FrSky TW GR8 Twin Receiver With Variometer

Overview:

The FrSky TW GR8 is a 8 channel, dual 2.4GHz frequency receiver with SBUS/FBUS/S.Port and built in variometer.

TWIN series TW GR8 receiver features a new stable TW protocol which benefits from simultaneously integrating dual active 2.4G frequency bands. The TW active-active protocol is different from the general active-standby redundancy solutions (where one receiver takes over signal control only when the other is in Failsafe mode), with the TW protocol, dual 2.4G frequency bands are active on the TW series receiver at the same time.

This receiver is designed for rc users who want to benefit from resilience and long range in their radio communications, typically tens of kilometers is achievable. TW GR8 receiver features an upgraded high-precision variometer that gives pilots a quick, accurate altitude and vertical speed data, and is ideal for any type of glider pilot.

The TW GR8 receiver is equipped with 2x 2.4G antennas. The signal output ports include one SBUS output channel and 8 PWM output channel ports. It also supports telemetry functions through FBUS / S.Port. By setting the TW GR6 to use FBUS protocol in the ETHOS system, the signal control and telemetry can be connected to any device that supports FBUS protocol through only one line to achieve bidirectional transmission, also simplifying the model build using fewer wires. In addition to all this, the inverted S.Port on the receiver can allow for easily connecting flight controllers.
