Fail-safe setting:

C4SF-HV set failsafe on the S-FHSS/FHSS transmitter just like the operation of the FUTABA receivers if the feature exist. We highly recommend you set failsafe feature while driving your models. An example of a useful Failsafe setting would be to shut down the model's throttle, so that it does not fly or drive away uncontrolled.


Special/Normal mode switch guide:

If your receiver has been linked with your transmitter, please power off your transmitter. When your receiver's LED light red, push down and hold the button on your receiver for more than 6 seconds and not more than 10 seconds, release the button to see the green led flash, push down the button again right now, receiver get back to light red. Now the MODE status has changed between Special mode and Normal mode. When green led flash low indicate normal mode to special mode, and green led flash fast indicate special mode to normal mode.

Under the special mode status, you can get S.BUS output feature on the 4th channel, other channels not changed.

NOTE: if you want to reset the receiver to normal mode, you can rebind the receiver to your transmitter.
