3. Servo Speed Setting
When FHSS V2 protocol is selected in RC8X, servo Speed will appear on the screen (as shown below).
Servo Speed setting method:
(1) Transmitter: It is necessary to update the RC8X firmware to V1.1.5 or above, and then select FHSS
V2 protocol to display this option. Servo speed can be selected from 14ms, 4ms, and 3ms. The
default servo speed is 14ms (analog servo speed), 4ms and 3ms (digital servo speed).
(2) Receiver: If you are using a digital servo, you need to choose a servo speed of 4ms or 3ms. Please
confirm whether the receiver you are using supports digital servo. Currently, R8FG V2.1 and R8FG
with a factory date of 2023/4/26 and later support digital servo. Previous versions of R8FG, such as
R8FG V1.0, does not support digital servos. Even if 4ms or 3ms is selected when using it, the
default servo speed is 14ms.
(3) Status indication: When switching the servo speed, the green LED light of the receiver will flash
twice, which means that the switching of the servo speed is successful; if the green LED of the
receiver does not flash when switching the servo speed of the servo, it means that the switching of
the servo speed of the servo is unsuccessful or the current receiver does not support digital servos.
4. Binding
Each receiver has an individual ID code and must bind with transmitter before using. When the binding is
done, the ID code will be stored in the transmitter and there’s no need to rebind. Therefore, when a new
R8FG is purchased, binding needs to be done in order to work with transmitter.
Binding steps:
(1) Select the correct receiver protocol in RC8X (please refer to
Chapter 2. Receiver Protocol Selection
)
Note: If you are using a transmitter other than RC8X, such as RC6GS, RC4GS, etc., go to step 2
directly.
(2) Put the transmitter and the receiver close to each other (about 60 centimeters).
(3) Turn on both the transmitter and the receiver, and then the LED of R8FG will start flashing slowly.
(4) There is a black binding button (ID SET) on the side of the receiver. Press the button for more than 1
second and release, the LED will flash quickly, indicating the binding process is ongoing.
(5) When the LED stops flashing and is always on, binding is complete
and there will be a signal tower shown on top of the IPS screen of the
transmitter(As shown on the right). If not successful, the LED will
keep flashing slowly to notify, repeat the above steps.
