RadioLink R8FG 8-Channel RC Receiver with Gyro Function

The RadioLink R8FG (Part No: RLKR081009) is a high-spec 8-channel surface receiver designed for advanced RC cars, heavy-duty trucks, and boats. Building on the success of the R7FG, this version adds an extra channel and features dual-antenna diversity and an integrated high-precision gyro. It is particularly valued by enthusiasts for its 600-meter range and the ability to return real-time battery voltage telemetry up to 8S LiPo.

Key Features:

• Dual-Antenna Diversity: Features two 205mm antennas that work together to eliminate signal "dead zones." This ensures a rock-solid link even when the vehicle is at the edge of its 600-meter range.
• Integrated Gyro Stability: The built-in gyro helps maintain vehicle control during high-speed runs and prevents spin-outs on loose surfaces. Sensitivity can be adjusted remotely via the transmitter (typically using the VR switch).
• 8-Channel Versatility: The 8 available PWM channels are perfect for complex models that require extra functions like winches, light kits, sound modules, or locking differentials.
• Real-Time Telemetry: Includes a dedicated telemetry port and cable to monitor your model's flight/drive battery voltage (supporting 2S–8S LiPo) directly on your transmitter screen.
• Durable & Splash-Proof: The internal PCB is treated with a nano-coating to protect against moisture and splashes (IPX4 rating), making it ideal for off-road bashing or scale boating.
• High-Voltage Compatible: Supports an input voltage up to 12V, allowing you to run high-voltage (HV) servos directly through the receiver without an external BEC.

Working Mode & Setup:

The R8FG uses a single LED to communicate its current configuration. To change the signal mode, short-press the ID SET button once. To toggle the Gyro on or off, quickly press the button 3 times within 1 second.

• Standard Mode (Green LED): 8-channel PWM output. Gyro is disabled.
• Signal Expansion (Blue LED): Channels 1-6 provide PWM, Channel 7 provides PPM, and Channel 8 provides S-Bus. Gyro is disabled.
• Gyro Mode (Red LED): 8-channel PWM output with Gyro active.
• Full Function (Purple LED): PWM, PPM, and S-Bus outputs with Gyro active.

Pro-Tip for Advanced Users:

Pro-Tip: To get the most out of the diversity system, mount the two antennas at a 90-degree angle to each other. This orientation ensures that no matter how the vehicle pitches or rolls, at least one antenna remains in an optimal position to receive the transmitter's signal. Also, remember to calibrate the gyro by letting the vehicle sit completely still for 2 seconds after power-on.

Note: Telemetry range is the same as the control range (600m), allowing you to keep a constant eye on your battery levels even during long-distance runs.
