Binding DSMX Receiver with Flip32 F4 and DXE [SOLVED]

[BillDebevc]

Hello,

I am having a little issue binding my receiver to the transmitter. I am able to bind it at the Local Hobby Shop using their stuff, but not with my stuff. That is if they connect my receiver to their big controller with a bunch of plugs and using a bind plug it binds just fine. So I know it binds, It just won't bind using the Flip32 F4 controller.

I have searched the web and youtube to find a solution, but I have not found one that works.

I have tried using "set spektrum_sat_bind=9" and "set spektrum_sat_bind=8" in the CLI in Betaflight. I have also tried using the button on the receiver. When using the button I get the flashing light on the receiver, but it fails to bind when I hit the bind button, I then get the "I don't like you" beep on the transmitter.

Attached are images of the Receiver and Flight controller, the transmitter is a DXE and has the CleanFlight programming with 9 channels selected. I am also running the latest firmware on the F4 and transmitter.

If they did a bind for you at the shop, you shouldn't need to do it again. The bind stays with the receiver, not the fc.

 

[BillDebevc]

You are correct. but whenever you program the DXe transmitter it loses it's bind. Also I don't want to run back to the shop every time I need to bind it.

Sorry i can't help, not sure about that one. I have done the "run to the hobby shop" deal....lol. Was embarrassing, they had it bound in 5 secs, lol, i couldnt get it to bind to save my life. They got it to bind the same way i tried, said it happens all the time...lol

 

[BillDebevc]

Yep, been there twice already.

Are you putting a few feet of space between the transmitter and receiver? Sometimes it won't work if they are too close to each other.

Also, if it worked with a binding plug at the shop, can you try a binding plug at home?

 

[VirtueViolater]

Maybe you are using the wrong protocol or not set right under configuration?

 

[BillDebevc]

@theGreenOrange Don't have a binding plug here at home, Can you plug a binding plug in to the FLIP32 F4?

@VirtueViolater Got the protocol set to SPEKTRUM2048 and TAER1234

 

[VirtueViolater]

Sounds like to me you are bound but the fc isn't recognising it.

 

[VirtueViolater]

Do you have cppm set also? (or what ever protocol you are using)

 

[theGreenOrange]

The only binding plugs I have ever seen is just a 3-pin dupont servo connector with a wire connecting the two puter pins, and it plugs into the receiver.

 

[VirtueViolater]

I think it just bridges v to signal( or is it ground?)

 

[BillDebevc]

I figured it out.

I had to disconnect the receiver from the flight controller. Then hold the button down on the receiver and supply 3.3 volts, Once the light starts to blink you can bind the DXe.

Good news, post some pics or flight footage sometime

 

[BillDebevc]

Here is what I have so far.

Looking good, I have never seen that fc mount design before. Pretty cool, love the colors.

Looks great!
