5)    Walk away from the model while simultaneously operating the controls on the transmitter, confirming that all 

controls operate normally to a distance of at least 30 meters (~30 yds). 

6)    Press the F/S button of the transmitter module for 1S-4S to exit range check mode, RED LED will be back on, 

indicating normal operation is back. 

2.3  Setting failsafe 

Failsafe is a useful feature in which all controls move to a preset position whenever the control signal is lost for a 

period of time. D8R-II plus supports failsafe function for all channels.   

Follow the steps below to set failsafe positions for each channel: 

1)    Bind the receiver first and turn on both the transmitter and the receiver; 

2)    Move the controls to the desired failsafe position for all channels; 

3)    Press briefly the F/S button on the receiver (less than 1 second). 

The transmitter module will make a long “beep”, 

indicating the failsafe position has been set in the receiver.

   

To disable the failsafe function, re-bind the receiver.

2.5    Pins definition for side ports 

It should be noted that 3.3V only has a limited driving current (1~10mA), it should not be used for driving a MPU. 

2.5.1

 Two external analog telemetry ports (A1&A2) and one digital data-stream port (Rx).

Tx X  X 

Rx A2 A1 

Rx: input to receiver, RS232 level, connect with FrSky sensor hub 

A2 (external): max voltage 3.3V, division ratio 1:1 

A1 (external): max voltage 3.3V, division ratio 1:1 

 

2.5.2 When side port pins of A1 and X are connected by the jumper, A1 will change from external analog 

telemetry port to internal built-in battery voltage sensor.

3.  How to switch between two PPM modes 

Turn the transmitter off, connect the battery to the receiver, press the F/S button of the receiver for 6 seconds and 

then release. The red LED will flash fast in HS mode and slowly in FS mode. 

The mode alternates each time this procedure is done. 

Warning: HS mode is only applied for high-speed digital servos. 

Other servos should select FS mode, otherwise servos will get hot and may burn out.
