Tim Mackey Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Cant say i have ever had any trouble with any of my 8 x AR7000s during binding. Are you sure they are not "quick connect" versions - have you actually tried it after following the binding procedure...it may bind super quick and be ready to go ? When you say "not stay flashing" they should stop flashing after a successful bind anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Jones Posted March 24, 2008 Author Share Posted March 24, 2008 Hi Timboas i either plug the battery in direct or do the binding process it just does one quick flash,and is not bound to my txthink i will give john a call at Horizon in the morning just cant get it to work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Mackey Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Oh good glad you found the solution. Several peole have tried ( and likewise failed ) through trying to bind with a 2 wire switch harness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephane Pac Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Hi Mark. Any info as to how you sorted out your problem. I'm having the same problem where the LEDs flash once only when the receiver is powered up. After that, nothing happens. I tried with the binding plug and without it also. In both cases, it's the same situation. I am using the switch harness (3-wire)and the JR battery pack supplied in the DX7 kit. I also tried using a UBEC directly connected to the receiver, but no luck there. Any help, please... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott cuppello Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Flashes once and goes off? Are you sure you have the servo/power lead's the right way round in the RX? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Cole Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 On the subject of flashing lights I have installed the Spectrum module in my JR9x11 when I turn on the TX then RX the RX lights are solid, now if I turn off the RX and turn it on again with out turning of the TX the light flash but still seem to have full control I have not made a flight under these conditions, So am I right to assume that if you turn off your RX for any reason you should also turn off your TX with this system.

Tim Mackey Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 This is simply the quick connect feature of the receiver - they flash to indicate that power supply to the receiver(s) has been interrupted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
