Transmitter Binding

a 2.4GHz receiver needs to be 'bound' to the transmitter before it can receive signals from it. The process involves the Rx identifying a unique code being emitted from the Tx, and then the two components lock together on an available frequency. The process usually only takes a few seconds. Every flyer who binds a 2.4GHz radio and receiver are immediately given their own unique code that is as unique as a fingerprint. This ensures that the flyer will never have a conflict with any other flyer's code.

Imagine 100 flyers all using 2.4GHz radios and receivers flying at the same time at the same field (must be a really big flying field!) without any interference. That's the beauty of 2.4GHz.
