3. Tatūnga

3.1. Nga Whakaritenga Mana

The R3008SB receiver operates on a power requirement of 4.8-7.4V. Ensure your power source (e.g., battery pack, BEC) provides voltage within this range to prevent damage and ensure proper operation.

3.2. Herea te Kaiwhiwhi

To establish communication between the R3008SB receiver and your Futaba T-FHSS Air-2.4GHz transmitter, a binding procedure is required. Refer to your specific Futaba transmitter's instruction manual for detailed binding steps, as the process may vary slightly between transmitter models. Generally, this involves placing both the transmitter and receiver into bind mode.

3.3. Connecting Servos and Accessories

The R3008SB receiver offers two types of output ports:

• Standard PWM Output Ports (Channels 1-8): Connect your conventional analog or digital servos directly to these ports. Each port corresponds to a specific channel (e.g., Channel 1 for Aileron, Channel 2 for Elevator, etc.).
• S.BUS2 Port: This port allows for connection of S.BUS2 compatible servos and sensors, enabling a single wire connection for multiple devices. It also facilitates bi-directional communication for telemetry data.
• Voltage Port: He puka wahotage port is available for monitoring voltage from 0 to 70V DC. Connect appropriate sensors or power sources to this port for telemetry feedback.

Ensure all connections are secure and correctly oriented (signal, positive, negative) to prevent damage to the receiver or connected components.

4. Nga Tohutohu Whakahaere

4.1. Ngā Mahi Whakamātautau Waea

The R3008SB receiver supports telemetry, allowing real-time data from your model to be displayed on your compatible Futaba T-FHSS transmitter. This includes data from connected S.BUS2 sensors (e.g., battery voltage, temperature, RPM). Consult your transmitter's manual for instructions on setting up and displaying telemetry data.

4.2. Battery Failsafe Voltage Tatūnga

The Battery Failsafe (F/S) voltage can be set up directly through your transmitter. This feature allows you to define a minimum voltage threshold, below which the receiver will activate failsafe settings (e.g., throttle to idle) to protect your model. Refer to your transmitter's manual for detailed instructions on configuring this setting.

5. Tiaki

To ensure the longevity and reliable performance of your Futaba R3008SB receiver, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Kia maroke: Protect the receiver from moisture and humidity. Water ingress can cause irreparable damage.
• Aukati i nga Pawera Nui: Do not expose the receiver to excessively high or low temperatures.
• Te ma: Keep the receiver free from dust, dirt, and debris. Use a soft, dry brush or cloth for cleaning.
• Whakaeke Haumaru: Ensure the receiver is securely mounted within your model to prevent vibrations from affecting its performance or causing physical damage.
• Te Whakataunga Antenna: Properly route and secure the dual diversity antennas to maximize signal reception and minimize interference. Avoid bending them sharply or placing them near conductive materials.

6. Te Raru

If you encounter issues with your R3008SB receiver, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• Kore Hiko/Karekau LED: Tirohia nga hononga hiko me te whakarite i te voltage is within the 4.8-7.4V range. Verify battery charge.
• No Control/No Binding: Re-attempt the binding procedure as per your transmitter's manual. Ensure the transmitter is in T-FHSS Air mode. Check for signal interference.
• Intermittent Control/Telemetry Loss: Inspect antenna placement and ensure they are not obstructed or damaged. Check for loose connections. Verify the range of your system.
• Incorrect Servo Movement: Verify servo connections to the correct PWM ports. Check servo direction and travel settings on your transmitter.
• Telemetry Data Issues: Ensure S.BUS2 sensors are correctly connected and configured. Check transmitter settings for telemetry display.

If problems persist, consult the comprehensive manual for your Futaba T-FHSS transmitter or contact Futaba customer support.
