Installing The Flight Battery; Transmitter And Receiver Binding - Horizon Hobby BNF Basic Blade 270 CFX Manuel D'utilisation

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 initiat-
ing at startup, turn on throttle hold and normal fl ight
mode before connecting the fl ight battery.
5. Attach hook material to the helicopter frame and loop
material to the battery.
6. Install the fl ight battery on the helicopter frame. Secure
the fl ight battery with a hook and loop strap. Connect
the battery cable to the ESC.
CAUTION: Always keep the power lead posi-
tioned AWAY from the elevator servo. Failure to
do so could cause the lead to get caught, resulting in a
crash causing property damage and injury.

Transmitter and Receiver Binding

Binding is the process of programming the receiver to
recognize the GUID (Globally Unique Identifi er) code of a
single specifi c transmitter. You need to 'bind' your chosen
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 fl ight battery to the ESC. The H menu LED should be fl ashing, indicating the AR7210BX 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 specifi c transmitter to enter Bind Mode. The system will connect within a few seconds.
Once connected, the H LED will turn off and the AR7210BX will start the initialization process.
6. When the initialization process is complete, the Status LED light will come ON solid BLUE.
7. Disconnect the fl ight battery and remove the bind plug from the AR7210BX. Store the bind plug in a convenient place.
WARNING: You must move the throttle to the
LOW/OFF position during binding. Failure to do
so may cause the rotor blades to spin and the helicopter
to lift during the AR7210BX initialization, which could
result in damage to property and injury.
CAUTION: Make sure the fl ight battery does
not come in contact with the motor. Failure to
do so will cause the motor, ESC and battery to overheat,
resulting in a crash causing property damage and injury.
7. Do not move the helicopter until the AR7210BX initial-
izes. The swashplate will move up and down, indicating
that the unit is ready. The AR7210BX will also emit a
solid BLUE Status LED when it is ready.
8. The helicopter motor will emit a series of tones,
indicating the ESC is armed.
CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po battery
from the aircraft receiver when not fl ying 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 fi re when batteries are charged.

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 instruc-
tions. If needed, contact the appropriate Horizon Product
