Impostare
Installazione dell'antenna
The R7308SB has two antennas to maximize signal reception and provide a diversity antenna system. Ensure the two antennas are placed at 90 degrees to each other for optimal performance.
- You must leave 30mm at the tip of the antenna fully exposed. If the exposed antenna should be secured so that it cannot move around, bend back inside your aircraft.
- Non tagliare o avvolgere il cavo dell'antenna del ricevitore.
- The antennas must be mounted in such a way as to assure they are strain relieved.
- Tenere l'antenna il più lontano possibile dal motore, dall'ESC e da altre fonti di rumore.
- Non toccare l'antenna con metallo, carbonio o altro materiale conduttivo.

Collegamento di potenza
The receiver requires a power supply of 3.7V to 7.4V. It is recommended to use an ESC (Electronic Speed Controller) to regulate the power supply to avoid direct battery connection, which could lead to reverse polarity damage. The voltagL'intervallo è compreso tra 3.5 V e 8.4 V.
Definizione del connettore
Generally, the signal line is located near the positive terminal, with the positive terminal in the middle and the negative terminal on the ground. Do not connect a connector as shown in the figure to avoid short-circuiting.
Installazione tipica
The R7308SB supports S.BUS2 and S.BUS for simplified wiring, especially with systems like Microbeat, HC3X, and VBar. The diagram below illustrates a typical setup.

Istruzioni per l'uso
Linking the Receiver to the Transmitter
To establish communication between the R7308SB receiver and your FASSTest compatible transmitter, follow these steps:
- Turn on the receiver. (Transmitter is always OFF)
- Press and hold the SW (switch) for 5 seconds to link. The LED will blink RED → ORANGE → GREEN → ORANGE (slow blink).
- Release the switch. The LED will blink ORANGE once.
- Press the switch again. The LED will blink ORANGE twice.
- Press and hold the SW. The LED will blink ORANGE.
- Release the SW. The LED will turn solid ORANGE.
- Spegnere il ricevitore.
After restarting, the LINK LED should light up solid ORANGE, indicating a successful link.
Doppio sistema di collegamento Rx
For dual receiver setups in an aircraft, one receiver can become unable to communicate, while the other receiver remains operational. This system ensures redundancy.
- Turn on the receiver. (Transmitter is always OFF)
- Tenere premuto il tasto SW per almeno 5 secondi.
- Release the switch here.
- Press SW once more to return to flashing orange once.
- Premere l'interruttore.
- Blinks GREEN twice.
- Tieni premuto il tasto SW.
- Blinks ORANGE.
- Release SW.
- Solid ORANGE.
In Dual Rx Link mode, the SB2/RX port is for reception only. Use CH mode B, C, D, F, G mode for S.BUS output and S.BUS2 input/output.

Telemetry Mode (FASSTest 12CH)
The R7308SB supports FASSTest 12CH telemetry. You can switch telemetry ON or OFF.
- Telemetry OFF: Turn on the receiver (transmitter OFF). Press SW once more to return to flashing orange. Press SW. Blinks ORANGE twice. Press and hold SW. Blinks ORANGE. Release SW. Solid ORANGE.
- Telemetry ON: Turn on the receiver (transmitter OFF). Press SW once more to return to flashing orange. Press SW. Blinks ORANGE twice. Press and hold SW. Blinks ORANGE. Release SW. Solid ORANGE.
After linking, the receiver will transmit telemetry data to the transmitter. The transmitter will display the telemetry of the main receiver. For a second-linked receiver, the transmitter will show 'Telemetry OFF' for the second link.
Modalità canale
L'R7308SB è in grado di modificare le assegnazioni dei canali come descritto nella tabella seguente. Ciò è particolarmente importante quando si utilizza il ricevitore in modalità doppio ricevitore. Consultare il manuale di istruzioni del trasmettitore per i dettagli completi sul funzionamento in modalità doppio ricevitore.

Manutenzione
- The R7308SB receiver should be protected from vibration by foam rubber, Velcro, or similar mounting methods.
- Protect from moisture and extreme temperatures.
- Controllare regolarmente tutti i collegamenti per verificarne la tenuta e l'eventuale presenza di segni di usura.
- Mantenere il ricevitore pulito e libero da polvere e detriti.
Risoluzione dei problemi
Stato di indicazione del LED
| Stato | LED COLLEGAMENTO |
|---|---|
| Nessuna ricezione del segnale | Rosso fisso |
| Ricevere segnali | Verde fisso |
| In attesa di collegamento | Start → Green/Red (1 second) |
| Errore irreversibile (EEPROM, ecc.) | Lampeggio alternato |
In Dual Rx Link Mode
| Stato | LED MODALITÀ |
|---|---|
| External receiver is not connected or not connected (S.BUS signal not received) | Rosso fisso |
| S.BUS signal received from external receiver (also received by external receiver) | Verde fisso |
Link Precautions
- Do not perform the linking procedure while the motor's main switch is ON or the engine is operating, as it may result in serious injury.
- When the linking is complete, please cycle the receiver power to ensure the receiver is properly linked to the transmitter.
- Se il ricevitore R7308SB è stato precedentemente collegato a un altro trasmettitore, assicurarsi che il trasmettitore non sia in funzione durante il collegamento del ricevitore al nuovo trasmettitore.
Suggerimenti per l'utente
- For simpler wiring, especially with complex setups, utilize the S.BUS2 system as it only requires one data cable to connect to compatible flight controllers like Microbeat, HC3X, or VBar.
- Prendi vantaggiotage of the telemetry features by connecting optional telemetry sensors to the S.BUS2 port. This allows direct display of critical data like power voltage on your remote control, enhancing flight safety and monitoring.
- Always ensure proper power supply through an ESC or independent BEC to prevent damage from reverse polarity.
