WARNING
Do not perform the linking procedure while the motor's main wire con-
nected or the engine is operating as it may result in serious injury.
When the linking is complete, please cycle the receiver power and en-
sure the receiver is properly linked to the transmitter.
Please power up your system in this order. Transmitter first, followed
by the receiver.

Link to the transmitter
(DV\ /LQN ,' D66$LU UHFHLYHUV WR OLQN WR FRPSDWLEOH
transmitter without pressing the link button on the receiver.
1
Bring the transmitter and the receiver close to each other,
within 20 inches (half meter).
2
Turn on the transmitter. Place the transmitter into the receiver
linking mode.
3
Turn on the receiver.
4
The receiver will wait for the linking process to begin for 3
seconds. Following that it will return to the normal operation
mode.
5
When the LED of the receiver changes from blinking red to
solid green, linking is completed.
(A link waiting state is ended in 3 second.)
• Refer to the transmitters operation manual for complete details on how to place the
transmitter into the linking mode.
• If there are many T-FHSS Air systems turned on in close proximity, your receiver
might have difficulty establishing a link to your transmitter. This is a rare occurrence.
However, should another T-FHSS Air transmitter/receiver be linking at the same
time, your receiver could link to the wrong transmitter. This is very dangerous if you
do not notice this situation. In order to avoid the problem,we strongly recommend
you to double check whether your receiver is really under control by your
transmitter.
• If the System Type of the transmitter is changed, the receiver will need to be re-
linked to the transmitter.
Channel Modes
The R3008SB is capable of changing its channel allocations as described
in the table below.
1
Turn on the receiver. (At this moment, the transmitter should
be off.) Then,
LED
blinks RED in about 3 seconds. Next, wait
until it becomes solid RED.
2
Press and hold the
Mode switch
more than 5 seconds.
3
Release the button when the
LED
blinks RED and GREEN
simultaneously.
4
The receiver is now in the "Operation CH Set" mode. At this
moment, the
LED
indicates current set status through flashing
a pattern that corresponds to the CH mode.

more than 2 seconds at the desired CH mode.
7
Release the button when the

After confirming the operation CH mode is changed, turn off
and back on the receiver power.

If the R3008SB receiver was previously linked to another transmitter,
make sure that transmitter is not operating while linking the receiver to
the new transmitter.

WARNING
Turn on the power in transmitter
→
receiver order. In addition, always check the operation of all the servos before flight.
Do not insert or remove the servo connector while the receiver power is ON.
Since the S.BUS servo switches the operation mode automatically according to the type of signal (S.BUS signal/PWM signal) from the receiver, if the connector is inserted
or removed while the power is ON, an S.BUS connected servo will be erroneously recognized and may stop.

What is S.BUS?
Unlike conventional radio control systems, the
S.BUS
system uses data
communication to transmit control signals from a receiver to a servo,
gyro, or other
S.BUS
compatible device. This data includes commands
such as “move the channel 3 servo to 15 degrees, move the channel 5

only those commands for their own set channel. For this reason, it can
be used by connecting multiple servos to the same signal line.

serial interface or the programming software resident in the
T10J
transmitter.
*
Can also be used together with conventional servos. However, conventional ser-
vos cannot be used by the

*
When using servos with a remote battery pack, use
S.BUS
Hub with Cable (2-
way/remote battery pack use).
Please refer to the instruction manual of
S.BUS
Hub with Cable (2-way/remote
battery pack use) for the connection method.
