Bind iA6 RX (Receiver) to i6 TX (Transmitter)

I bought my iA6 RX here: goo.gl/bAfFWE or with iBus Port goo.gl/GQRjii TX and RX bundle: goo.gl/B68GvM WARNING to bind a RX & TX you need to supply power. If you connect it incorrectly you will fry your board. If in doubt, double check with a meter ;-) The video shows a step by step how to do it correctly.

[@awakesleo]

It's dangerous and not correct show the binding procedure without specifying informations about voltage In most cases, most RXs need from 3,5V to a maximum of 7,2V; In this case (FSIA6), it require a maximum of 6,5V (it's written in top part of RX) So you can use lot of power supply but: FIRST: You've to check battery voltage; if you use a 3s(or more lipo) it has to be partially discharged (check with a tester because can't exceed 6,5V) OR use a classical power supply of 4,5V OR use every universal power supply with V regulator OR use a power bank with usb cable on a side and skinned cables (black and red) on other side OR use the connector of a PDB with 5V (the voltage tipically required by a fpv cam) AND ALSO CHECK the polarity of the battery and FSIA6 (and every RXs), because the plus is in the middle of every 3pins row and the minus on the right the left pin is for signal wire. [ signal> ° ° °

[@cherryblosom945]

Your USB suggestion worked like a charm. Thank you. I was pretty terrified of frying this RX. Much appreciated mate, even 3 years later.

[@sheastanley9424]

Like most other people, my receiver sent sparks flying. I should have read the comments.

[@BobbyloujoOfficial]

Just fried my receiver! Wonderful!

[@kyeegray]

This video needs to come down. It is way too easy to fry your receiver. Just glancing through the comments I can see that this is doing more harm than good.

[@DJBBBOSS]

You should use a battery pack that is around 5v to 6v . I bind my RX's by using either a motor controller supply or I have a 6v Nicd battery pack I use often for testing things like LEDs and RX's when they arrive by post.

[@TiggersRCReviewsTTFN]

Sorry you fried yours, it works as I clearly show, and you have to power it up to do the process, so if you connect it wrong it will always fry it, just like if you connected you quad battery the wrong way you kiss goodbye to your PDB. This has helped loads of people and I'm sure it will continue too. Hope you find a way that works for you. Thanks for sharing your views.

Be careful plugging in your balancer cable, I did this wrong and fried the Rx and screwed up my balancer connector. Cost me $15 and a week of waiting, and that's if I'm able to fix the 3s lipo.

[@ernestosaboia]

Use the ESC as power supply to be safe (Plug the battery into the ESC, then plug the ESC in the channel 3 or throttle channel).

[@thebunkreport]

Yup.

[@AImagetools]

I'm worried that if I plug my battery in it will fry the receiver. Is it safe? Also are you using the eachine 250 racer battery?

[@TiggersRCReviewsTTFN]

Yep it will fry in a nano second if you get it wrong for sure, follow it carefully it will be OK, I don't know another way of doing this. Only you can decide whether you go for it or not. Yes I used 250 Racer battery. Good luck

People need to flag this video. Essentially this procedure can be dangerous. Comments indicate damage has been done. Clear modification or explanation of this procedure is needed. It's irresponsible and everyone needs to flag this video. Poster I realize it helps some people. They are getting lucky and your ok with that. I wonder if someone added up all the "I burned up my receiver" posts what the dollar amount would be? Take it down or add warning in the video.

[@TiggersRCReviewsTTFN]

Glad it helped, I'm no where near my stuff but as you say at 1:03 on video I clearly show red wire going into left hand pin, different manufacturers use different colour wires but red is always red and pretty sure LIVE ;-) Hope that clears it up for you, and no more frying receivers, but TBH why do you think I made this video, yep we all do it LOL

Thanks for the informative video. I broke one of my antennas now im confused whether to replace the whole receiver or buy a spare antenna and solder. Please advise. Is this be default sbus or ppm? Flysky ia6

[@monolith7796]

You caused me to burn my recever

[@carllubbok4375]

Good video. I did exactly as you demonstrated. My receiver has a slow blink so I think it has binded. However, when you look at the right corner of LCD screen of i6 transmitter.... it only shows TX and battery status. It does not show the RX with battery status. What is wrong?

[@TiggersRCReviewsTTFN]

There is no telemetry so that is normal ;-)

[@MarcoJetti]

Tigger's RC Reviews It DOES have telemetry also the ia6 version (not only the iA6b). I think the issue is about not compatibility between radio and RX firmware. I have the same problem of not seeing Error data rate and voltage ONLY when I use Flysky radio and Turnigy Tx (TGY-iA6).

[@sharkyfpv5701]

hi there what do u do if u not got the bind plug as I brought my drone as a rtf model but it's not binding any more I got the eachine assassin 180 v2 can u help me please will a spektrum binding plug work its got the same adaptor

[@agoeseko1368]

fs-IA6 receiver, can it bind like that?

[@JimmyDean1992]

Can that first bank of terminals.. The one that is B/VCC.. Can that be used as an accessory port to turn lights on and off? Or is it just specifically used for binding purposes?

[@SamWattersonFollow]

What does the RX with the battery icon on the controller mean? Because my controller is doing the same thing.

[@thebunkreport]

Why on earth would anyone do this? Plug the battery into the ESC and then plug the ESC into channel 3. Simple and you can use just about any battery like that as long as your ESC regulates the voltage.

Ive got the turnigy 6 channel receiver. It says we need a 6V battery but my battery has 8.4 V. Am i still able to use it to bind?

[@TiggersRCReviewsTTFN]

I thought the Turnigy is the same just re-badged as this one, but I may be wrong. So it should be fine, but it's your RX, this method works but some have connected it incorrectly and fried the board. If you connect any battery round the wrong way you will fry it ;-) Good luck with whatever you choose

[@maayaa77]

Thanks mate fried my receiver fucking seriously

[@germangismondi944]

can you tell me what battery are you using for the reciever .? i

[@fortunatoangelini138]

but for every model i create on the TX i have to bind it another time? i have tryed today the first one is binded and the other one no.. of course sorry for my 'english'

[@TiggersRCReviewsTTFN]

Are you confining that it is saved? I come out of it then check it before exit. mine remembers all the different quads, hope you get it sorted

[@creylo200]

Like everyone else, i fried my reciever. The way you so calmly just insert the thing and don't EVEN EXPLAIN that your reciever will instantly die if you put it in the wrong way is frustrating. There are safer options, and yet you explain the lost destructive one without even warning us.

[@manuelc2k]

It is completely safe to connect the battery like that? Always the red wire in the signal position?

[@TiggersRCReviewsTTFN]

yeah you saw it live here so no reason why it shouldn't work, cheers

[@chrispearson7303]

Thanks,tried your method and worked great.No problem using balance lead as you show.

[@I3en397]

Does the the transmitter show the voltage of the lipo in the aircraft and warns you if it's too low?

[@thexherring2563]

Thanks bro saved my life

[@DavidVegaBR]

And after the success bind process (as showed in this video), low blinking lights in the receiver... but no RX showing in menu in my Transmitter... What I am missing ? Thanks !

[@TiggersRCReviewsTTFN]

It doesn't have telemetry so you wont get RX info ;-)

[@MarcoJetti]

I have the same problem! Radio is Flysky and RX is Turnigy! They are not totally compatible as I don't get Error rate and Voltage data! This video is not saying this issue.

[@TiggersRCReviewsTTFN]

Maybe, after binding try removing bind plug and then power off as opposed to power off then bind plug should sort it

[@MarcoJetti]

Tigger's RC Reviews Incredible... I tried so many times with that sequence and it was not binding with "OK" statement.... it finally worked! I can confirm now that Flysky radio is totally compatible with Turnigy receiver (both voltage and error rate are sent to radio). Thank you for your help.

[@jamiemonkey1362]

I have the same problem. I have tried and tried. But it just will not work. Red light goes to a slow pulse. But that's it.

You can use any battery as you are only using one cell when you use the balance cable :~)

I dont get the rx battery symbol up on my screen but the rx light still lights constant. Is it bound fully or not. I have the Flysky badged i6 if that makes a difference at all. Thanks.

[@TiggersRCReviewsTTFN]

+thra5herxb12s It should be bound, IMHO, I have never had a partial bind so it is either bound or not. Not familiar with Flysky but assume they are the same TX just rebadged. Hope it works

[@thra5herxb12s]

They look identical except the badge and the screen logo. It all seems to connect and arms / disarms ok, and all the models functions seem ok. I thought maybe there was something in the receiver setup that I have missed.
