The time to upgrade is now. The X8R 2.4ghz receiver allows your PPM compatible transmitter to enter the new era of 2.4ghz r/c systems.
How does it work? The X8 receiver communicates and binds with an X8 module via the 2.4ghz spectrum, giving the user unprecedented performance and glitch free reliability never seen before in R/C FM/AM based systems.
Which module will it work with? It will work with both the X8J and X8F modules.
Key Features Assan X8R receiver -Highly secure and robust link for long distances -No crystals or channels needed -No interferance from motors, ignitions or metal to metal friction. -Short antenna -No need to change any settings on your radio.
X8F is not a receiver it is a module. And X8R is not a module this is a receiver and it works well with all X8 modules!. I used this with X8J module in turnigy 9x radio, and with X8D hack module in Futaba 6EX radio. Works good
Bon pour il fonctionne avec
X8 2.4GHz Combo pack for JR W/ Module & RX & le module Futaba aussi. Considerant que c'est la meme base (l'encodage du signal) est le meme. Ma reponse serais oui, si tu parles anglais visite RCgroups et demande. Pour ma part je suis certain a 100% que OUI.
I made a range test at the weekend for 3, 4 and 6 km both LOS and almost LOS (through some small tree and behind a small building). The receiver was on the top of a small hill about 50-60 m high, the Flysky th9x (Turnigy 9x same) radio with assan x8j module was in my hand (I went by a car and tested it inside and outside also of the car). Suprisingly I have stable link with LOS also on 3km ( from inside of the car!!!) and 4km (outside of the car), and I got also link behind a small building but with small glitches. I've made the test with and without a wifi booster on x8j module on 6 km again. Behind a small building without booster, there was hard to find link at all. I used here a booster with 1000mw and I could manage a stable link not clear LOS. Summary: Its provide very strong stable link without booster until 4km not clear LOS and also stable link with a booster 6km (not clear LOS). Earlier I've made FPV test, using also this X8R receiver with a 400mw 1.2 ghz video TX. I have stable link until 2.5 km (LOS), which was the limit of my video tx.
Has anyone actually tested the range on this thing? I'm thinking about FPV flight with this puppy, but im not gonna spend this much money if the 6km is a lie. If it can reach 4km without bull, id still buy it.
i have tested this receiver on the air, with original antennas all the way 5000 mts distance... making a fpv testing, sorry i dont have the video to show you.

Antenna is included, a short antenna (appr 8 cm with exposed sntenna wire the last 3 cm). Has a 90 degree elbow attached directly so the antenna is lying flat along the receiver (this elbow is fixed, it's not possible to reposition vert-hor - you have to reposition the receiver in that case.
en un hidro avion sera igual que en el aire, me supongo que despegaras y aterrizaras serca cierto?
uselo con confianza, lo que importa es que tenga linea de vista con el transmisor
I am done with ASSAN. I lost connection due to a failsafe hangup of the receiver, less than 30 meters from the TX. Electric system in plane was still ok after the crash. The RX simpy hung up and didn't react. After reboot, all was normal again. I believe, the blocking of the X8R Receiver was due to a software crash. This crash made me loose a 1000$ plane.
*Jesus Manuel: This seems to be the wrong film *-)
I opened the case of X8R an saw a missing resistor and the spare internal antenna lying loose in the case. This was due to vibrations of my 50cc gasser and the fact, that the inner parts of the receiver can move in the housing of the receiver. Before use in a gasser, FIX THIS WITH HOT GLUE to avoid accident!
I thing you had a isolated event. The ASSAN doesn't have any issues with range just to clarify. Just make sure to wrap your receiver in foam to protect from vibrations and you won't have any problems.
I asked the above voltage question to ASSAN support. Here is their answer: "i know there have some guys want use 1s li-poly or 2s li-poly pack as direct power supplier for receiver and servos.
our current receiver can worked at 2.7v to 10v.but we don't advice used in min or max volatge.that will make the system workd not as good as normal volatge(4.8v/6v)."
As the V2 seems to be most wanted, could HKing please tell us, wheter this receiver is a V2 or is it elder stock. On the image, the V2 sticker doesn't show!
As with everything in this store, stock is usually replaced every 2-4 weeks on everything, so belive me, this is very likely the latest. And, I was not aware that an earlier version of the X8R actually excisted, to my knowledge the X8R has been in the V2 series since launching, like the X8RP and X8R10.
It is true long range, 1-6km, and the only one from assan with that range.... All the other Assan "long range" are up to 1km. (Parkflyer range up to 200m.) In addition, it is computer programmable failsafe, so this is the first true "high end" from Assan. I cannot tell why it cost that much, but even chinese engineering have costs:)
first, it is 8 channel, second, it has a superb reception sensitivity, also you can connect an external antenna with a sma connectos..... did i mention it is programmable?
I would also like to know the answer to Balazs question: "Can this receiver operate with 7,4V [2S LiPo]? What is the normal operating voltage? In the manual is only the following: "X8 series receiver requires a voltage higher than 3.6V."
Tested this receiver by walking away from the transmitter at the beach in Belgium. I walked for at least 3 km from Wenduine to Blankenberge WITHOUT losing signal.

Ik heb deze ontvanger getest aan de Belgische kust door met deze ontvanger weg te lopen van de zender. Minstens 3 km gewandeld van Wenduine naar Blankenberge zonder verlies van signaal.

excellent receiver! I tested it on 1,1km, the plane on the top of my car. the test was successful even the pane was near ground (1,6m above ground). I fly now the 2.1m motor plane without any problems. The is no USB-programming adaptor included:-/ where can I get this adaptor?

Guter Empfnger mit der guten Reichweite. Man kann die Leistung und Failsafe am PC einstellen. Zur Verbindung habe hexTronik USB Key for HXT BESC auch vom HK benutzt - unter XP funzt super. Wichtig! - Manual von Assan gut lesen !

Good receiver. On ground tested more than 800 m. Binding perfect.
