SAFE technology

AS3X® Receiver with Optional-Use SAFE® Select Flight Envelope Protection
Already own a Spektrum™ transmitter? Bind-N-Fly (BNF) aircraft make entering the air rapidly and with the best control experience possible much easier than ever. They come out of the box with the power system, servos and a Spektrum 2.4GHz receiver installed so all you need to do is bind the receiver to a compatible transmitter, finish any last assembly, and fly!

This Bind-N-Fly® Basic model is geared up with a Spektrum™ 2.4GHz DSMX® receiver including AS3X (Synthetic Stabilization – 3-aXis) innovation that works behind the scenes to smooth out the results of wind and turbulence so you delight in a sense of stability and accuracy that makes it feel like you're flying a much bigger, skillfully tuned aircraft.

If this is your very first biplane, or you want an additional margin of safety while familiarizing yourself with the aircraft, you can enable the optional-use SAFE® Select flight envelope protection innovation developed into the receiver.

With SAFE Select made it possible for, you get:

Pitch and Bank Angle Limits
These envelope limits keep the aircraft from rolling or pitching upside down. They also avoid excessive climb or dive angles.

Automatic Self-Leveling
The aircraft immediately goes back to and holds level flight when the sticks are released and in the center position. It's also useful for keeping the wings level during takeoffs/launches and landings.

Easy Switch Assignment—No Complex Programming Required
The easy treatment for appointing a transmitter switch to turn SAFE Select functions on and off does not require any intricate programming and takes just a couple of seconds.

If you do not wish to enable the SAFE Select functions, just bind the receiver typically and it will function like a basic AS3X receiver.
