CONNECTING YOUR RECEIVER TO AURA
Note: The Spektrum 4651T
receiver requires the use of a
different cable to connect to
Aura. The cable is included with
the receiver when it is purchased
directly from Flex Innovations.
You can also purchase the cable
itself at flexinnovations.com
(FPZA1039).
Spektrum Remote Receivers
If using a Spektrum Remote Receiver, connect it to Aura Mini
Port A using the cable provided with your receiver. You can
also choose to add a second remote receiver to Aura Mini
Port B for added redundancy.
Serial Receivers
If using a standard serial receiver, connect the provided male to male cable to
your receiver’s serial port. Connect the other end of the cable to Aura Port B
noting proper polarity.
Note: If you wish to use the AR6610T with an SRXL2 remote receiver, please
visit our wiki page for more details:

Binding Your Receiver
1. With the transmitter and aircraft powered OFF, place a
bind plug into Aura Port S8.
2. Power on the aircraft. Your remote receiver should flash
rapidly, indicating it is in bind mode.
3. Bind your transmitter to the remote receiver per your
transmitter manufacturer’s instructions. This is typically
done by pressing and holding the bind button on your
Spektrum transmitter while powering it on.
4. Verify the receiver is bound by looking at the LED on the
Remote Receiver. This is typically indicated by a solid
orange LED on Spektrum Remote Receivers.
5. Remove the bind plug from Aura Port S8.
Binding Your Receiver
Bind your receiver to your transmitter per your receiver and transmitter
manufacturer’s instructions.
SERVO CONNECTIONS
Note: When using the Flex DSMX Compatible, Diversity
Remote Receiver, only one can be used with the Aura 8;

page for more details.

Note: If you are using Futaba
S.Bus, be sure to use the
proper S.Bus port in your
receiver. DO NOT use the
S.Bus2 port, as it is not
supported for use with the
Aura 8. Refer to your
manufacturer's instructions
for proper S.Bus use.
