title_body: How to use an XM+ receiver without a flight controller? All of the model aircraft I have seen without flight controllers normally have a receiver with all of the channels separate. Is there any way I can use a receiver like an XM+ receiver on a model aircraft without a flight controller?
upvoted_answer: Yes, you most certainly can. The device you will need is called an SBus Decoder, which splits the SBus serial signal from your FrSky XM+ into several different PWM channels.
