I bought a used apprentice sts with the spektrum A3230 rx and can’t get it to bind with my DX5E or DX7 transmitters. Has anyone had this issue?

The A3230 is a flight controller not a receiver. You should have a small receiver on the inside side of your Apprentice. With the airplane and transmitter switches off plug in the battery. Press the little button on the receiver and turn on the Apprentices switch. You should see it blinking and you can stop pressing the button. Press the bind button on the transmitter and turn it on and it 'll take a few seconds to bind and then go through it's SAFE wag the servos stuff.

Evan I can see the wiring is different on the first picture. The wires coming out of the side and going to the rx did not come with the airplane. I’ve tried to contact horizon hobbies to find out what I was missing but have gotten no response. Can I use any spektrum rx with the A3230? The cable going into the side of the rx has me confused because I’ve never had a cable and plug like it. Thanks Gary

Evan I got a buddy who researches well to help me and he found where a Spektrum 4650dsmx srxl2 is compatible with the A3230 and has the cable to hook up to the rx. I’m glad you sent the pictures which helped very much. I ordered one off eBay for $27.00 which was not bad. Hope to get it flying soon. Thanks a lot Gary
