Default DX7 Dim Light after Bind

After binding radio and reciever I unplug the binding jumper and then the light goes dim and no control over aircraft. Any ideas on what may be going on? Thanks in advance. Don

There are known issues with the firmware on the 6100s. And -- at least one of mine won't bind with symptons similar to this you descibe, and I need to sent it back to Horizon Hobby for replacement. My guess is you have a bad receiver...

Yep did that. Called and found out that I had plugged all servos in upside down (including speed controller). This caused dim light and now everything works as advertized. Thanks everyone!
