has anyone any idea on how to make the archer plus GR8 receiver output regular SBUS signals?
i cannot connect it to my SBUS XPS X10 channel expander
ok problem solved - the right connection on the archer plus GR8 is the SBUS.out pin next to CH8. now it connects to the X10+ when set to Futaba SBUS - 2 flashes. in my case where i tried to connect a radiomaster TX16S to the x10 i needed to update the FW in the 4-in-1 radiomaster module and the latest in the transmitter (as of march 2026)
so that allows one to keep the XPS x10+ wired up to the servos and only replace the receiver. the GR8 has a built-in barometer which is nice for glider flying. today i flew about 500ft (135m) up and had no issues with the telemetry
.
i still wish i had a spektrum module for the EVO 12. to me that is one of the most ergonomic transmitters. even the screen is a simple LCD screen it is at the front of the transmitter and not blocked by the necklace band.
bottom line is it seems that the x10++ works well with SBUS receivers in general.
