RE: ar 7000 receiver flashing
If the LEDs in one or both of your AR7000 receivers (the main and satellite) start flashing it means that at some point the receiver supply voltage dropped below 3.x volts and the software's automatically kicked in with it's "quick reconnect" feature. If you're playing with it on the ground and you've noticed it, it probably just means that you've turned the plane off and on again without turning off the radio. If it's happening in the air you might want to take a look at your receiver battery, switch etc to see where it's dropping voltage.

"then went solid when i hit the bind button and all servos worked fine "
just a question about what you said here, are you pressing the bind button, after the system is bound to the RX? When you press the bind button it puts the radio in range test on my radio " I have the JRx9303".

Make sure you bind it correctly. Withe the transmitter off, insert the bind plug and power up the receiver. Then hold down the bind button and turn the transmitter on. Continue holding the bind button until the LED's stop flashing and the receiver links up. Now turn everything off, remove the bind plug and power back up. Everything should work perfectly. I've never had a problem with unbinding.
Another potential cause for the flashing LED's is low receiver battery voltage.

If you turn the reciever off, and don't turn the transmitter off an on, when you turn the reicever back on it will see its tranmitter on the last two channels it used, connect instantly, and flash the lights tell you that the power went out. Its not smart enough to know if you turned it off, disconnected the battery, or if you had a problem in flight.
When you cycle the transmitter it picks two new channels and when the receiver links up the lights will come on solid.
