Binding T8FB transmitter to R8FM receiver

Help & Support
1

Hi!

I a new to drone operation/control and I would like your help regarding a problem I’m encountering.

I have a Radiolink T8FB transmitter that I am trying to use to control my Radiolink F110 drone. I follow the binding instructions but the transmitter/receiver do not connect. The purple or red light is remains on indicating that the bind was a success but nothing happens when I try to control throltte.

I’ve tried it with both S-BUS and PPM signals, nothing. I have the throttle set to reverse (or not), still nothing. I’ve even had the transmitter off and the receiver light stays on indicating binding is successful…

Is there something that I am missing? Interference?

My kit came with a R8EF receiver and connecting it to my transmitter is a success…

Any help would be appreciated! Thank you in advance!

Hi jplouffe,

Have you tried to “arm” the drone or you just throttle up ?
See the user manual on P.10 regarding this.

Hi dialfonzo,

Yes I’ve tried to arm (both mode 1 and mode 2) but nothing happens. The green light on the F110 is only on and blinking upon power on for 2 seconds then is always off. The green light on the remote is always on, never turns off unless I am calibrating it and then it flashes.

I initially thought it was my drone so I tried it with a 2nd F110 and neither of them respond…

Thanks for helping!

The light of the Drone or the light of the R8EF ?
Do you have a R/C type servo that you could plug to the receiver to test it ?

Hi again!
The drone has a R8FM receiver on it. The lights info I said above was for this receiver on the drone.
The transmitter with the separate R8EF receiver functions fine.

I do not have a R/C type servo to test the R8FM receiver but it’s the second R8FM/drone I’ve tried so I doubt that it doesn’t work…

Thanks.

The receiver need to be in PPM output mode not S-Bus and the LED should be Red

From RadioLink website:

Two signal working mode:

Blue/purple LED, S-BUS signal , 8 channels totally.

Red LED, PPM signal, 8 channels totally.

S-BUS and PPM signal change:

Quick press the ID SET switch twice within 1 second, the signal is changed from S-BUS to PPM. The red LED indicates the PPM and blue/purple indicates S-BUS.

How to match code with transmitter:

  1. Put the transmitter and the receiver close to each other within 1 meters.

  2. Turn on the transmitter, then power on the R8FM.

  3. There is a black button on the R8FM, press the binding button twice in two seconds and release, receiver light start blinking, after about blinking 8 times, match code success then receiver signal LED always on!

If that’s not working i don’t know, maybe contact RadioLink about it ?
