Note: You must rebind when:
•Differentfailsafepositionsaredesired,e.g.when
throttle or steering reversing has been changed.
•Changingreceivertypes,e.g.changingfromaDSM
receiver to a DSM2 or Marine receiver.
•Thereceiveristobeboundtoadifferenttransmitter.
Note:SomeSpektrumreceivers,liketheSR3000,usea
