O3 Air Unit Binding
Ensure all devices are updated to the latest firmware versions before proceeding with linking.
The air unit must be linked to the goggles before the remote controller.
- Power on the air unit, the goggles, and the remote controller.
- Press the link button of the air unit and the goggles respectively. The linking status indicator of the air unit will blink red, and the goggles will start to beep continually.
- Maintain a distance of within 0.5 meters between the air unit and the goggles. Upon successful linking, the air unit's linking status indicator will turn solid green, the goggles will stop beeping, and the live view will be displayed.
- Press the link button of the air unit again; the linking status indicator will blink red. Press and hold the power button of the remote controller. The remote controller will start to beep continually, and the battery level LEDs will blink in sequence.
- Maintain a distance of within 0.5 meters between the air unit and the remote controller. Upon successful linking, the air unit's linking status indicator will turn solid green, and the remote controller will stop beeping.
How to Bind Falcon
Follow these steps to bind your Falcon system:
- Turn on the FPV Goggles, Remote Controller, and power the Quadcopter. Click the bind button on the FPV Goggles; a beep sound indicates the goggles are in binding status.
- Press the Falcon button; the light turns red, indicating that the Falcon is binding. When the bind succeeds, the goggles will emit beep sounds, the light will turn solid green, and the FPV Goggles will display the live images.
- Press the C1 Custom Button, Record Button, and Right Scroll Wheel Button simultaneously. The blue light will flash with beep sounds, indicating the controller is in binding status.
- Press the Falcon Bind Button; the light turns red, indicating binding. When the binding succeeds, the Falcon light and the controller's light will turn green.

First Usage Guidance
Search for and download the 'SpeedyBee' app from the Google Play Store or App Store. Power the quadcopter and launch the SpeedyBee app. Search for the quadcopter via Bluetooth. The first usage guidance will appear in the app. Follow the on-screen steps to bind your radio receiver, and then enjoy flying!
TX800 Settings
LED LIGHT Indicators
State | Blue LED (Channel) | Red LED (Band) | Orange LED (Power) |
---|---|---|---|
Lock | Constantly ON: The current frequency point is Channel 1. | Red LED will keep blinking; at this time, the Red LED is not used to indicate the current Band information. | Orange LED will keep blinking; at this time, the Orange LED is not used for indicating the current Power information. |
Unlock | OFF: The current frequency point is one of Channel 2~Channel 8. | Constantly ON: The current band is Band 1. Constantly ON: The current band is one of Band 2 ~ Band 6. |
Light OFF: 25mW Blinking once in 2 seconds: 200mW Blinking once in 1 second: 400mW Constantly ON: 800mW Blinking twice in 1 second (fastFlash): PIT mode |
Power Setup (Lock & Unlock)
The factory default setting is LOCK mode, indicated by a red LED blinking, with only 25mW power available. You can switch to UNLOCK mode by long-pressing the button for 10 seconds. In UNLOCK mode, the red LED will be constantly ON or OFF, but not blinking.
Note: Before unlocking your VTX, it is highly recommended to familiarize yourself with the rules and regulations in your country regarding frequency usage to avoid potential fines or confiscation of your device.
How to Bind TBS Nano RX
Follow these steps to bind your TBS Nano RX receiver:
- Press and hold the bind button of the TBS Nano Rx receiver, and power on the quad simultaneously. Release the bind button; the green light on the receiver will start to blink rapidly. Then, long-press the bind button again for 8 seconds until the green light turns off and the red light blinks slowly. At this point, a dialog box asking 'Update Micro TX?' will appear on the radio screen; select '[ENTER]'.
- The receiver will bind automatically after updating. When binding succeeds, the screen will display "Binding OK", and the receiver will show a solid green light.

ELRS Binding
Before binding, it is recommended to verify that the firmware of the module and the receiver are consistent. If they are not, use the SpeedyBee APP to update the firmware.
- Power the drone on and off three times to enable the receiver to enter binding mode. When the receiver's LED flashes quickly twice, it indicates that the receiver has entered binding mode.
- For the RadioMaster TX16S remote controller, power it on and long-press the SYS button to access the TOOLS interface. Slide the cursor down, select ExpressLRS, then select Bind, and press Enter.
- When the receiver shows a solid LED, it indicates that the binding is successful.

DFU Hijacking Prevention
Connecting the receiver of the Bee 35 ELRS or the PNP version to the UART3 port of the flight controller may cause a DFU hijacking issue, preventing entry into DFU mode for firmware flashing. However, this does not affect flight operations. For more detailed information, please refer to the official documentation of Betaflight: Betaflight DFU Hijacking Guide.
Therefore, when flashing the flight controller firmware on the Master5 V2 ELRS and PNP drone, it is necessary to first disconnect the connection between the receiver and the flight controller's cable (no need to desolder the cable). Reconnect the receiver's cable after flashing.

Check Before Take Off
- Conduct an inspection of the drone. Check for any broken parts or damage, and perform further checks or repairs if needed.
- Confirm that the propellers are installed in the correct direction and that all screws are securely locked.
- Ensure the battery is fixed by the strap. Adjust or fix it for balance, especially if it might be hit by propellers.
- Check the battery voltage. When fully charged, it should read 16.8V for a 4S battery or 25.2V for a 6S battery.
- Turn on the controller and select the correct model. Ensure the arming switch is in the "disarmed" position and the throttle is at its lowest point.
- Turn on the FPV Goggles or screen to check for any interference.
- After powering the drone, test arming in a safe distance (at least 3 meters) and check if the propellers are working normally.
- Take off in a safe area clear of people, and enjoy your flying!
