7 RX SET This section introduces details functions relate to receiver and their use. 7.1 Bind Set This function is used to put the transmitter into the binding state to bind with the receiver. For specific binding guidelines, see section "4.2 Bind". 7.2 Steering Force This function is used to adjust the amount of steering force when the receiver servo is steered.
7.4 RX Interface Protocol This function is used to set the receiver output mode. Classic Version Receiver Interface Protocol When the adapted receiver is FGr4, FGr4S, FGr4P, FTr4, FTr10 and FTr16S, [Output] can be set to PWM or PPM. [Serial Protocol] can be set to i-BUS or S.BUS (please refer to [7.8 i-BUS Setting] for specific i-BUS setting).
7.5 Failsafe The Failsafe function can be set in the following three ways: • Set to disable the signal output of i-BUS-out and PPM protocol interfaces in case of out-of-control, i.e., no output at i-BUS-out & PPM interfaces in case of losing control.
Page 53
Setting A Separate Channel Used to set the output signal states of channels respectively: Free means that there is no output in case of out-of-control; Hold means the last channel value is kept in case of out-of-control; Fixed Value means that you can set the failsafe output value by moving the control, then the value set will output in case of out-of-control.
7.6 Servos Frequency This function is used to select the frequency of channel data PWM signals. The function includes analog servo (95 Hz), digital servo (380 Hz), and custom frequency. You can select or set the correct output frequency value according to the servo used. By default, the system adopts the digital servo.

For details, see 6.23 i-BUS2 section. 7.8 i-BUS Setup This function is used to set up the i-BUS expansion module. The i-BUS function is mainly used for servo expansion. If a cable is too short or the number of servos exceeds the outputs for the receiver, the i-BUS serial bus receiver provides a convenient option for expansion.
7.9 Config PWM Converter This function allows you to configure the corresponding receiver to a PWM converter. After the setting is successful, the receiver is used as a PWM converter, and the interfaces output PWM signals. Note: This function is not available for all receivers. For the classic receiver, only the FGr4 and FTr10 receivers are availabe.
7.10 RSSI Output Setup Through this function, you can select a channel to output the signal strength value of the receiver. After the function is enabled, the selected channel does not perform the output of transmitter's corresponding channel function, but outputs the receiver's signal strength value.
7.12 Range Test This function is used to test whether wireless communication between the transmitter and the receiver is normal. As the actual remote control distance between transmitter and receiver is far, it is hard to test whether the radio frequency is normal by controlling a distance of several hundred meters between the transmitter and receiver in practice.
Touch [Update Receiver]: • Some receivers such as GMR and INr4 need to be updated with "Flysky Assistant". If the transmitter has successfully coded and the connection is established, if the receiver is the latest version, a pop-up prompt will appear [The current version is the new version, no upgrade is required! ].
