Binding Procedure / Switching ON SAFE Select
IMPORTANT: The included AR636 receiver has been programmed for
operation specifi cally for this aircraft. Refer to the receiver manual for
correct setup if the receiver is replaced or is used in another aircraft.
CAUTION: When using a Futaba
module, you must reverse the throttle channel and rebind. Refer to your
Spektrum module manual for binding and failsafe instructions. Refer to your
Futaba transmitter manual for instructions on reversing the throttle channel.
1. Make sure the transmitter is powered off.
2. Move the transmitter controls to neutral (fl ight controls: rudder, elevators
and ailerons) or to low positions (throttle, throttle trim).*
3. Install a bind plug in the receiver bind port.
4. Place the aircraft level on its wheels, then connect the fl ight battery to the ESC. The
ESC will produce a series of sounds. Six fl at tones followed immediately by two
ascending tones confi rm that the LVC is set correctly for the ESC. The orange bind
LED on the receiver will begin to fl ash rapidly.
5. Remove the bind plug from the bind port.
6. Take three steps away from the aircraft /receiver and then power ON the
transmitter while holding the transmitter bind button or switch. Refer to
your transmitter's manual for specifi c binding instructions.
IMPORTANT: Do not to point the transmitter's antenna directly at the
receiver while binding.
IMPORTANT: Keep away from large metal objects while binding.
7. The receiver is bound to the transmitter when the orange bind light on the
receiver stays orange. The ESC will produce a series of sounds. Six fl at
tones followed immediately by two ascending tones. The tones indicate
the ESC is armed, provided the throttle stick and throttle trim are low
enough to trigger arming.
IMPORTANT: Once bound, the receiver will retain its bind settings for that
transmitter until it has been intentionally changed, even when power is
cycled ON and OFF. Repeat the binding process as necessary.
SAFE Select ON Indication
Every time the receiver is powered ON the surfaces will cycle back and forth
twice with a slight pause at neutral position to indicate that SAFE Select is
switched ON.
The throttle will not arm if the transmitter's throttle control is not put at the
lowest position. If problems are encountered, follow the binding instructions
and refer to the transmitter troubleshooting guide for other instructions. If
needed, contact the appropriate Horizon Product Support offi ce.
* Failsafe
If the receiver loses transmitter communication, the failsafe will activate. When activated, failsafe moves the throttle channel to its preset
failsafe position (low throttle) that was set during binding. All other channels move collectively and actively to place the aircraft in a slow descending left turn.
