EnglishT8FB(OTG) FAQ
Q: How to distinguish T8FB(OTG) and T8FB(BT)?
A: You can distinguish T8FB(OTG) or T8FB(BT) from the label. Please check below pictures:


Q: What is the difference between T8FB(OTG) and T8FB(BT)?
A: Their firmware and Parameter Adjustment APP are different.
If it is T8FB BT version, you can download the firmware and Parameter Adjustment APP from the below link:

If it is Chinese web page, please click English on the upper right corner to change the Chinese web page to English. (Note: Do not use software to translate the Chinese web page to English.) Then you can download the Parameter Setting Software in English.

Q: My T8FB keeps beeping. How to make the beeping sound stop?
A: If T8FB keeps beeping when connecting to the mobile phone APP, you need to press any one of the below trimmer buttons to confirm the connection. After pressing the trimmer button, the beeping sound stops and the connection succeeds.

If T8FB beeps after the connection succeeds, you need to check whether alarm is caused by transmitter voltage alarm, model voltage alarm or RSSI alarm. You can set the value to be lower if the value is high.

Please note: Default low battery alarm voltage of T8FB will be automatically set according to the battery used. For 2S lipo battery, it is 7.3V. For 3S lipo battery, it is 11V. For 4 AA batteries with 1.5V, the default low battery alarm voltage is 5V. But the working voltage of T8FB is 4.8V-18V. So we do not recommend users to use 4 AA battery. Because the fully voltage is 6V and it will go off alarm when it is 5V. We recommend users to use 2/3/4S lipo battery, which will be more durable when using on T8FB.

Q: What if the servo range exceeds the red line when doing transmitter calibration in RadioLink Mission Planner of flight controller (Mini Pix &Turbo Pix)?
A: The default servo range of T8FB is 96. If the servo range exceeds the red line when calibrating in RadioLink Mission Planner of flight controller (Mini Pix &Turbo Pix), connect T8FB to the parameter setup APP or software and click BASIC MENU and slightly decrease the servo range value.
Q: Why the servo range jitters when the APP is opened?
A: When there are multiple parameter setup apps running at the back stage, extra data will be read as the servo range displays are not encrypted. Thus, turn off all the running apps, reconnect T8FB to mobile with the USB cable and OTG cable. Click ALLOW to open the APP when the notice pops out asking for open permission.
Q: I use the T8FB controller as a single stick(mixing Channels 1 and 2) for a car, why there is only one wheel move when I move the stick up and down?And the other one wheel move when I move the stick left and right.
A: Set ELEVON in advance menu. And set MIX to ACT.
Q: Does T8FB support head tracking function?
A: NO.
Q: Can I bind T8FB to 2 receivers at the same time? For example, 1-4 channel for one receiver, 5-7 to the other receiver.
A: Yes. You can control the two receivers at the same time.
Q: Can T8FB/T8S set D/R for multiple channels at the same time?
A: Yes. Channels 1 to 4 can be set for different servo travel range both individually and at the same time.
When setting one channel for different servo travel range, click “WRITE” after setting D/R value for the corresponding channel. When setting 4 channels for different servo travel range at the same time, click “WRITE” after setting D/R value for each channel. For example: after setting D/R value of channel 1, click “WRITE” to save the settings, and then switch the channel to “CH2”. Set D/R value of channel 2, and then click “WRITE” to save the settings. Repeat this step for channel 3 and channel 4.
Q: Can I set delta wing mixing function on T8FB/T8S?
A: Yes. You can set ELEVON in the Parameter Setup APP:


Note: Do not set ELEVON when the aircraft is equipped with a flight controller, because the mixing in the transmitter will conflict with the mixing in the flight controller. Please refer to the manual of the to flight controller view the setting method.

Q: What’s the function of USB port of T8FB? Can it be used on a computer as a controller as well?
A: The USB port of T8FB is for upgrading the firmware and for copying the data to the computer. It cannot be used on the computer as a controller.
Do not use the USB port as a charging port, or it will damage the transmitter.
Q: Why do users encounter various problems when reading SBUS signals?
A:
1. When the data read by the user differs from the reference data we provide, please check whether the EPA setting of each channel in the transmitter is the same. If the EPA setting for each channel is different, the read signal range will be different.
2. If the SBUS data cannot be read, please check whether the devices used are working properly and whether there is any problem with the connecting cable.
3. Our products support standard SBUS signals compatible with various flight controllers. Please refer to the chart below for detailed information.
