Problem Possible Cause Solution
Aircraft will not
connect (after
binding) to
transmitter
Transmitter too near aircraft during connecting
process
Move powered transmitter a few feet from aircraft, disconnect and reconnect flight
battery to aircraft
Aircraft or transmitter is too close to large metal
object, wireless source or another transmitter Move aircraft and transmitter to another location and attempt connecting again
Bind plug left installed in bind port Rebind transmitter to the aircraft and remove the bind plug before cycling power
Aircraft bound to different model memory
(ModelMatchTM radios only) Select correct model memory on transmitter
Flight battery/Transmitter battery charge is too low Replace/recharge batteries
Transmitter may have been bound to a different
aircraft using different DSM protocol Bind aircraft to transmitter
Control surface does
not move
Control surface, control horn, linkage or servo damage Replace or repair damaged parts and adjust controls
Wire damaged or connections loose Do a check of wires and connections, connect or replace as needed
Transmitter is not bound correctly or the incorrect
airplanes was selected Re-bind or select correct airplanes in transmitter
Flight battery charge is low Fully recharge flight battery
BEC (Battery Elimination Circuit) of the ESC is damaged Replace ESC
Controls reversed Transmitter settings are reversed Perform the Control Direction Test and adjust the controls on transmitter appropriately
Motor power pulses
then motor loses
power
ESC uses default soft Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC) Recharge flight battery or replace battery that is no longer performing
Weather conditions might be too cold Postpone flight until weather is warmer
Battery is old, worn out, or damaged Replace battery
Battery C rating might be too small Use recommended battery

AMA National Model Aircraft Safety Code
Academy of Model Aeronautics
National Model Aircraft Safety Code
Effective January 1, 2018
A model aircraft is a non-human-carrying device capable of sustained flight within visual line of sight of the pilot or spotter(s). It may not exceed limitations of this code
and is intended exclusively for sport, recreation, education and/or competition. All model flights must be conducted in accordance with this safety code and related AMA
guidelines, any additional rules specific to the flying site, as well as all applicable laws and regulations.
As an AMA member I agree:
• I will not fly a model aircraft in a careless or reckless manner.
• I will not interfere with and will yield the right of way to all human-carrying
aircraftusing AMA’s See and Avoid Guidance and a spotter when appropriate.
• I will not operate any model aircraft while I am under the influence of alcohol or
any drug that could adversely affect my ability to safely control the model.
• I will avoid flying directly over unprotected people, moving vehicles, and
occupied structures.
• I will fly Free Flight (FF) and Control Line (CL) models in compliance with AMA’s
safety programming.
• I will maintain visual contact of an RC model aircraft without enhancement other
than corrective lenses prescribed to me. When using an advanced flight system,
such as an autopilot, or flying First-Person View (FPV), I will comply with AMA’s
Advanced Flight System programming.
• I will only fly models weighing more than 55 pounds, including fuel, if certified
through AMA’s Large Model Airplane Program.
• I will only fly a turbine-powered model aircraft in compliance with AMA’s Gas
Turbine Program.
• I will not fly a powered model outdoors closer than 25 feet to any individual,
except for myself or my helper(s) located at the flightline, unless I am taking off
and landing, or as otherwise provided in AMA’s Competition Regulation.
• I will use an established safety line to separate all model aircraft operations
from spectators and bystanders.
