EN 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. Any full range Spektrum DSM2/DSMX transmitter can bind to the DSM2/DSMX receiver. Please visit www.bindnfly.com for a complete list of compatible transmitters.

Refer to the ESC Arming instructions for correct connection of the battery to the ESC. A 4. Replace the canopy on the fuselage. CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po battery from the ESC when not flying to eliminate power supplied to the motor.
EN Control Direction Test Bind your aircraft and transmitter before doing these tests. Move the controls on the transmitter to make sure the aircraft control surfaces move correctly and in the proper direction. Always keep throttle at the low position during testing. Make sure the tail linkages move freely and that paint or decals are not adhered to them. Control Centering Before the first flights, or in the event of an accident, make sure the flight control surfaces are centered.

EN Flying Tips and Repairs Consult local laws and ordinances before choosing a location to fly your aircraft. We recommend flying your aircraft outside in no greater than moderate winds or inside a large gymnasium. Always avoid flying near houses, trees, wires and buildings. You should also be careful to avoid flying in areas where there are many people, such as busy parks, schoolyards or soccer fields. Range Check Your Radio System After final assembly, range check the radio system with the aircraft.
