Binding
Receiver does not have bind button. Instead it has autobind function. Bind the receiver by following procedure:

1. First set the transmitter to FLYSKY AFHDS 2A protocol, if this is available on your transmitter, and then put the transmitter into bind mode (see the transmitter’s user manual for instructions on how to activate bind mode.)
2. Connect the receiver to power, the receiver’s LED will start to flash indicating that it has entered bind mode.
3. When the receiver’s LED stops flashing and stays ON, the transmitter and receiver have successfully bound.
4. Check to make sure that the transmitter and receiver are working as expected, if there are any issues or unexpected operation follow the steps above to bind again.

After powering the receiver on, it checks for the transmitter signal on startup and switches into autobind mode if the transmitter signal is not detected.

Connecting to FC
This RX can be connected via serial iBUS or analog PPM signal. Receiver has connection wires pre-soldered to iBUS serial interface ant this is the recommended way of connection.

Pinout diagram of the FS-iA8X receiver:

iBUS output should be connected to the RX input on the FC. SBUS or Receiver input may not work as it may be inverted input as SBUS requires. Flight controllers with F3 MCU can invert RX input, but F4 need hardware inversion.  

Here is an example how iA8X receiver iBUS wire is connected to the flight controller RX2 input.

To set the flight controller with IBUS receiver input, you should turn on the “Serial RX” option in the appropriate UART (UART2 in our connection example)

Then select the “Serial-based receiver” in the Receiver Mode drop down and select “IBUS” in the Serial Receiver Provider drop down.

iA8X receiver has also PPM output, but I recommend to connect this receiver to FC via iBUS. It is the faster and more accurate protocol than PPM. Use PPM only if necessary.

iA8X receiver does not output RSSI information, but you can flash it with the alternative firmware to enable RSSI on one of the channels. Search github for more details to round it up.
