Telemetry System
The R7008SB receiver features bi-directional communication with a FASSTest 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 PWM output ports and S.BUS output ports.
* Telemetry is available only in the FASSTest 14CH mode. (12CH mode displays only Receiver battery
voltage and Extra battery voltage.)
* The telemetry function requires the corresponding receiver (R7008SB).
* The T14SG will enter and keep the ID number of the R7008SB that it is linked to.

<Basic Operation>
Link procedure (T14SG/R7008SB)
Each transmitter has an individually assigned, unique ID code. In order to start operation, the receiver
must be linked with the ID code of the transmitter with which it is being paired. Once the link is made,
the ID code is stored in the receiver and no further linking is necessary unless the receiver is to be used
with another transmitter. When you purchase additional R7008SB receivers, this procedure is necessary;
otherwise the receiver will not work.
Link procedure
1.Placethetransmitterandthereceiverclose
to each other within half (0.5m) meter.
2. Turn on the transmitter.
3. Select [SYSTEM] at the Linkage menu and
access the setup screen shown below by
touching the RTN button.
4. When you use two receivers on one model,
you must change from [SINGLE] to [DUAL].
*Only two receivers can be used. In
"DUAL", two setting items come out. Input,
respectively.
5."F"willbechosenifitisusedinFrance.others

*OnlyinFASSTestMode.
7.[LINK] is chosen by scrolling and the RTN
button is pushed. The transmitter will emit a
chime as it starts the linking process.
8. When the transmitter starts to chime, power
on the receiver. The receiver should link to
the transmitter within about 1 second.
9. If linking fails, an error message is displayed.
Bring the transmitter closer to the receiver
and repeat the procedure above from Step 2.
10. ACT will be chosen if telemetry is used.
It is INH when not using it.

38 <Basic Operation>
11. When a telemetry function is enabled,
the receiving interval (down-link interval) of
sensor data can be changed. If a DL interval
is increased, the response of the sensor data
display becomes slower, but stick response
will improve.
Initial value: 1.0s
Adjustment range: 0.1s~2.0s
* If there are many FASSTest systems turned on around your
receiver, it might not link to your transmitter. In this case,
even if the receiver's LED stays solid green, unfortunately
the receiver might have established a link to one of other
transmitters. This is very dangerous if you do not notice
this situation. In order to avoid the problem, we strongly
recommend you to doublecheck whether your receiver is
really under control by your transmitter by giving the stick
input and then checking the servo response.
*Do not perform the linking operation when the drive motor
is connected or the engine is running.
* When you use two receivers, please be sure to setup a
"primary" and "secondary" in the "dual" mode.
*Since two sets of receivers cannot be individually
recognized without using a "primary" and "secondary"
setup, it is impossible to receive telemetry data correctly.
* You must link one receiver at a time. If both power
supplies to the receivers are switched on simultaneously,
data is received incorrectly by the transmitter.
* If a dual receiver function is used, in order to receive
sensor information correctly by both sets, telemetry data
will be slower compared to a single receiver setup.
* You cannot link three receivers.
* Link is required when a system type is changed.
* Linking is required whenever a new model is made.
* Link is required when a system type is changed.
Warning
After the linking is done, please cycle receiver
power and check that the receiver to be linked
is really under the control of the transmitter.
Do not perform the linking procedure with
motor's main wire connected or with the engine
operating as it may result in serious injury.

<Basic Operation>
Range Testing Your R/C System
It is extremely important to range check your models prior to each flying session. This enables you to
ensure that everything is functioning as it should and to obtain maximum enjoyment from your time ying.
The T14SG transmitter incorporates a system that reduces its power output and allows you to perform such
a range check.
Range check mode
We have installed a special "Range check
mode" for doing a ground range check. To access
the "Range check mode" touch and hold the RTN
button while turning on the transmitter. Doing so
will bring up POWER MODE menu.
To activate the "Range check mode" touch the
RTN button and the range check mode screen will
appear.
During this mode, the RF power output is
reduced so the range test can be performed. In
addition, when this mode is activated the right
LED on the front of the transmitter starts blinking
and the transmitter gives users a warning with a
beeping sound every 3 seconds.
The "Range check mode" continues for 90
seconds and after that the power will return
to the normal level. To exit the "Range check
mode" before the 90 seconds, select the "RANGE
CHECK" at the top of the screen and touch the
RTN button again. This mode is available one
time only so if you need to re-use this function the
transmitter power must be cycled. NEVER start
ying when the "Range check mode" is active.
Should you require additional time to perform
a range check, highlight Restart before your time
expires and press the RTN button one time.
Range check procedure
1. With the "Range check mode" on, walk
away from the model while simultaneously
operating the controls. Have an assistant
stand by the model to confirm that all
controls are completely and correctly
operational. You should be able to walk
approximately 30-50 paces from the model
without losing control.
2. If everything operates correctly, return to
the model. Set the transmitter in a safe, yet
accessible, location so it will be within reach
after starting the engine or motor. Be certain
the throttle stick is in the low throttle position,
thenstarttheengineormotor.Perform
another range check with your assistant
holding the aircraft with the engine running
at various speeds. If the servos jitter or move
inadvertently, there may be a problem. We
wouldstronglysuggestyoudonotyuntilthe
sourceofthedifcultyhasbeendetermined.
Look for loose servo connections or binding
pushrods. Also, be certain that the battery
has been fully charged.

Warning
Do not y in the range check mode.
*Since the range of the radio waves is short, if the model
is too far from the transmitter, control will be lost and the
model will crash.

MODEL BASIC SETTING PROCEDURE
1. Model addition and selection
Initially, the T14SG assigns the first model to
model-01 in the transmitter. The Model Select
function of the Linkage Menu is used to add
models and to select amongst models which are
already set.
The T14SG is capable of storing data for up
to 30 models in its internal memory. Additional
model data can also be saved to an optional SD
card.
The currently selected model name is displayed
in the center of the home screen. Before ying and
before changing any settings, always confirm the
model name.
When a new model is added, the Model type
select screen and System mode setup screen
automatically appear. Please be aware that the
transmitter will stop transmitting temporarily when
you change the model.
When a new model is added, you will need to re-
link the receiver.
2. Model type selection
Select the model type matched to the aircraft
with the Model Type select function of the Linkage
Menu. For an airplane, select the model type from
among the 2 types: airplane and glider. And then
select the wing type and the tail type matched to
the aircraft.
Airplane/glider basic setting procedure
3. Fuselage linkage
Connect the ailerons, elevators, throttle, rudder,
etc. in accordance with the model's instruction
manual. For a description of the connection
method, see the Receiver and Servos Connection.
Note that even for the same "airplane
model", when the wing type and tail type
are different, the channel assignment may
be different. (The channel assigned to each
function can be checked at the Function
menu of the Linkage Menu.)

<Model Basic Setting Procedure>
throttle stick in the 1/3 or less (slow side) position.
5. Idle down setting (Airplane)
The idling speed can be lowered with one touch
by a switch without changing the throttle trim
position. Perform this setting with the Idle Down
function of the Linkage Menu. After activating the
Idle Down function and selecting the switch, adjust
the idle down speed. For safety, the idle down
function acts only when the throttle stick is in the
lowest part of its throw.
*While the Throttle Cut function is in operation, the Idle
Down function does not work.
6. D/R function
D/R function is used to adjust the throw and
operation curve of the stick functions (aileron,
elevator, rudder and throttle) for each switch
position (airplane) or each ight condition (glider).
This is normally used after the modeler has dened
the maximum throw directions in the End Point
settings.
(Airplane)
(Glider)
7. Airbrake (Airplane)
This function is used when an airbrake is
necessary when taking off or diving, etc. Please
note: this menu item is only available under certain
wing congurations. For example, it will not appear
if a single aileron wing type has been selected.
The pre-set elevator and ap offset amount can
be activated by a switch.
The offset amount of the aileron, elevator, and
flap servos can be adjusted as needed. Also the
speed of the aileron, elevator, and ap servos can
be adjusted. You can also set the Auto Mode, which
will link Airbrake to a stick, switch, or dial. A
separate stick switch or dial can also be set as the
ON/OFF switch.
8. Addition of ight conditions (Glider)
The Condition Select function automatically
allocates the normal condition (NORMAL) for
each model. NORMAL is the default condition and
is the only one active when a new model type is
dened.
If you want to add ight conditions, please refer
to a description of the CONDITION function.
*The NORMAL is always on, and remains on until other
conditions are activated by switches, stick positions, etc.
Please refer to the section entitled Switch Selection Method
for additional information on how to do so.
*It is possible to customize the activation of the flight
conditions.
*The Condition Delay can be programmed for each channel.
The Condition Delay is used to change the servo throw
smoothly when switching conditions.
46 <Model Basic Setting Procedure>
1. Model addition and selection
Initially, the T14SG assigns the first model to
model-01 in the transmitter. To add new models
or to select a model already programmed, use the
Model Select function of the Linkage Menu.
This is convenient when selecting a model
after entering the model's names in advance. The
T14SG is capable of storing up to 30 models in the
transmitter's internal memory. Additional models
can also be stored in an optional SD card.
The currently selected model is displayed in
the middle of the screen. Before flying and before
changing any settings, always confirm the model
name.
When a new model is added, the Model Type select
screen and system mode setup screen automatically
appear. Change, or check that they match the swash
type and receiver type of the model used.
When a new model is added, you will need to re-
link the receiver.
2. Model type and swash type selection
If a different model type is already selected,
select helicopter with the Model Type function of
the Linkage Menu, and then select the swash type
matched to the helicopter.
*The Model Type function automatically selects the
appropriate output channels, control functions, and mixing
Helicopter basic setting procedure
This section outlines examples of use of the helicopter functions of the T14SG. Adjust the actual values,
etc. to match the fuselage used.
functions for the chosen model type. Six swash types are
available for helicopters.
*For a description of the swash type selection, refer to the
MODEL TYPE function.
3. Flight condition addition
The transmitter offers up to ve ight conditions
per model.
The Condition Select function automatically
allocates ve conditions for helicopters.

Note: Since you may accidentally activate
a condition that not previously setup during
ight which could cause a crash, we suggest
deleting conditions that are not used.
*For a description of the condition deletion, refer to the
Condition Select function.
The NORMAL condition is always on, and
remains on until other conditions are activated by
switches.
The priority is throttle hold/idle up 3/idle up 2/
idle up 1/normal. Throttle hold has the highest
priority.
The Condition Delay can be programmed for
each channel and condition. The Condition Delay
is used to change the servo throw smoothly when
switching conditions.

9. Throttle hold setting
*If throttle hold is necessary, please refer to the THR HOLD
function.
10. Throttle cut setting
Throttle cut provides an easy way to stop the
engine, by ipping a switch with the throttle stick
at idle. The action is not functional at high throttle
to avoid accidental dead sticks. The switch’s
location and direction must be chosen, as it defaults
to NULL.
*With throttle stick at idle, adjust the cut position until the
engine consistently shuts off, but throttle linkage is not
binding.
11. Swash Mix corrects aileron, elevator and
pitch interaction
The swash mix function is used to correct the
swash plate in the aileron (Left/Right Cyclic)
and elevator (Forward/Aft Cyclic) direction
corresponding to each operation of each condition.
6. D/R function
D/R function is used to adjust the throw and
operation curve of aileron, elevator and rudder for
each condition.
*For throttle and pitch curve settings, refer to the afore-
mentioned "Throttle/Pitch curve setting"
This is normally used after End Point has dened
the maximum throw directions.
7. Gyro sensitivity and mode switching
The gyro sensitivity and mode switching
function is utilized to adjust the gyro mixing of the
model, and can be set for each condition.
● Normalcondition(hovering):Gyrosensitivity

8. Pitch to RUD mixing setting
Note: When using a Futaba GY Gyro, or other
heading hold gyro, this Pitch to RUD mixing
should not be used. The reaction torque is
corrected by the gyro. When operating the
gyro in the AVCS mode, the mixed signal will
cause neutral deviation symptoms and the
gyro will not operate normally.
Use this function when you want to suppress
the torque generated by the changes in the pitch
and speed of the main rotor during pitch operation.
Adjust it so that the nose does not swing in the
rudder direction. However, when using a heading
hold gyro like those shown above, do not use Pitch
to rudder mixing.
Activate the Pitch to rudder (Pit -->RUD) mixing

TRAINER Trainer system starting and setting
T14SG trainer system makes it possible for the
instructor to chose which channels and operation
modes that can be used in the students transmitter.
The function and rate of each channel can be
set, the training method can also be matched to
the student's skill level. Two transmitters must be
connected by an optional Trainer Cord, and the
Instructors’ transmitter should be programmed for
trainer operation, as described below.
When the Instructor activates the trainer switch,
the student has control of the aircraft (if MIX/
FUNC/NORM mode is turned on, the Instructor
can make corrections while the student has control).
When the switch is released the Instructor regains
control. This is very useful if the student gets the
aircraft into an undesirable situation.
● Setting data are stored to model data.
Student rate can be adjusted at MIX/FUNC/
NORM mode.
Activated student channels can be selected
by switches.
NOTE: This trainer system can be used in the
following manner;
1. With the T14SG transmitter and a conventional
transmitter, if the channel order is different,
it is necessary to match the channel order
before using this function.
You can select the channel of input data
from student's transmitter in the "FUNC" or
"MIX" mode.
2. When the T14SG is used as the instructor’s
transmitter, set the modulation mode of the
student’s transmitter to PPM.
If being used as the student, T14SG can be
connected to the instructor's transmitter which
the PPM mode as the student's modulation
mode is required. T14SG always sends PPM
mode signal from the trainer jack.
3. Be sure that all channels work correctly in
both transmitters before ying.

<Functions of System Menu>
S.BUS Servo Description of function of each parameter
*There are a function which can be used according to the kind of servo, and an impossible function.
• ID
Displays the ID of the servo whose parameters are to be read. It cannot be changed.
• Channel
Channel of the S.BUS system assigned to the servo. Always assign a channel before use.
• Reverse
The direction in which the servo rotates can be changed.
• Servo type
When “Retractable” is selected and the servo has been continuously stopped for 30 seconds, the dead band
expands and unnecessary hold current due to external force is eliminated. When a new control signal enters,
normal operation is resumed. When using the servo as a landing gear servo, select “Retractable”. Also adjust the
servo travel to match the landing gear movement range.
• Soft Start
Restricts operation in the specified direction the instant the power is turned on. By using this setting, the first initial
movement when the power is turned on slowly moves the servo to the specified position.
• Stop Mode
The state of the servo when the servo input signal is lost can be specified. The "Hold" mode setting holds the
servo in its last commanded position even if using AM or FM system.
• Smoother
This function changes smoothness of the servo operation relative to stick movement changes. Smooth setting is
used for normal flight. Select the "OFF" mode when quick operation is necessary such as 3D.
• Neutral Offset
The neutral position can be changed. When the neutral offset is large value, the servo's range of travel is restricted
on one side.
• Speed Control
Speeds can be matched by specifying the operating speed. The speed of multiple servos can be matched without
being affected by motor fluctuations. This is effective for load torques below the maximum torque.
However, note that the maximum speed will not be exceed what the servo is capable of even if the servos
operating voltage is increased.
• Dead band
The dead band angle at stopping can be specified.
[Relationship between dead band set value and servo operation]
Small Dead band angle is small and the servo is immediately operated by a small signal change.
Large Dead band angle is large and the servo does not operate at small signal changes.
(Note) If the dead band angle is too small, the servo will operate continuously and the current consumption will
increase and the life of the servo will be shortened.
• Travel Adjust
The left and right travels centered about the neutral position can be set independently.
• Boost
The minimum current applied to the internal motor when starting the servo can be set. Since a small travel does
not start the motor, it essentially feels like the dead band was expanded. The motor can be immediately started by
adjusting the minimum current which can start the motor.
[Relationship between boost set value and servo operation]
Small Motor reacts to a minute current and operation becomes smooth.
Large Initial response improves and output torque increases. However, if the torque is too large, operation will
become rough.
66 <Functions of System Menu>
• Boost ON/OFF
OFF : It is the boost ON at the time of low-speed operation.(In the case of usual)
ON : It is always the boost ON.(When quick operation is hope)
• Damper
The characteristic when the servo is stopped can be set.
When smaller than the standard value, the characteristic becomes an overshoot characteristic. If the value is
larger than the standard value, the brake is applied before the stop position.
Especially, when a large load is applied, overshoot, etc. are suppressed by inertia and hunting may occur,
depending on the conditions. If hunting (phenomena which cause the servo to oscillate) occurs even though the
Dead Band, Stretcher, Boost and other parameters are suitable, adjust this parameter to a value larger than the
initial value.
[Relationship between damper set value and servo operation]
Small When you want to overshoot. Set so that hunting does not occur.
Large When you want to operate so that braking is not applied. However, it will feel like the servo response has
worsened.
(Note) If used in the hunting state, not only will the current consumption increase, but the life of the servo will also
be shortened.
• Stretcher
The servo hold characteristic can be set. The torque which attempts to return the servo to the target position
when the current servo position has deviated from the target position can be adjusted.
This is used when stopping hunting, etc., but the holding characteristic changes as shown below.
[Relationship between stretcher and servo operation]
Small Servo holding force becomes weaker.
Large Servo holding force becomes stronger.
(Note) When this parameter is large, the current consumption increases.
• Buzzer
When the power supply of a servo is previously turned on at the time of a power supply injection without taking
transmit of a transmitter, the buzzer sound of about 2.5 Hz continues sounding from a servo.
(Even when the transmit of a transmitter is taken out previously, a buzzer becomes until the signal of a servo is
outputted normally, but it is not unusual.)
The transmitter has been turned OFF ahead of a servo power supply The buzzer sound of about 1.25 Hz
continues sounding as servo power supply end failure alarm.
(Do not insert or remove the servo connector while the receiver power is ON. A buzzer may sound
by incorrect recognition.)
Buzzer sound is generated by vibrating the motor of a servo.
Since current is consumed and a servo generates heat, please do not operate the number more than needed or
do not continue sounding a buzzer for a long time.

The T14SG is for 2.4GHz only. The system
can be changed from among 5 choices: FASSTest
14CH, FASSTest 12CH, FASST MULTI,
FASST 7CH, S-FHSS. It is FASSTest14CH and
FASSTest12CH which can be chosen by R7008SB
set. The method of selection is to the next page.
*If you change the System Type, other model data is not
reset.
*If a system type is changed in Helicopter mode, the
transmitter will offer two selections:
[Yes] : Selection sets the channel order suitable for System
Type. (We recommend here. )
[No] : The present channel order is maintained.
*After any change, remember to test the model and should
fully check servo direction and a motion.
*Analog servos cannot be used with the R7008SB in the

The T14SG transmitter has been designed to
function in many countries. If you will be utilizing
this transmitter in a country other than France,
please make sure that [AREA] is set to "G". If,
however, this transmitter will be utilized in France,
it must be set to "F" in order to comply with French
regulations.FASST mode selection
Receiver linking
The receiver will only be controlled (without
being affected by other transmitters) by the
transmitter it is linked to. When using a receiver
other than one purchased as a set, linking is
necessary.
Moreover, a re-link is required when a new
model is added by model selection, and the time of

FASSTest 12CH mode.
Dual receiver function (only FASSTest 14CH
mode)
Dual receivers can be linked with the T14SG.
Two receivers are recognized individually by ID
numbers. For example, in R7008SB, CH output
setting function is used, by setting the first as as
"1-8CH", and setting the second as "9-14CH", two
sets of receivers can be used as a set in the model,
allowing you 14 channels. If a Dual receiver
function is used, the following function can set up
individually.
Battery fail-safe voltage setup
Telemetry function ON/OFF
Sensor setup
Battery fail-safe voltage setup (only FASSTest
mode)
The voltage which battery fail-safe activates,
can be set when you link. (3.5-8.4V) The receiver
memorizes the setting as it was at link.
Suggested setting voltages are as follows.
• 4 cells NiCd or NiMH (Normal: 4.8v) = 3.8 v
• 2 cells LiFe (Normal: 6.6 v) = 6.0 ~ 6.2 v
• 2 cells LiPo (Normal: 7.4 v) = 7.2 ~ 7.4 v
It is a rough reference value.
Since it changes with servos carried in the
condition and the model of a battery, please set to
your own model in a battery consumption current.

For safety, always set the fail safe functions.
●Remember to set the throttle channel fail safe function so that
the servo moves to the maximum slow side for airplanes and
to the slow side from the hovering position for helicopters.
Crashing of the model at full high when normal radio waves
cannot be received due to interference, etc., is very dangerous.
If the battery fail safe is reset by the throttle stick, it may
be mistaken for an engine malfunction and will be reset at
throttle slow and the model will continue to y. If you have
any doubts, immediately land.
