are not using the S. Bus system. Something else to note is
that some of the S. Bus servos and receivers are HV, or High
Voltage, meaning that you could run a straight 2S LiPo for
your receiver battery.
Your system is not limited to programming only through the
SBC-1 channel changing tool and your transmitter. Utilizing the

S.Bus Radio Equipment Recommendations
The S.Bus Setup will make the radio installation easier and
