Arkbird 433UHF Quick Start Manual

Product Introduction:

ARKBIRD-433UHF is a 10-channel module designed for long-distance flight:

1. The advanced code division frequency hopping system (FHSS) produces the only way of frequency

hopping sequence according to the only ID code of each transmitter, and receives it by different ID

addresses with fast frequency hopping at full frequency;

2. Adjustable power (100mw-1400mw);

3. Both Tuner mode and Repeater station mode are optional, plug and play and automatically identify.

Repeater mode can be compatible with all radio TXs;

4. No welding setup, wires are connected easily;

5. Receiver 10-channel Servo output interface, PPM output, 3.3V RSSI output interface, and head sensor

interface;

6. Rapid response of 20ms, without delay.

With Arkbird OSD, it has the following functions:

7. It can be configured to single-wire PPM&RSSI output, three-wire transmission of 10-channel signal

and RSSI, with very simple wire connecting;

firmware)

8. The original channel 1-4 input ports on Arkbird OSD; automatically become output ports which will

output channel 7-10 of the radio TX control;

9. Output channel 9 and 10 can be configured to steering A Servo

or negative, and the amount of stability augmentation can be adjusted.

Transmitter: working voltage: 2S-3S（7～12.6V）

Receiver:

working voltage: 4～12V

Attention:

Read the instructions carefully before using, pay attention to details and wire connection, and avoid

the missing of important messages, which may become a hidden danger for the flight.

Page 3 5V (in the middle row) using jumper cap. Then channel 7 will output composite PPM signal. It can be connected to Arkbird OSD ’s AR port, and make single-wire transfer of the 10 channels and RSSI value.
Page 4 Check if the radio TX is set to PPM mode, (or 2.4G/72M receiver is working and able to control a servo). If you use the Arkbird OSD single wire transmission, enter the OSD menu; check the first row, to see whether it is upgraded to latest firmware (above V3.1020).
Page 5 Be sure to read the Safety precautions of Arkbird equipment carefully: 1. The Arkbird equipment can only be used for small aircraft model entertainment. Please do not install it in the camera plane which may fly over the crowds. Fly should be done in open field, and the loss of people and property caused by any accident should be prevented.
