R3001SBT-FHSS Air 2.4GHz System
S.BUS2 Port andS.BUS Port (or PWM CH3 Port)
Small size, Light weight ReceiverThank you for purchasing a Futaba R3001SB T-FHSS Air-2.4GHz compatible receiver. The R3001SB receiver features bidirectional communication with a T-FHSS Air-2.4GHz Futaba transmitter using the S.BUS2 port. Using the S.BUS2 port an
impressive array of telemetry sensors may be utilized. It also includes both standard S.BUS output port or PWM (ch3) output port.

FASST/FASSTest/S-FHSS/T-FHSS Car system. Futaba FASST/FASSTest/S-FHSS/T-FHSS Car system and T-FHSS Air system
are not compatible to each other.

Do not cut or bundle the receiver antenna wire.
Do not bend the coaxial cable. It causes damage.
The antenna should not be pulled.

WARNING
Wrap the receiver with something soft, such as foamrubber, to avoid vibration. Moreover, the receiver mustnot get wet.
Do not short-circuit the connectors.
Do not expose the receiver to high temperatures.

Keep the antenna as far away from the motor, ESC
and other noise sources as you possibly can.
Do not touch the antenna to metal, carbon, or otherconductive material.
Be sure that the two antennas are placed at 90 degrees to each other.

• The shrink cover could become distorted.

• The R3001SB has two antennas. In order to maximize signal reception and promote safe modeling Futaba has adopted a diversity antenna system. This allows the receiver to obtain RF signals on bothantennas and ﬂy problem-free.

Do not break the tube.
• Could cause a short circuit.

When inserting and removing a connector, hold thereceiver tightly.

WARNING
The antenna portion of 30mm tip must be fully exposed.

• Be careful so that a tube doesn't come off.

1 Bring the transmitter and the receiver close to each

* If there are many T-FHSS Air systems turned on in close proximity,
your receiver might have difﬁculty establishing a link to your transmitter. This is a rare occurrence. However, should another T-FHSS Air
transmitter/receiver be linking at the same time, your receiver could
link to the wrong transmitter. This is very dangerous if you do not notice this situation. In order to avoid the problem,we strongly recommend you to double check whether your receiver is really under control by your transmitter.

2 Turn on the transmitter. Place the transmitter into the* If the System Type of the transmitter is changed, the receiver will need

* Link is required when a new model is made from a model selection.

3 Turn on the receiver.
4 The receiver will wait for the linking process to begin
for 3 seconds. Following that it will return to thenormal operation mode.

5 When the LED of the receiver changes from blinking
red to solid green, linking is completed.
(A link waiting state is ended in 3 second.)* Refer to the transmitters operation manual for complete details on how
to place the transmitter into the linking mode.

1 Turn on the receiver. (At this moment, the transmittershould be off.) Then, LED blinks RED in about 3seconds. Next, wait until it becomes solid RED.
2 Press and hold the Mode switch more than 5seconds.
3 Release the button when the LED blinks RED andGREEN simultaneously.
4 The receiver is now in the "Operation CH Set" mode.
At this moment, the LED indicates current set status through ﬂashing a pattern that corresponds to theCH mode.

Do not perform the linking procedure while the motor's main wire connected or the engine is operating as it
may result in serious injury.
When the linking is complete, please cycle the receiver power and ensure the receiver is properly linked to thetransmitter.
Please power up your system in this order. Transmitter ﬁrst, followed by the receiver.
If the R3001SB receiver was previously linked to another transmitter, make sure that transmitter is not operating while linking the receiver to the new transmitter.

6 The operation mode will be set by pressing the Modeswitch more than 2 seconds at the desired CHmode.
7 Release the button when the LED blinks RED andGREEN simultaneously. Then, the operation CH isﬁxed.
8 After confirming the operation CH mode is changed,
turn off and back on the receiver power.

What is S.BUS?
Different from conventional radio control systems, the S.BUS
system uses data communication to transmit control signals
from a receiver to a servo, gyro, or other S.BUS compatibledevices. This data includes commands such as “move thechannel 3 servo to 15 degrees, move the channel 5 servo to30 degrees” to multiple devices. The S.BUSGHYLFHVH[HFXWH
only those commands for their own set channel. For thisreason, it can be used by connecting multiple servos to thesame signal line.

WARNING
Turn on the power on transmitter → receiver in order.
In addition, always check the operation of all the functions before ﬂight.
WARNING
Do not insert or remove the S.BUS connector while
the receiver power is ON.
Since the S.BUS servo switches the operation mode automaticallyaccording to the type of signal (S.BUS signal/PWM signal) from the receiver, if the connector is inserted or removed while the power is ON, anS.BUS connected servo will be erroneously recognized and may stop.
