 /* spektrumBind function ported from Baseflight. It's used to bind satellite receiver to TX.
  * Function must be called immediately after startup so that we don't miss satellite bind window.
  * Known parameters. Tested with DSMX satellite and DX8 radio. Framerate (11ms or 22ms) must be selected from TX.
