[QUOTE="RandyDSok, post: 182232, member: 201"] Typically once a receiver is bound to a transmitter, it keeps that bind info and won't need to be rebound to it. You may need to contact Spectrum support directly if this continues since it may be a hardware failure. You do need to power on the transmitter first before powering the receiver ( just in case you were not already doing that ). However I assume you have been using them previously, so that was just a cover it just in case. Here is the user manual for the receiver just in case you need to refer to it for binding instructions as well as it has some troubleshooting info as well.. see [URL='https://www.spektrumrc.com/on/demandware.static/-/Sites-horizon-master/default/dwd7eff943/Manuals/SPMAR8360T-Manual-EN.pdf']AR8360T Manual[/URL] A common issue when binding is having the transmitter and receiver actually too close together... so keep them far enough apart to avoid that. Why, if too close together the signal is overdriven and gets garbled. When binding, you must hold the bind button down long enough to initiate the bind. In addition, if you used a bind plug instead of the button, it must be removed before powering off and back on. Updating firmware ... make sure you are using the latest programming software.
