Transmitter And Receiver Binding - Horizon Hobby Blade mQX Manual

Transmitter and Receiver Binding

Binding is the process of programming the receiver of the control unit to recognize the GUID (Globally Unique
Identifier) code of a specific transmitter. You need to 'bind' your chosen Spektrum
technology equipped aircraft transmitter to the receiver for proper operation. If you purchased an RTF model,
the transmitter is bound to the model at the factory.
To bind or re-bind your mQX to your chosen transmitter, please follow the directions below.
General Binding Procedure
1. Disconnect the flight battery from the Quad-Copter.
2. Select a clean model memory on your transmitter (computer radios only).
3. Select Acro or Airplane model type on your transmitter
4. Make sure all servo reversing is set to Normal on your transmitter
5. Center all trims and make sure sub-trims are disabled (zeroed) on your transmitter
6. Power off the transmitter and move all switches to the 0 position. Move the throttle to the low/off position.
7. Connect the flight battery in the Quad-Copter. The blue LED on the 4-in-1 control unit flashes after 5
seconds.
8. Put the transmitter into bind mode while powering on the transmitter.
9. Release the bind button/switch after 2–3 seconds. The Quad-Copter is bound when the blue LED on the
4-in-1 control unit is "on" solid.
10. Disconnect the flight battery and power the transmitter off.
NOTICE: Futaba transmitters (equipped with Spektrum modules) may require you to reverse the throttle channel.
