Hi if anyone can help , appreciated
Tx Futaba T8J
Rx Futaba 2000SB
Spirit Pro
no S-BUS
Settings and wiring
Spirit ELEV/PITCH/AIL to Rx channels 1/6/2
Spirit RUD to Rx channel 4
Spirit CH4 to Rudder servo
Spirit CH3 to Aileron servo
Spirit CH2 to Elevator servo
Spirit Ch1 to Pitch servo
unfortunately doesn't work ,swashplate irrelevant to stick move . Tried everything nothing work .
Any ideas ?

Hi,
if it possible to use the S-BUS then it would be better and easier.
Please try to connect also AUX port with the receiver if you want to use the PWM connection scheme.
Please do not look at the swashplate yet, but at the Diagnostic tab in the Spirit Settings first.
There channel movement should be correct, eventually channel reversing might be needed to obtain correct direction of the movement in the Diagnostic tab.
It should be:
Spirit ELE/PIT/AIL to Rx channels 2/6/1
Spirit RUD to Rx channel 4
Spirit AUX to Rx channel 5

ok so here is what I have on my screen , when i move Tx stick only rudder response
connection
Spirit Pro
ELEV/PIT/AIL - Rx 2/Rx 3/Rx 1
RUD - Rx 4
AUX1 - BEC
CH4 - rudder servo
CH3 - pitch servo
CH2 - elev servo
CH1 - aileron servo
no other connections , no response from pitch/elev/ailer servos
what's wrong ?

Can you tell me what receiver it really is, please?
Unfortunately I can't find any receiver such as 2000SB from Futaba.
If it has 4 ports then it is designed usually for S-BUS. In that case I highly recommend to use S-BUS.
Otherwise you will be unable to connect throttle anywhere.

Thank you. Then please connect the cables as I have written in the original reply.
For some reason you have wired it differently in the receiver.
Anyway usage of the S-Bus protocol would be much easier, more reliable, faster and precise.

so guys , I promise I'm asking for support last time , can you please support me with connections ?
S-bus HUB - what should I connect here - 3 servos (pitch/aileron/elev) and then to Rx S/bus slot ?
BEC - to Spirit AUX1 ?
where should I connect rudder servo ?
how should I link Rx with Spirit ?
I have 4 servos (pitch/ail/elev/rudder)
S-BUS Futaba HUB
receiver R2008SB
Spirit Pro
BEC
how all of this should be linked together ?

Spirit RUD to Receiver S-Bus
Spirit CH4 to Rudder servo
Spirit CH3 to Aileron servo
Spirit CH2 to Elevator servo
Spirit Ch1 to Pitch servo
BEC to Aux 1

When you will open the Setup Wizard you can see how to connect the cables exactly - depending on your swashplate.
With S-BUS it is much easier and also safer than with PWM.
