Can you use normal servos with this RX. One above has different pin set up to one in the file section? Also will it accept 3 pin servo wire or only 2? Thanks
 Marc Volovic 65 points
There is no 2-wire servo. The connectors in this receiver are horizontal.

Would this suit the Versus DLG connected with a Futaba T8FG?
 Marc Volovic 65 points
I lack experience with DLG models, but assuming you have enough channels - 2 channels for ailerons, one for rudder and one for elevator - yes, this will work with a DLG. It will of course work with a Futaba 8FG.
Clay  3 points - 11/29/2012
 
Would I just use the channel 4 spot to connect my CC BEC? I have a Futaba 3PM-X so it only uses 3 channels. Will connecting the BEC be okay??

This would be for the FrSky TFR4B 2.4Ghz 4CH Surface/Air Receiver FAAST Compatible. :)

*Can it bind with my 6EX 2.4g?..if yes any other setting should i apply...? *What is the difference between this rx and TFR4B...? Plan to use it for my DLG glider..thanks!
 hazril_hanzar 8 points
Correction...i mean diff with TFR4....my bad
 Vojc 5 points
The 4 and 4B are identical, except the 4 has a plastic casing and pins that come out the top. 4B has a heavyweight paper wrap and the pins come out of the side.
 NumnutChriS 472 points
yes, and no settings except note the different bind procedures between Futaba vs FrSky FASST RXes - First press FS/Bind on FrSky, then apply power to the Rx to bind.

I bought the reciever and I would like to know if it has any of the telemetry features the others have.
 Marc Volovic 65 points
No. FASST receivers and clones do NOT have telemetry.

Hello no this is a normal receiver with 4 ch. No telemetry.

una domanda a imeestes:può* questo tfr4b legare con futaba 3GR invece rx originale r603ff? grazie ciao
 Gary 2979 points
The Futaba 3GR is a FASST system so should be compatible.

Yes - it will

Can someone explain the following application to me from the description:

"CPPM and RSSI (PWM) output - If CH3 and CH4 are connected by a jumper, CH1 will output CPPM for CH1~CH8, and CH2 will output RSSI (PWM)."

Norm


 __trev 432 points
sounds like a mode for linking two together somehow for more channels
 sdriessens 19 points

 Big Ern 63 points
CPPM output lets you run all the channels 1-8 on one wire to a flight control board. The RSSI output lets people flying FPV see what their signal strenth is. (RSSI = Received signal strength indication)

Hi will this receiver work with FrSKY ACCST ? I have the FrSKY ACCST transmitter module for my JR - and need a small park flyer receiver. Would this work?
 DrEvil 129 points
No, this one is compatible with the Futaba FASST system.
 sarven 42 points
Hi, Unfortunately this is the Futaba FASST compatible version from FrSky. This is not compatible with ACCST. A tip for you; "TF" coded products are FASST compatible receivers. ;) If 4 channel is enough for you, you should buy this receiver : www.link other Frsky receivers look at Transmitter systems section>2.4 frsky Hope it might help you. regards.

hi i am using this receiver with 3xhxt 500 and a futaba 6ex. i have extremly servo jitter. what can i do? thx.
 Colin Osborne 4 points
Stephan, try switching off the Tx failsafe function. This may clear your servo jitter.
 Nacce 42 points
Or it is set on high speed mode? That makes often normal servos jitter,
 sarven 42 points
Actually the cause of this problem is the failsafe function of the transmitter. Not the receiver. You should deactive the failsafe function from your transmitter. If you want to program a failsafe funtion you should do that over your receiver. This will certainly solve your jitter problem, beleive me:)Many of my friends had the same problem and I solved them.

Futaba 4pks has enabled receiver?

Where do you plug in the rx battery? if you use on of the channels for the battery then it is only a 3 channel receiver enless you are using an esc to power the receiver.
 Tokarev 5 points
You can plug rx battery in any channel with this Y-connector www.link
 Robert 3 points
the link you posted does not work
 roberted5 104 points
Type "PRODUCT ID: AM-3001-15" in the search and it will show you a y-connector.
 Straight Up 743 points
Robert, what the guys above are trying to show you is the use of a simple Y-lead. The battery power doesn't have to go into its own port - it can share it with a servo!

No, you cannot use this rx with an Hitec Aurora. The FrSky TF-range of receivers are only compatible with Futaba FASST transmitters.

Hi tan, Yes, it is "FASST" compatible. Presuming that of course your radio is a Futaba 2.4GHz.

 Ujjwaana 162 points
Yes Tan, this Rx is compatible to most of Futaba FASST Radios starting 6EX, T7C, 8FG, 9CA, 10CH, 12FG, 14MZ etc...I have been using Frsky TFR Rx for the past 1.5 years and been totally satisfied with them on Electic planes.
 BrianB192 1293 points
they Are the best ,price /to Quality ,,set according to the Needs ,As all,Fly sky ,Is Best ,agreed ,,
 coptor 35 points
Not the best price compared to it's 6/7 ch air equivalent. It's silly to pay same price/more when you don't want/need the surface ability. Frsky need to separate air/surface and price accordingly. I'll stick to the TFR7
 JohnH 310 points
FrSky themselves do not differentiate Air/Surface, (unlike $pektrum where they are different). Basically use the Rx for whatever you wish. Also, some will find the 4.6gram 4ch worth the weight saving on a small light model, (which likely only needs 3 or 4 channels). Guess just be thankful that FrSky makes EXCELLENT receivers to allow huge cost saving as against "Futaba" brand.
 BrianB192 1293 points
separate Surface to Air !! ,,What do want to go Backwards ,,Ok ,, the Name ,,dont mean surface to Air for Nothing , If you go Close to Range ,,loosing a of the set stereo ,trans,twin makes a nice Beep when you loose 1 ,of the 2 ,duel ,Transmissions , that's All i K noticed , being good ,, ,Yes,we Like them the way they are ,,.
 Bob4432 32 points
*coptor - you do not understand the full range of this RX - it is both air/surface and 8ch via PPM SUM. if you put a jumper across pins 3 & 4, you get 8ch out via PPM SUM on ch 2 and rssi on ch 1 - this is excellent for multirotors or any craft that can handle PPM SUM (all channels come in in one stream so only 1 wire is needed) such as many autopilots and also fpv flying as the rssi output lets you know how strong the radio's signal is when you are out flying fpv. Futaba will not offer us a PPM SUM RX, only sbus for hundred of $$ - no thanks. don't bash it until you know its full capabilities, that is why it is a bit more or = to the larger tfr8, and don't forget that the tfr8s can be combined with another tfr8/s to get a 14ch setup - again, something Futaba dropped the ball on.

Orded 5 of these, and they arrived quickly.

Binding to the TX was easy (switch on TX, hold down F/S button on the RX then apply power to receiver). All 5 bound first time and in less than a second.

I fitted one of them to my Lightflite Bug, and have flown the model as far away as I could see it with no range or control issues at all.

So all in all I'm pretty impressed. It is already low weight, but you could, I suppose, remove the heatshrink to save another gram or so but mine work perfectly as is.

Excellent, Binder avec ma T10 et monté sur un Gémini MPX. Je suis monté un maximum à la verticale sans jamais perdre le contrôle !!!! D'ailleurs même en mode test de la radio avant le premier vol, j'ai compté plus de 65 pas sans constater quoi que ce soit d'anormal, impressionnant !!!! Bref, excellent pour nos parkflyer.
