RADIOLINK T8FB (FHSS) INSTRUCTION MANUAL 8CH remote control system RADIOLINK ELETRONIC LIMITED Technical updates and additional programming examples available at: www. radiolink.
INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing Radiolink 2.4 GHz 8 channels remote control system -- T8FB . It can operate helicopter, fixed-wing, glider, aircraft models. Communication system adopts FHSS. Parameter setting designed applicable to both beginners and skilled person. In order to better use remote control equipment and ensure flight safety, please read the instructions carefully.
Note:About flying While you are getting ready to fly, if you place your transmitter on the ground ,be sure that the wind won’t tip it over. If it is knocked over, the throttle stick may be accidentally moved, causing the engine to speed up. Also, damage to your transmitter may occur. Other than 2.4GHz system: Before operating, be sure to extend the transmitter antenna to its full length, collapsed antenna will reduce your flying range and cause a loss of control.

Part 1 INTRODUCTION OF T8FB SYSTEM 1.
1.2 T8FB remote control system 1.2.1 Transmitter 1) One two-way switch, one three-way switch, two VR switches, four trimmers, two sticks. 2) Defaulted MODE2, SwB control CH5, VrB control CH6, SwA control CH7, VrA control CH8. 3) Defaulted low battery alarm voltage is 11.1V, can setting in the T8FB configure software. 1.2.2 Receiver: R8EH R8EH: 8 channel receiver support S-BUS, PPM and PWM signal at the same time. 8 channel receiver R8EH(signal type: PWM&S-BUS&PPM) R8EH Specification: 1.
Once the link is made, the ID code is stored in the receiver and no further linking is necessary unless the receiver is to be used with another transmitter. When you purchase another R8EH, this procedure is necessary; otherwise the receiver will not work. 1) Place the transmitter and the receiver close to each other within 1 meter. 2) Connect CH3(R8EH) to ESC. 3) Press and hold ID SET switch of the receiver one second, now the indicator LED will starting blinking.
to extend the length. Avoid plugging multiple extensions together to obtain your desired length. If the distance is greater than 50cm or high current draw servos are being used, use heavy servo extensions. • Receiver Vibration and Waterproofing: the receiver contains precision electronic part.Be sure to avoid vibration,shock,and temperature extremes.For protection, wrap the receiver in foam rubber or other vibration-absorbing materials.
of the switch in both directions. •When install the switch harness to the helicopter, please use the switch cover. Generally sandwich the frame between the switch and switch cover and securely tighten the screws. Different models might require different installations. If so, please follow the model’s instruction manual.
Part 2 Firmware Upgrade or Model Type Change 1. Open file “T8FB”. 2. Choose COM, and click “Connect” and then turn on T8FB in 1 second.
3. “Disconnect” will change to “Connected” and the color of word will from red to green if connect successful.
4. Choose “APROM” and then choose the firmware you need, for example, firmware for multicoptor.
5. Click “Start”, the progress bar will turn to green, upgrade successful if remind “PASS”.
Part 3 Parameter Configuration 2.1 Preparation 1. Install the drive for the parameter configuration software. Open T8FB parameter configuration software.
2. Choose Port Number(T8FB connection COM will automatic identified when connect to computer), setting baud rate: 115200, 8-1-None(8 data bits,1 stop bit,no parity check),click “CONNECT”.(P3) (P3) 2.2 Software description “READ”: Computer will read data from transmitter and show on the computer when click “READ”(red and green LED will quick flashing when reading). “LOAD”: Load configured TXT files. “UPDATE”: Write down the new data you want and then click “UPDATE” to change the defaulted parameter.
you try to keep all of the SUB-TRIM values as small as possible. Otherwise, when the SUB-TRIM are large values, the servo's range of travel is restricted on one side. The recommended procedure is as follows: • Measure and record the desired surface position; • Zero out both the trims (TRIM RESET menu) and the SUB-TRIM (this menu); • Mount servo arms and linkages so that the control surface’s neutral is as correct as possible; •use a small amount of SUB-TRIM to make fine corrections.
“AUX-CH”: Defines the relationship between the transmitter controls and the receiver output for channels 5-8. “TX-ALARM”: Setting transmitter alarm voltage(defaulted 11.1 V). “STK-MODE”: Change the mapping relation among sticks(MODE1 means throttle is the right stick; MODE2 means throttle is the left stick).
