Transmitter And Receiver Binding; Throttle Hold; Installing The Flight Battery - BNF BLADE 300 X Instruction Manual

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.
Binding Procedure
1. Program your transmitter using the Transmitter Setup found in this manual.
2. Insert the bind plug in the BND/DAT port on the receiver.
3. Connect the flight battery to the ESC. The H menu LED should be flashing, indicating the AR7200BX is in bind mode.
4. Move the throttle stick to the desired failsafe position (low throttle position in normal mode).
5. Follow the procedures of your specific transmitter to enter Bind Mode. The system will connect within a few seconds. Once connected, the H LED will
turn off and the AR7200BX will start the initialization process.
6. When the initialization process is complete, the Status LED light will come ON solid BLUE.
7. Disconnect the flight battery and remove the bind plug from the AR7200BX. Store the bind plug in a convenient place.
NOTICE: Remove the bind plug to prevent the system from entering bind mode the next time the power is turned on.
If you encounter problems, obey binding instructions and refer to transmitter troubleshooting guide for other instructions. If needed, contact the appropriate
Horizon Product Support office.

Throttle Hold

Throttle hold only turns off the motor on an electric helicopter. You must
maintain pitch and direction control.
The blades will spin if throttle hold is OFF. For safety, turn throttle hold ON any
time you need to touch the helicopter or check the direction controls.

Installing the Flight Battery

1. Lower the throttle.
2. Power on the transmitter.
3. Center the throttle trim.
4. To allow the ESC to arm and to keep rotors from initiating at startup, turn
on throttle hold and normal flight mode before connecting the flight
battery. Please refer to your transmitter manual for more information on
programming throttle hold and normal flight mode.
5. Attach hook material to the helicopter frame and loop material to the
battery.
6. Install the flight battery on the helicopter frame. Secure the flight battery
with a hook and loop strap. Connect the battery cable to the ESC.
CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po battery from the aircraft receiver when not flying to avoid over-discharging the battery. Batteries discharged to a
voltage lower than the lowest approved voltage may become damaged, resulting in loss of performance and potential fire when batteries are charged.
EN
Throttle hold is also used to turn off the motor if the helicopter is out of control,
in danger of crashing, or both.
Please refer to your transmitter manual for more information on programming
throttle hold.
CAUTION: Always keep the power lead positioned AWAY from the eleva-
tor servo. Failure to do so could cause the lead to get caught and will
result in crash causing property damage and injury.
CAUTION: Make sure the flight battery does not come in contact with
the motor. Failure to do so will cause the motor, ESC and battery to
overheat, resulting in crash, causing property damage and injury.
7. Do not move the helicopter until the AR7200BX initializes. The swashplate
will move up and down indicating that the unit is ready. The AR7200BX
will also emit a solid BLUE Status LED when it is ready
8. The helicopter motor will emit 2 tones, indicating the ESC is armed.
