Receiver
Receiver Type - Select the receiver type that you are using. 'Std' stands for standard RC receiver with individual wire connections for each channel. Use the UDI option for JR XBUS (Mode B), Graupner SUMD and SRXL receivers. If you are using Spektrum satellites select the type of satellite (DSM2 or DSMX), not the capability of your transmitter.
Standard Receiver Connections - Use the supplied wires to connect the Vortex to the receiver as shown below. Pay attention to the specific channel order of your receiver as it may differ from the illustrations.


One Wire Receiver Connections - Use the supplied heavy duty Male-to-Male servo cable to connect the Vortex to the receiver as shown below.


Satellite Receiver Connections - Connect the satellite receivers as shown below. Both receivers must be of the same type; either both DSM2 or both DSMX. Follow the radio manufacturer's recommendation regarding the number of receivers needed for a particular model. If you are using only one, it must be connected to SRX1.


Bind Sat RXs Now? - You must bind the satellite receivers via the Vortex at least once even if they have been previously bound to the radio. The bind process also configures the Vortex for the number of satellite receivers you will be using.
Bind TX Now - If you chose to bind the satellite receivers they should now be flashing. Please complete the bind process using your radio. When the lights on the receivers are lit constantly click next.
Aileron Channel - Choose which channel of your radio system is assigned to each control. For example, on Futaba radios the aileron is operated by channel 1, elevator by channel 2, etc. If you are unsure check the order that channels are listed in the servo monitor menu of your radio or its user guide. This channel assignment is not applicable when using standard receiver.
Elevator Channel - As above.
Rudder Channel - As above.
Pitch Channel - As above.
Throttle Channel - As above.
Gyro Channel - As above.
Complete - The receiver setup is now complete. Please proceed to the transmitter setup.
