Vapor BNF Instruction Manual

An exciting innovation from Horizon Hobby is changing the way people 

experience RC flight. New models offered in Ready-To-Fly form have 

been desired by experienced fliers, but they have been disappointed 

with the need to purchase the additional transmitters included in the 

RTF boxes. Bind-N-Fly

 solves this problem. This revolutionary new 

way to deliver Spektrum

 DSM2

 technology allows pilots to use a 

compatible transmitter with a growing number of electric aircraft from 

Horizon. The new era in RC flight makes its debut with ParkZone’s 

Vapor, a member of the unique Etomic

 series of ultra-micro aircraft.

Many modelers develop a unique comfort level with their own radios, 

and are not interested in purchasing another transmitter just to fly a 

specific plane. That’s why Bind-N-Fly helps take them to an entirely  

different level of RC flight. It also offers consumers everything they 

want and need in a plane, without the inclusion of unnecessary  

components. All they have to do is bind their DSM2 transmitters to 

the ultra-micro aircraft (including the transmitter utilized by E-flite’s 

remarkably popular Blade

®

 CX2) and the fun begins. In no time at all, 

modelers will be ready to take to their basements, living rooms or 

almost anywhere else to enjoy superb flight with the ultra-slow Vapor.

Aside from the transmitters, Bind-N-Fly products are packaged with 

everything else needed to get them in the air, including a flight battery 

and charger (as well as AA batteries for the charger). An integrated 

unit that houses the receiver, ESC and servos makes this ground-

breaking completion level possible. These stylish aircraft make for fun 

collectibles and, since their prices do not include transmitters, are 

more affordably priced than the ready-to-fly versions that  
are also available.

Opening up new possibilities for modelers everywhere by allowing 

owners of DSM2 transmitters to have their aircraft flying in no time,  

Bind-N-Fly is truly the future of RC flight.

All DSM2 transmitters are compatible with Bind-N-Fly aircraft,  

including:

    LP5DSM (E-flite Blade CX2 transmitter) 

Spektrum DX7 

Spektrum DX6i (Blade 400 transmitter) 

JRX9303 

JR 12X 

Spektrum DX5e

   Spektrum DSM2 module systems for JR

®

 and Futaba transmitters.

**DX6 not DSM2 compatible

**Not all transmitters available in all territories.

We at ParkZone are committed to giving you the most enjoyable  

flight experience possible. In order to have a safe and successful 

flight, we ask that you do not fly until you have read these instructions 

thoroughly.

including a 2.4GHz DSM2 fully proportional 3–channel receiver board 

with full control of throttle, rudder and elevator. Your Vapor also 

comes complete with the latest in lightweight electronic speed control 

technology, two linear servos, a 3.7V 70mAh Li-Po flight battery and a 

convenient charger.
