Receiver nomenclature Before using the receiver, be sure to read the precautions listed in the following pages. Receiver R7008SB Danger Don't connect a connector, as shown in a # E *It will short-circuit, if it connected in this way. A short circuit across the battery terminals may cause abnormal Warning S.BUS2 connectors Don't connect an S.BUS servo / gyro to S.BUS2 connector.
Danger Don't touch wiring. * There is a danger of receiving an electric shock. Do not short-circuit the battery terminals. * A short circuit across the battery terminals may cause Please double check your polarity ( ＋ and − ) when hooking up your connectors. * If ＋ and − of wiring are mistaken, it will damage, ignite and explode.

SUB-TRIM " $ The Sub-Trim function is used to set the servo neutral position, and may be used to make fine adjustments to the control surface after linkages and pushrods are hooked up. When you begin to set up a model, be sure that the digital trims are set to their center position.
REVERSE 8 Servo Reverse changes the direction of an individual servo’s response to a control input. For CCPM helicopters, be sure to read the section on Swash AFR before reversing any servos. With CCPM helicopters, always complete your servo reversing prior to any other programming.
FAIL SAFE " $ $ ! $ The Failsafe function may be used to set up positions that the servos move to in the case of radio interference. You may set either of two positions for each channel: Hold, where the servo maintains its last commanded position, or Failsafe, where each servo moves to a predetermined position. You may choose either mode for each channel.
END POINT " ! $ The End Point function adjusts the left and right servo throws, generates differential throws, and will correct improper linkage settings. The travel rate can be varied from 0% to 140% in each direction on channels 1 to 12(FASSTest 12CH mode). Also, the limit point where servo throw stops may be varied from 0% to 155%.
SERVO SPEED " $ The speed of the servo from 1CH to 12CH of operation can be set up. It can adjust to 0-27.
