Rebinding KingKong 210GT with Turnigy i6s

[Gene Knight]

On a rather embarrassing note, as I was poking through the Turnigy I6s menus, I happened to activate the "receiver bind" function, and have totally lost the binding between drone and transmitter.

On the KingKong 210GT, can anyone identify the receiver? Is it the Turnigy i6s receiver, if that's the transmitter that's used? Is it possible to re-bind without taking the drone apart? Thanks!

Sigh. I'm doing a pretty good job of answering my own questions tonight. Indeed, close inspection shows that there are three servo pins that are accessible on the side of the receiver. Sliding the binding plug over them does indeed put the receiver in binding mode, and I now have transmitter and receiver connected again.

Alas, although the transmitter beeps when the drone is powered up, and shows the drone's battery voltage, the drone will *not* respond to throttle.

It's been working fine for days, and I did no extreme pulling or wiggling in the course of looking for the binding pins.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Any ideas? Thanks!

Haven't got a clue, Gene. But Happy New Year and welcome to the forum. Also.........welcome to the wonderful, wacky world of RC quadcopters............it's a hoot at times..........

Thanks! Happy New Year to you all!

I notice now that the F3 Flight Controller has a solid blue light and a blinking red light.

Is there a manual available for the F3?
Is there some standard setup of the FC that I have overlooked in the rebinding?

Looking at the manual I see this, which seems a bit odd.

Take the bind plug off.

Thanks all!

Actually, the binding was the least of my problems. Plug in Binding Plug. Power On. Hit Bind Rx on the transmitter, and it's all set. My problem was that the rebinding erased all the settings that had been pre-programmed in the transmitter. Like "Arm" and "Beginner" mode. Also, the 1.x version of CleanFlight on the FC is incompatible with the current CleanFlight Configurator that's available. I figured it out, and wrote it up, and posted it as "How to rebind and program a KingKong 210GT, and probably many other drones, with CleanFlight."

Again, Thanks!

Have you downloaded the standalone cleanflight. The Chrome one will stop soon same with betaflight & blheli.
So you will have to download off github.

The only thing you have to touch regarding the rx in CF is the modes tab.
& configuration tab, Rx ppm.
