If it was a new type radio, 2.4g, they probably meant "binding". that's where you match Tx to Rx. I flew RC for a few years. Planes bursting into flames is sometimes caused by a ruptured LiPo battery pack. Those things can be dangerous if not treated with respect. The fuel is alcohol, caster oil and nitro methane mix. I starting to miss it lol. Insurance is usually handled by M.A.A.C. Most established clubs and fields won't let you fly without it.
