Default RE: Spektrum dx7 lost bind today


Status: offline On the re-binding issue. I started out using 4.8V receiver pack's with the X9303. After some time, using an R7000 with this tx, I had an issue of losing bind in flight, but about 2 second's. I got it back, but not in time, as I have very little elevator throw, and too many things were happening at one time, for me to think about hitting the dual rate switch. Horizon replaced the receiver at no charge, never did find out what happened. I am sure if I was in straight and level flight, I wouldn't have noticed it.

From that experience, I changed all rx pack's over to 6V, never a problem again. Every time I do some work inside, unplugging servo's, etc., I always re-bind, same with the 921 rx.

Crank, it sounds more like your receiver went into failsafe, not a binding issue. I don't think they can rebind without the binding plug. I think the six volts though probably prevents your receiver battery from getting low enough to go into failsafe, just my opinion
