Fly-Dream 2.4GHz V3 Radio Control System
Thank you for purchasing our Fly-Dream 2.4GHz V3 Radio Control System. We are sure you will enjoy it. The
following notes will guide you through the simple set up procedures.
FD 2.4GHz V3 radio control system
FD 2.4GHz works with the standard of
Frequency-Hopping Spread Spectrum
(FHSS). It changes frequency
quickly within each band, so that any interfering signal from the environment does not disturb the signal
path between the transmitter and the receiver. This ensures safe, stable operation over a wide range of
conditions likely to be encountered at any flying field.
FD 2.4GHz V3 radio control system’s features
◆Long range (>1200m on ground for 6 and 8 channel systems, >450m for 4 channel system)
◆Light, small, long range receivers.
◆Failsafe. You can set the receiver to default to a pre-set position on all channels in the unlikely
event of signal loss.
◆Automatic frequency scan when turning on the transmitter and receiver ensures no frequency
clash and maximum safety.
◆Transmitter antenna design ensures a stable signal.
◆Bind once, use forever!
◆Range test. Convenient method to check the performance of the system which means you won’t
need to walk kilometers away.
◆Ultra-low-power design. Low power consumption by Transmitter modules and Receivers.

Install the transmitter module
1. Remove the original transmitter module.
2. Put the FD 2.4GHz transmitter module into the module port and screw on the transmitter
antenna.
3. Set your transmitter to PPM / FM mode.
Bind and set Failsafe on the receiver(s)
1. Before installing the receiver(s) in your model(s) follow the instructions below to bind the
receiver to the transmitter.
2. You can set failsafe either in the model or on the bench. It is best to check that the control
surface positions for failsafe are what was intended before flying.
Note: When you do install the receiver in the model try to place the tip of the antenna (the silver
bit(s) approx 33mm long) away from objects with high conductivity, such as metal parts, servos,
ESC's, battery packs, wires, and carbon fiber structures. For receivers with 2 antennas position the
tips of the antennas so they are approximately 90 deg to each other. If possible put the tip of the
antennas (the 33mm long silver bit) outside of the fuselage for maximum reception.
Bind receivers
1. Turn the transmitter on. Make sure that your transmitter is set to PPM (FM) mode, and then
turn the transmitter off. Note:- Receivers will not bind if the transmitter is set to PCM mode.
2. Press the “BIND” button on the TX module and turn on the transmitter. The LED on the module
will light green for 0.5s then go off for 1s. Release the button within this 1s. When you have
changed to “BIND” mode, the LED on the module will flash between red and green. You are then
ready to bind the receivers.

Plug the FD code ring into the 4th channel.
Connect the receiver to the battery, The LED on
the receiver will light. Immediately pull out the
FD code ring (The LED lights for 2 seconds,
make sure to pull out the code ring within 2
seconds). The LED will flash quickly and
go out.
This shows that the receiver has bound to the
module. Turn off the power to the receiver. If
you do not want to bind more receivers at this
time, turn off the transmitter
Press and hold the button on the receiver
（under the sign of Vthumb ）. Connect the
receiver to the battery. The LED on the
receiver will light red (about 2S),
Immediately (while the LED is on) release the
receiver button. The LED will flash quickly
several times and go out. Turn off the power
to the receiver. If you do not want to bind
more receivers at this time, turn off the
transmitter.
4. Check system operation.
Turn the transmitter on. The module LED should be green. Connect the receiver to the battery.
The red LED on the receiver will flash three times (now it is searching for the frequency) and light
red, indicating the receiver is operating properly. The LED on the receiver will not light when
there is no signal.
After following these steps to program your transmitter and receiver, both modules will continue
to operate together each time you use the modules without further binding.
Set Failsafe
Set failsafe after initial binding or when you change the receiver to another model.
It is best to set failsafe with the receiver connected to all the functions that you intend to use in
your model.
IS-4R0 and IS-4R
IS-6R and IS-8R
1. After initial binding, turn on the transmitter.
2. Plug into FD code ring to the 4th channel.
Connect the receiver to the battery (or turn on the
power switch on the receiver). The LED on the
receiver will light, then go out. Take off the FD
code immediately the LED comes on. (The LED
will light for only 2 seconds. Make sure to get the
code ring off within 2 seconds.) The LED on the
receiver will then go on.
3. Move the controls on your transmitter to
where you want the surfaces / motor etc to be in
the event of lost signal. Turn off the transmitter.
The receiver will flash several times; this shows
the receiver has remembered the position which
you have set. In the rare event that your system
losses signal, all channels will return to the
position which you have set.
4. Turn off the power to the receiver. Failsafe is
now set.
5. Check that failsafe works, by turning on the
transmitter then the receiver / model. Turn off the
transmitter. The controls should go to their preset
position. They will return to those on the
transmitter when power is restored.
6. After setting failsafe and making sure the
receiver works normally, plug the servo into the
4th channel.
7. Go Fly.
1. After initial binding, turn on the transmitter.
2. Press and hold the button on the
receiver(under the sign of “Vthumb”).
Connect the receiver to the battery (or turn on
the power switch on the receiver). The LED on
the receiver will light（about 1s） and then go
out for about 1s）. At this time (when the LED
off) remove your hand from the receiver
button. The LED on the receiver will then go
on.
3. Move the controls on your transmitter to
where you want the surfaces / motor etc to be
in the event of lost signal. Turn off the
transmitter. The receiver will flash several
times; this shows the receiver has remembered
the position which you have set. In the rare
event that your system losses signal, all
channels will return to the position which you
have set.
4. Turn off the power to the receiver. Failsafe
is now set.
5. Check that failsafe works, by turning on the
transmitter then the receiver / model. Turn off
the transmitter. The controls should go to their
preset position. They will return to those on
the transmitter when power is restored.
6. Go Fly.

1). Have a friend hold the model for you. Position the model at least two feet (60cm) above
non-metal contaminated ground. If you don’t have anyone to help you, use something like a
wooden bench. Make sure the model cannot move under its own power.
2). Press the “RANGE” button on the module and turn on the transmitter. The yellow LED will
light for 0.5s then go out for 1s. Make sure you release the “RANGE” button within this 1s. The
LED on the module will light yellow. The module is now in “RANGE” mode.
3). Move control sticks on the transmitter and verify that the model is responding normally. Move
away from the model to approx 50m (IS-6R, IS-8R) or 30m (IS-4R). If the control surfaces move as
expected it shows the TX module and receiver are working as expected and can be used. If control
is lost, or the model behaves abnormally, please check and resolve any problems before
conducting another range test. Do not fly if the range test fails and cannot be fixed.
4). When range testing is complete, press the “RANGE” button on the Tx module. The LED on the
TX module will light green, indicating that the TX module has returned to its normal power state.
You can now fly.
During the range test the Transmitter module will have a range of approx 50m (IS-6R, IS-8R)
and 30m (IS-4R). In normal power mode, range is greater than 1,200 meters (IS-6R and IS-8R)
and 450 meters (IS-4R).
