7SPEKTRUM DX3R PROGRAMMING GUIDE
Note: The switches listed above are the factory
default functions assigned to each switch.
Each switch can be programmed to one of ten
functions including:
• Inhibit

sTeerIng TensIon adjusTMenT
Steering tension is adjusted via the recessed
screw located below the steering wheel (see
Steering Tension Adjustment on the previous page).
Using a small Phillips screwdriver, turning the
screw clockwise increases steering tension while
turning the screw counterclockwise reduces
steering tension.
bIndIng
In order to operate, the receiver must be bound to
the transmitter. Binding is the process of teaching
the receiver the specific transmitter’s code called
GUID (Globally Unique Identifier). When a receiver is
bound to a transmitter/ model memory, the receiver
will only respond to that specific transmitter/ model
memory (see ModelMatch).
ModelMaTCh
The DX3R features patented ModelMatch technology
that prevents operating a model using the wrong
model memory. During the binding process, the
receiver actually stores the code that is assigned
to the specific model that is currently selected in
the transmitter. For example: if the model that is
selected in the transmitter is model #3, when a
receiver is bound to that transmitter, the receiver will
only operate when model #3 is selected. If another
model memory is selected (model #5 for example)
the receiver will not connect. If model three is
again selected in the transmitter, the receiver bound
to model #3 will connect. ModelMatch prevents
operating a model using the wrong model memory.
faIlsafe
Failsafe positions are also set during binding. In
the unlikely event that the radio link is lost during
use, the receiver will drive the servos to their
preprogrammed failsafe positions (normally full
brakes and straight steering). If the receiver is turned
on prior to turning on the transmitter, the receiver
will enter the failsafe mode, driving the servos to
their preset failsafe positions. When the transmitter
is turned on, normal control is resumed. Failsafe
servo positions are set during binding (see binding
a receiver below).
