FlySky FS-X8B Receiver

Introduction

The FS-X8B is a compact 2-way receiver designed for multi-rotor aircraft. It uses the AFHDS 2A (Second Generation Automatic Frequency Hopping Digital System) protocol, supports standard PPM output and has i-BUS support forfor up to 18 channels.

Receiver overview

These ports connect the receiver to various models, comonents and flight controllers.
PPM signal port: Outputs standard PPM signal.
i-BUS signal port: Outputs i-BUS signal, up to 18 channels.

Attention

Make sure the product is installed and calibrated correctly, failure to do so may result in serious injury.

Make sure the receiver’s battery is disconnected before turning off the transmitter, failure to do so may lead to unintended operation or loss of control.

Make sure the receiver is mounted away from motors, electronic speed controllers or any device that emits excessive electrical noise.

Keep the receiver’s antenna at least 1cm away from conductive materials such as carbon or metal.

Do not power on the receiver during the setup process to prevent loss of control.

Binding

For information on putting the transmitter into bind mode please refer to the transmitters user manual.
Power on the receiver while holding the bind button. If the receiver’s LED is flashing this means it has entered bind mode.
