ESC ( motor controller) that supplies power
from the drive battery (BEC- Battery Eliminator
Circuit) to the receiver cannot be used.
O r d i n a r y s w i t c h e s
(SSW-J, HSW-J, HSW-L,
etc.) cannot be used.
Usage precaution
• Analog ser vos cannot be used with the R7018SB in the
FASSTest 12CH mode.
• When the FASST Multi-ch High-speed Mode is used, analog
servos cannot be used at the CH1
〜
6 outputs for convention
systems. However, in other than the FASSTest 12CH mode,
analog servos can be used at CH7
〜
16, DG1 and DG2 at
any time.
• Don't connect to Extra Voltage Telemetry Port before turning
on a receiver.
WARNING
Changes or modification not especially approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the userʼ s authority to
operate the equipment.
When the model is not being used, always remove or
disconnect the battery.
■
When the switch is off, a slight amount of current still flows. Unless the
switch and battery are disconnected, the battery will be damaged from
excessive discharge.
The R7018SB receiver should be protected from vibration by
foam rubber, Velcro, or similar mounting methods. Protect from
moisture.
Keep away from conductive materials to avoid short circuits.
When only one battery is connected, always insulate the
unused connector.
Antenna installation precaution
Do not cut or bundle the receiver antenna wire.
Do not bend the coaxial cable. It causes damage.
The antennas must be mounted in such a way to assure they
are strain relieved.
Keep the antenna as far away from the motor, ESC and other
noise sources as you possibly can.
Be sure that the two antennas are placed at 90 degrees to each
other.

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 back inside of your aircraft.
Be careful of connector insertion
Don't connect an S.BUS servo / gyro to S.BUS2 connector.
Do not connect the power supply battery to other than the
power supply connector.
■
There is the danger of ignition, explosion, or burning.
Link precaution
Do not perform the linking procedure while the motor's main
power connected or the engine is operating as it may result in
serious injury.
When the linking is complete, please cycle the receiver power
and ensure the receiver is properly linked to the transmitter.
Please power up your system in this order. Transmitter first,
followed by the receiver.
If the R7018SB receiver was previously linked to another
transmitter, make sure that transmitter is not operating while
linking the receiver to the new transmitter.

Thank you for purchasing a Futaba
R7018SB
FASSTest-2.4GHz
compatible receiver.
The
R7018SB
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 and
S.BUS
output ports.
