All video clips I have seen until now, are describing earlier versions, not 5.
Hope you can point me to a relevant clip
Thanks

I took a quick look at the manual and there appears to be difference like set up point G and H are reversed in order. My ar7210bx point "G" is servo centering (so your leveling) ...and "H" is swash plate mix ( 90,120 etc) and in the V5 manual these steps are reversed so there may in fact be other subtle differences although each step in and of itself are the same in terms of what each is doing.
If I may suggest, download the ar7210BX (or ar7200bx) manual, as Dog and I and all the videos you are watching are relating to OUR present manual and machine, however as I stated above the steps are the same but the order may be off. eg; our "G" is YOUR "H" and our "H" is your "G" the titles and heading are very similar so you should be able to locate what is what... mark your manual with the corresponding letter from ours..so when watching a video like the one here or I believe Gregor Mcgrath from Amain has a good one as well. You can then understand and properly reference whats going on, or what can be expected in each of your steps even though the sequence shown in the videos would no longer be as linear and may require you to forward and reverse the video to get the your next step but will ultimately get your though it.
Once you've walked through it the first time you'll be golden and wont need the video reference as the learning and understanding of the point will have been had.
Well, once I get the other missing bits, I intend binding the new Rx and start all over againA bit confused myself, I though that when we finish the Skype call on Monday that servos & gyro were all working and you were waiting on 8 channel Rx, Swash Tool and blades to finish it off.
Holding the button down and turning on power puts you in the receiver setup menu not the setup menu. Im no expert by no means but I have setup many V5s. The correct way would be to turn on the power, let it initialize, then press and hold the button to enter the setup. That part is the same though V5
I received my new receiver - Spektrum AR8010T .In other words, receiver setup meaning a single line receiver, standard receiver, PPM ect. It defaults to standard receiver so you wouldn't have to worry about that at all if your waiting on a 8 channel rx I presume is a standard receiver.
But, I still need to bind the new receiver, yes?Normally you would not connect any servos till after steps A,B,C, and D. I have not used a AR8010T yet so I don't want to misguide you in any way. If your using all three supplied cables like in the picture, then the microbeast is defaulted to a standard receiver and you should not have to worry about that step.

Yes it will be bound before. You want to set the frequency for the servos before you plug them in. Just a good habit to get into. The system defaults to 50 which should be safe for most servos. Check step B down at the bottom where it says:
Servo connection:
After setting the correct update frequency plug in the swashplate servos, but do not install the servo horns yet as the servos could bind and get damaged on first power up!
