What is S.BUS?
Different from conventional radio control systems the S.BUS
system uses data communication to transmit control signals
from a receiver to a servo, gyro, or other S.BUS compatible
device. This data includes commands such as “move the
channel 3 servo to 15 degrees, move the channel 5 servo to
30 degrees” to multiple devices. The S.BUS devices execute
only those commands for their own set channel. For this
reason, it can be used by connecting multiple servos to the
same signal line.

Can also be used together with conventional servos. However, conventional servos cannot be used by the S.BUS output.
*
When using servos with a remote battery pack, use S.BUS Hub with Cable (2-way/remote battery pack use).
Please refer to the instruction manual of S.BUS Hub with Cable (2-way/remote battery pack use) for the connection method.

(LED
Status)
Please check the operation mode by observing the LED when
turning on the receiver. If possible there's no FASST transmitter
turned on around you in order to make rmer check.
When turn on the receiver, the LED will be;
•Redwhenon"Normalmode"
•Green and Red (makesOrange) when on "High Speed mode".
(Aftertwo(2)seconds,changetoRed.)
If there are some FASST transmitter turned on around the
receiver, the LED may show the above status for a brief
moment then changed to the status indication as shown in the
"LED indication" table.
