Align 150X with NE480192 S-FHSS Module question

[joanpeca]

Hi everybody! I received today my new Align 150X BTF combo. Since my transmitter is a Futaba 8FGS (only FASST) I got a NE480192 S-FHSS (this) module to fly this bird.

My question is about this module. Does it charge automatically its battery from the transmitter while it is in use, or should I charge manually from time to time with the included USB charger? It only comes with a German manual, and unfortunately I don't speak German, so maybe I'm asking something explained there...

Other modules, as the FHSS module that I use with the HiSky HCP100S charges automatically, so you can forget about charging the battery. Does this module work the same?

Thanks!

I don't know if I can answer but I can state the following...

I have the Futaba T6K S-FHSS/T-FHSS transmitter and I use a SLT module like that to fly my HeliMax ACE 100. My understanding is that SLT is different from FHSS.

T-rex 150 binds fine the the T6K.

Also, you mention using a module to fly your HiSky? I can't get my HiSky FHSS helis to bind with my T6K. What module to you use? Do you use the HT8?

Yes, it's a HT8, more or less like this. I say "more or less" because it's the one that came with the helicopter, mine is an Assault FBL 100 BTF from hobbyking, so it's rebranded as "Turnigy"... but I think is the same module.

And yes, it shouldn't bind to your transmitter... because HCP100S is only compatible with FHSS, and FHSS is incompatible with S-FHSS and T-FHSS, which are the protocols supported by your transmitter...

Next time I place a Banggood order I might pickup a HT8, to try it out on my Futaba. The little H-6 transmitter that came with my Hisky is actually quite nice thought.

Well, I answer myself... after some time tweaking parameters with the android app and with the module attached to the transmitter, the module began to beep. After recharging the battery it stop beeping, so the answer is "no, this module doesn't charge its battery from the transmitter".
