Connect SBUS/PPM receiver to the Hyper Quick release as shown below

<figure><img src="/files/QW7cy36U89Pz3QDPGypk" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

{% hint style="info" %}
The receiver must be connected to the correct wires. The SBUS/PPM port has 5V output to power the receiver; please do not use an external power supply to power the receiver at the same time. Doing so may damage
\
the electronics inside the gimbal.
{% endhint %}

## CHANNEL SETTING

**Channel Overview**

The gimbal supports **6 control channels**:

1. **MODE**
2. **TILT**
3. **ROLL**
4. **PAN**
5. **TILT SPEED**
6. **PAN SPEED**

> ⚠️ **Important:** Always assign the **MODE** channel first, as it determines the gimbal's operating state.

**MODE Channel Configuration**

The **MODE** channel controls the gimbal's working state and should be assigned to a **3-position switch**.

#### **Switch Positions & Functions:**

| **Switch Position** | **Mode**    | **Motor Status** |
| ------------------- | ----------- | ---------------- |
| High                | FOLLOW MODE | Motors ON        |
| Middle              | LOCK MODE   | Motors ON        |
| Low                 | —           | Motors OFF       |

* **FOLLOW MODE: The** gimbal follows the movement of the aircraft/operator.
* **LOCK MODE**: Gimbal maintains fixed orientation regardless of movement.
* **MOTORS OFF**: Gimbal motors powered down.

**TILT, ROLL, and PAN Channel Configuration**

The TILT and PAN channels should be in speed mode, and the ROLL channel in angle mode.

\
TILT SPEED or PAN SPEED could be assigned to the same channel and should be
\
assigned to the throttle stick, dial, or other non-centering control on the transmitter. <br>

Below is an example of channel assignment to the Futaba T8FG.

|            | CHANNEL | CONTROL | NOTE              |
| ---------- | ------- | ------- | ----------------- |
| MODE       | 5       | SC      | 3-Position Switch |
| TILT       | 2       | J2      | Speed Mode        |
| ROLL       | 4       | T4      | Angle Mode        |
| PAN        | 1       | J1      | Angle Mode        |
| TILT SPEED | 3       | J3      |                   |
| PAN SPEED  | 6       | RD      |                   |
