Fail-safe setting:
Attention: Fail-safe setting must be set after mode selection.
There are two ways to set the Failsafe setting on the R7FA FASST Compatible Receiver;
1. TX-failsafe feature: This method is to set failsafe on the FASST transmitter and has
priority (works on channel 3 only under FASST 7ch mode or on multiple-channels under
FASST multi-channel mode) while the receiver is working on, just like the FUTABA
receivers.
2. RX-failsafe feature: Turn on FASST transmitter and turn on the R7FA Receiver, put all the
sticks and switches to where give the control inputs you want if the receiver looses signal
and Press the F/S button down for about 5 - 6 seconds while the Green LED light solid (Rx
in normal operation), then release the button. You will see the Red LED will flash for
about 4 - 5 seconds. (Note: The Red LED will FLASH high speed to indicate the RX-failsafe
is turned on OR FLASH low speed to indicate the RX-failsafe is turned off). If you press
the F/S button a second time while the Red LED is flashing, the receiver will change its
RX-failsafe status (on / off),then the LED will return to Green solid again. If you not press
the F/S button .Nothing will be changed and the LED will return to Green solid again. If
you want to cancel the RX-failsafe feature (not just turn it off), you can do it by binding
the receiver again.
Note: If you do not set a failsafe setting, the receiver will hold all controls at the position of the
last command received before signal was lost. When RX-failsafe is turned on, the receiver will
initiate the RX-failsafe settings after losing signal for over 1 second, the receiver will hold the last
received positions until the failsafe takes over. When the RX-failsafe and TX-failsafe feature are
both turned on, the receiver will use the TX-failsafe command.
We highly recommend you set failsafe feature while flying your models. An example of a
useful Failsafe setting would be to shut down the model’s throttle, so that it does not fly or drive
away uncontrolled.
