The Futaba R7014SB is a FASSTest-2.4GHz compatible receiver designed for bidirectional communication with FASSTest Futaba transmitters. It supports an impressive array of telemetry sensors through its S.BUS2 port and also features standard PWM output ports and S.BUS output ports. The R7014SB can also be switched to the FASST-Multi-ch System.

Function Description

The R7014SB receiver operates on a 2.4GHz system, offering both FASSTest (bidirectional communication) and FASST (multi-channel) modes. In FASSTest mode, it enables telemetry data transmission from connected S.BUS2 sensors back to the transmitter, providing real-time information. The receiver features dual antenna diversity to maximize signal reception and enhance safety by allowing it to obtain RF signals from both antennas. It supports 12 conventional channels, plus two digital channels (DG1, DG2), and integrates S.BUS and S.BUS2 ports for advanced servo and sensor connectivity. The receiver's power requirement ranges from 3.7V to 7.4V, with a voltage range of 3.5V to 8.4V. An Extra Voltage port is available for monitoring external battery voltage (0V-70V DC).

Usage Features

System Compatibility: The R7014SB is compatible with Futaba FASSTest-2.4GHz and FASST-Multi-ch system transmitters.
Mode Switching: The receiver can be switched between FASSTest and FASST modes.
- FASSTest/FASST Mode Change: To change between FASSTest, FASST Multi-ch Normal, and FASST Multi-ch High-speed modes, turn on the receiver (transmitter OFF), press and hold the Link/Mode button for at least 5 seconds until the link LED blinks green/red. Release the button, then press it repeatedly to cycle through modes. Once the desired mode is reached, press and hold the button for more than 2 seconds to lock it in. After changing, cycle the receiver's power.
- S.BUS/DG2 Port Change: To change the default S.BUS port to DG2, turn on the receiver (transmitter OFF), press and hold the Link/Mode button for at least 15 seconds until the link LED blinks red. Release the button, then press it repeatedly to cycle between S.BUS and DG2. Once the desired mode is reached, press and hold the button for more than 2 seconds to lock it in. After changing, cycle the receiver's power.
Linking to Transmitter (FASSTest): Bring the transmitter and receiver within 20 inches. Turn on the transmitter and place it in linking mode. Turn on the receiver. The receiver will wait for 2 seconds before attempting to link. A solid green link LED indicates successful linking. If the system type on the transmitter is changed, the receiver must be re-linked.
Linking to Transmitter (FASST): Bring the transmitter and receiver within 20 inches. Turn on both the transmitter and receiver. Perform the link operation using the Link/Mode switch.
Telemetry: In FASSTest mode, multiple optional telemetry sensors can be connected to the S.BUS2 port, and their data is displayed on the transmitter. An optional external voltage input cable (CA-RVIN-700) can be used with the Extra Voltage port to display battery voltage.
TMA-1 Linking (FASSTest only): To use a TMA-1 telemetry adapter, first switch the receiver to FASSTest system and link it to the transmitter. Turn off power, then turn on receiver power (transmitter off). Press the Link/Mode switch for at least 10 seconds until the link LED blinks green. The receiver enters TMA-1 linked mode, and the LED rapidly blinks red and green. Press the TMA-1 link switch until its LED starts to blink and then changes from red to green, indicating successful linking.
Multi Prop Mode (FASST only): To use the MPDX-1 Multi Prop Decoder, switch the receiver to FASST system (Normal or High-speed). Turn on receiver power (transmitter off). Press the Link/Mode switch for at least 10 seconds until the link LED blinks green. The receiver enters multi prop mode. Press the switch repeatedly to cycle through modes (OFF/ON). Once the desired mode is reached, press and hold the switch for at least 2 seconds until the link LED rapidly blinks red and green. Cycle the power.
LED Indications:
- FASSTest Mode LED: Green Solid for receiving signals, Off for no signal/waiting for link.
- Link LED: Red Solid for no signal/waiting for link, Green Solid for receiving signals, Green Blink for receiving signals but ID unmatched, Red Blink for waiting for link, Alternate Blink for unrecoverable error.
Connector Usage: The receiver power supply can be connected to any port. The direction of connectors for the bottom 3 ports is different by 90 degrees.

Maintenance Features

Vibration Protection: The R7014SB receiver should be protected from vibration using foam rubber, Velcro, or similar mounting methods.
Moisture Protection: Always protect the receiver from moisture.
Antenna Installation:
- Do not cut or bundle the receiver antenna wire.
- Do not bend the coaxial cable, as this can cause damage.
- Mount antennas to ensure they are strain-relieved.
- Keep antennas as far away as possible from the motor, ESC, and other noise sources.
- Ensure the two antennas are placed at 90 degrees to each other for optimal signal reception.
Carbon Fuselage Antenna Installation: For carbon fuselages, leave at least 30mm of the antenna tip fully exposed. Secure the exposed antenna to prevent it from moving or retracting inside the aircraft.
Connector Safety:
- Do not connect an S.BUS servo/gyro to the S.BUS2 connector.
- Do not connect the power supply battery to any port other than the designated power supply connector to avoid ignition, explosion, or burning.
Linking Safety:
- Do not perform linking procedures while the motor's main power is connected or the engine is operating to prevent serious injury.
- After linking, cycle the receiver power to ensure proper linkage.
- Always power up the system in this order: transmitter first, then receiver.
- If the R7014SB was previously linked to another transmitter, ensure that the old transmitter is not operating while linking to a new transmitter.
- In environments with many FASSTest systems, double-check that your receiver is linked to your specific transmitter to avoid linking to the wrong one.
