Cleaning
Performance can be hindered if dirt gets in any of the moving
suspensionparts.Usecompressedair,asoftpaintbrush,ora
toothbrush to remove dust or dirt. Avoid using solvents or chemicals,
as they can actually wash dirt into the bearings or moving parts,
as well as cause damage to the electronics.
Cleaning the Air Filter

will block air flow to the carburetor.
To clean the air filter element:
1. Useasoftbrushtoremoveanydirtanddustfromthe
area around the carburetor as well from the air filter housing.
2. Remove the air filter from the carburetor, making sure no dust
or dirt enters the carburetor.
3. Disassemble the air filter.
4. Cleantheentireairfilterassemblyusingamixtureofwarm
water and dish detergent.
5. When the foam filter element is clean, squeeze the element
severaltimesinaclothtoremoveanyexcesswater.Allow
the foam filter element to completely dry.
6. Put about a tablespoon air filter oil in a small re-sealable plastic bag.
7. Place the foam element in the bag with the oil and press the
element into the oil. Continue to do so until the foam is completely
covered in oil. If the filter is not completely saturated, add more oil.
8. Remove the foam element from the plastic bag. Squeeze the
element several times in a paper towel or clean rag to remove
excessoilandre-assemble.
9. Install the air filter assembly on the carburetor. Make sure the
nylon tie on the carburetor is tight so the air filter cannot come off.
BINDING
Binding is the process of programming the receiver to recognize
theGUID(GloballyUniqueIdentier)codeofasinglespecic
transmitter. The DX2E and SR200 are bound at the factory.
You must rebind when:
• Differentfailsafepositionsaredesirede.g.,whenthrottle
or steering reversing has been changed.
• Changingreceivertypese.g.,changingfromaDSM

to a DSM2

receiver.
• Bindingthereceivertoadifferenttransmitter.
Some Spektrum
™
receivers, like the SR3001, use a bind button rather
than a bind plug. The binding process is the same with this receiver,
however, instead of inserting the plug before powering up the receiver,
press and hold the bind button while powering up the receiver to enter
bind mode.
If you need to rebind, follow the instructions below.
1. With the receiver off, insert the bind plug into the BIND port
on the receiver.
2. When a battery is connected to the ESC and the ESC is connected
to the throttle port on the receiver, power on the ESC switch. An
LED on the receiver will flash rapidly, showing the receiver is in
Bind mode.
3. Do not touch the throttle or steering controls, as this sets the
failsafe settings. The throttle and throttle trim should always be
at the lowest setting during bind mode. Press and hold the bind
button and power on the transmitter. The green LED on the front
of the transmitter will flash within three seconds, indicating the
transmitter is in bind mode.
4. Release the bind button when the green LED flashes.

5. The receiver's LED will turn solid when the transmitter
and receiver are bound.
6. Remove the bind plug and store it in a convenient place.
Failsafe
In the unlikely event that the radio link is lost during use, the receiver
will drive the servos to their preprogrammed failsafe positions
(normally neutral/idle throttle position and straight steering). If the
receiver is turned on prior to turning on the transmitter, the receiver
will enter failsafe mode. When the transmitter is turned on, normal
control is resumed. Failsafe servo positions are set during binding.
