mspitz, I would like to thank you very much, your video helps me to bind my receiver !

Your welcome. Have fun flying.

I just successfully completed this mod. I'm not sure if the electronics have changed on the 4 in 1's, but I was not able to get the main motor to function properly until I used the Aux 1 channel for my Throt lead to the 4 in 1. The reason this works is because Aux 1 is used for Pitch, and Pitch has the same output as Throt.

This was done with a newer HBFP V2, DX7 and an AR6110e

Turns out the servo extension wires I had were goofy - the red and black wires swapped places at the terminals - so for instance.

Once I reworked it I was able to get power to the Rx.

Thx!

Hey mspitz -

I'm having trouble getting power to the AR6110e - any thoughts?

I have the main and tail motor wires from the 4 in 1 going to the receivers throt and rudd terminals & have the bind plug on. The 4 in 1 (I guess now a 3 in 1) is powering up, but the receiver is not.

I have an image of my set up if you're willing to take a peak

Assuming your using a brushed motor (stock or after market) try taking a non-recharable D battery and connect the motor to it to confirm that the motor is not the problem.

Is the tail motor turning on? If it is you can also try swapping the main motor and tail connectors and see if both motors work and if the problem might be the 4in1's main motor esc.

Also try running the motor by itself (disconnected from the pinion & gears) to see if that resistance to the gears might be an issue. GL

The motor is not turning on at all. The ESC seems to be arming (LED is constant green). The aileron and elevator servos seem to be working correctly. I'd probably classify my skill level as intermediate.

Hi Jay,

What is happening with your motor? Is it not turning on, is the rotation incorrect, can you check if the ESC is arming? Also give me an idea of your skill level. Thx.
