Digital proportional radio control system 2. Introduction The i8 is an 8-channel 2.4GHz AFHDS 2A digital proportional R/C system. It is compatible with multirotors, helicopters, fixed-ring, and gliders. 2.1 System Features The AFHDS 2A (Automatic Frequency Hopping Digital System Second Generation) developed and patented by FLYSKY is specially developed for all radio control models.
2.2 Transmitter Overview 2.2.1 Transmitter Antenna Precautions: For best signal quality, make sure that the antenna is at about a 90 degree angle to the model. Do not □ point the antenna directly at the receiver. Never grip the transmitter antenna when operating a model. It significantly degrades the RF signal □...
Digital proportional radio control system 2.2.2 Sticks There are two sticks on the transmitter and two preset modes for the functions of the sticks. You can switch the sticks to suit your operation habit. For details, refer to section 4.4 Switching the Stick Modes . You can also loose or tighten the lever head to adjust the length of the stick.
2.2.5 Knob Position Indicator LEDs The knob position indicator LEDs are used to indicate the currently position of the channel 5 6 position knob, each indicator corresponds to a flight mode. When the knob changes position, the corresponding indicator lights up. 2.2.6 Trims There are 4 trims affecting stick functionality, one for rudder (Channel 4), elevator (Channel 2), throttle (Channel 3) and ailerons (Channel 1).

Digital proportional radio control system 4. Operation Instruction After setting up, follow the instructions below to operate the system. 4.1 Power On Follow the steps below to turn on the system: Check the system and make sure that: ▫ The battery is fully charged and installed properly. ▫...
4.4 Switching the Stick Modes There are two sticks on the transmitter and two preset modes for the functions of the sticks. Usually the stick with the self centring feature on both axis will be mapped to the Elevator, while the other to the Throttle.
Digital proportional radio control system 4.5 Calibrating the Sticks and Knobs After switching the stick modes, it is required to calibrate the sticks and knobs on the transmitter. You should also perform a calibration after switching sticks or if the transmitter sticks/knobs are not working accurately.
4.9 Reversing Channels You can reverse the direction of channels 1, 2, 3 or 4 in relation to the sticks. For example, if a servo is mounted upside down in order to fit inside a model, when the corresponding stick is moved, the servo will move in the oppisite direction.
