R7006SB FASSTest-2.4GHz Bidirectional Communication System / FASST(Multi-ch,7ch) -2.4GHzS.BUS2 / S.BUS Port and 6 Channels for Conventional System Receiver

Thank you for purchasing a Futaba R7006SB FASSTest-2.4GHz compatible receiver. The R7006SB receiver features bi-directional communication with a FASSTest Futaba transmitter using the S.BUS2 port. Using the S.BUS2 port an impressive array of telemetry sensors may be utilized. It also includes both standard PWM output ports (1-6ch) and S.BUS output ports. The R7006SB can also be switched the FASST(Multi-ch/7-ch) System.

● Applicable systems: Futaba FASSTest-2.4GHz / FASST (Multi-ch,7ch) -2.4GHz system transmitter

Usage precaution

•Analog servos cannot be used with the R7006SB in the FASSTest 12CH / FASST High-speed mode.

WARNING

Changes or modification not especially approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’ s authority to operate the equipment.

The R7006SB receiver should be protected from vibration by foam rubber,Velcro,orsimilarmountingmethods. Protectfrommoisture.

■ The R7006SB has two antennas. In order to maximize signal reception and promote safe modeling Futaba has adopted a diversity antenna system. This allows the receiver to obtain RF signals on both antennas and fly problem-free.

Antenna installation for carbon fuselage

You must leave 30mm at the tip of the antenna fully exposed. The exposed antenna should be secured so that it cannot move around or backinsideofyouraircraft.

Be careful of connector insertion

Don'tconnectanS.BUSservo/gyrotoS.BUS2connector.

Link precaution

Do not perform the linking procedure while the motor's main power connectedortheengineisoperatingasitmayresultinseriousinjury.

When the linking is complete, please cycle the receiver power and ensurethereceiverisproperlylinkedtothetransmitter.

Please power up your system in this order. Transmitter first, followed bythereceiver.

*When on "FASST-7ch" mode, the fail safe function can be set for 3-channel only.

*Be sure that when using ESCs regulated output the capacity of the ESC must meet your usage condition.

*Never use dry batteries for the power supply of the R7006SB as they may cause difficulties.
