Transmitter and Receiver Binding
1. Lower the throttle stick to the lowest position.
2. Power ON the transmitter.
3. Center all trims. For the included Spektrum DXe
transmitter (RTF only), the trims are centered when
you hear a higher pitched beep while pressing the trim
button. Move the trim in both directions until you hear
the high-pitched beep.
4. Attach the hook material to the helicopter frame and
the loop material to the fl ight battery.
5. Install the fl ight battery on the helicopter frame.
Secure the fl ight battery with the hook and loop strap.
NOTICE: If the fl ight battery strap is pulled too tight, it
may result in a vibration or the tail rotor may drift to
the right during fl ight. If you experience either of these
issues, loosen the strap slightly and fl y again.
6. Connect the battery connector to the ESC, noting
correct polarity. After connecting, the ESC will emit two
tones, indicating the model is initializing.
CAUTION: Connecting the battery to the ESC
with reversed polarity will cause damage to the
ESC, the battery or both. Damage caused by incorrectly
connecting the battery is not covered under warranty.
7. Place the helicopter on a fl at, near-level surface
and leave it still until the ESC emits six rapid tones
and the receiver LED glows solid orange, indicating
initialization is complete.
If you experience issues during initialization, refer to the
Troubleshooting Guide at the back of the manual.
CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po
battery from the aircraft 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.

5. Connect the fl ight battery to the ESC. The receiver LED fl ashes, indicating it is in bind mode.
6. Press and hold the Bind Switch while powering on the transmitter.
7. The transmitter will beep and the LED will blink. Release the Bind Switch.
8. The helicopter is bound when the LED on the receiver control unit is solid and the transmitter emits 3 rapid,
high-pitch tones. If the transmitter emits 2 low-pitch tones, the binding procedure was not successful and should
be attempted again.
9. Disconnect the fl ight battery and power the transmitter off.
If you encounter problems, obey binding instructions and refer to the troubleshooting guide for other instructions.
