Fail Safe - FUTABA T8J-2.4G Instruction Manual

FailSafe (loss of clean signal and low receiver battery) submenu ( F/S ): sets responses in case of loss of signal or low Rx
battery.
FailSafe ( F/S ): instructs a 2.4G receiver what to do in the event radio interference is received.
F/S setting is used in certain competitions to prevent the aircraft from flying away and doing potential damage
elsewhere. Conversely, the F/S
