Hi, I just bought a new AR 7000 and can't get it to bind. As soon as you put power into it the amber lights flicker and don't stay on or even blink. As I remove power they flicker again. I measured approx 5.2 volts on the pos and neg pins on the receiver. Anyone seen this? I will be calling my LHS in the morning to see if they will exchange it. This is not my first AR 7000. I have two others that work fine.
Keep it in the AIR.
Its possible the radio is too close to the rx when you are trying to bind to it.
Thats the only scenario I have seen where the radio doesnt bind.
Allow about 3 or 4 feet between the tx and rx when binding.

Quite possibly a bad Rx. Call Horizon. They will have you send it back and they will give you a new one.

are you using 2 wire or 3 wire battery, where are you putting bind plug, if 2 wire battery put bind plug in batt in and battery in open servo spot.
