
ESC. The Flight Controller LED will
begin to flash red and blue.
4. On the remote Spektrum receiver
that is connected to the flight
controller, press and release the
bind button. The receiver LED will
flash rapidly.
5. Press and hold the Bind button on
the top of the transmitter while
turning ON the power switch.
6. When the receiver binds to the
transmitter, the receiver LED will be
solid ON.
Once bound the receiver and transmitter
should retain their bind for future flights.
