BINDING
The AR500 receiver must be bound to the transmitter
before it will operate. Binding is the process of teaching the
receiver the specific code of the transmitter so it will only
connect to that specific transmitter.
Note: RTF aircraft and Radio Systems are pre-bound at
the factory. Rebinding is necessary if any settings are
changed to ensure proper failsafe settings are achieved.
1. To bind an AR500 to a DSM2 transmitter, insert the
BATT/BIND port in the charge plug receptacle.
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 BATT/
BIND port in the receiver and the throttle lead into the
throttle port. Proceed to Step #2.
2. Power the receiver by plugging in a receiver battery
in any port on the receiver. Note that the LED on
the receiver should be flashing, indicating that the
receiver is in bind mode and ready to be bound to the
transmitter.

Note: When binding using a switch harness and
separate receiver pack, a three-wire switch harness
must be used such as SPM9530 (not shown). You may
need to purchase the Male/Female bind plug SPM6803
in addition to the switch harness.

3. Move the sticks and switches on the transmitter to
the desired AR500 failsafe positions (low throttle and
neutral control positions).
