Receiver Installation
In gas and glow aircraft install the main receiver by wrapping it in protective foam and
fastening it in place using rubber bands or a hook and loop strap. In electric airplanes or
helicopters, you can use thick double-sided foam tape to fasten the main receiver in place.
Mount the remote receiver in a slightly different location, even just inches away from the
primary receiver. This gives tremendous improvements in path diversity. Essentially, each
receiver sees a different RF environment and this is key to maintaining a solid RF link. This
is especially the case in aircraft that have substantial conductive materials (e.g., larger gas
engines, carbon fiber, pipes, etc.), which can weaken the signal.
Using servo tape, mount the remote receiver keeping it at least 2 inches away from the
primary antenna. Ideally, you should position the antennas perpendicular to each other. In
airplanes, we recommend mounting the primary receiver in the center of the fuselage on
the servo tray and the remote receiver to the side of the fuselage or in the turtle deck.
Helicopters generally have enough room on the servo tray to achieve the necessary
separation. If needed fashion a mount using clear plastic to mount the external receiver.
Important: Y-Harnesses and Servo Extensions
Do not use amplified Y-harnesses and servo extensions with Spektrum equipment. Only use
standard non-amplified Y-harnesses and servo extensions. When converting existing models
to Spektrum, replace all amplified Y-harnesses and/or servo extensions with conventional
non-amplified versions.
Binding
You must bind the receiver to the transmitter before the receiver will operate. Binding teaches
the receiver the specific code of the transmitter, so it will only connect to that transmitter.
1. To bind an AR10000 to a DSM2 or DSMX transmitter, insert the bind plug in the BIND/
DATA port on the receiver.
Note: To bind an aircraft with an electronic speed controller that powers the receiver
through the throttle channel (ESC/BEC), insert the bind plug into the BIND/DATA port
in the receiver and the throttle lead into the throttle (THRO) port. Proceed to Step #2.
