Servo signal goes on top than red than back. So white or yellow from the top of the box. Futuba stuff you can orientate yourself with the little extra notch the servos plugs or sockets have. So the first wire closest to the notch i the servos signal .

I went with a SBUS receiver and never looked back. 1/4 the size compared to 6014, and only 1 wire to connect.

Does one of you know it there any range difference between these two receivers. I got the info somewhere but can't find it anymore that the R6203SB is for park flying so i didn't want to use it after i bought it.

Hi Boris,

The R6203SB is a full range RX featuring the standard dual coaxial antennas

R6203SB 2.4GHz FASST™ S.Bus Receiver
The new R6203SB marks the third S.Bus capable receiver released by Futaba to date. The first two being the R6108SB and R6208SB High Voltage. The good news is this new smaller RX does not lose much compared to it’s 8ch siblings. The R6203SB is a full range RX featuring the standard dual coaxial antennas. The key feature is the form factor, only 22×37x9mm in size. This RX features 3 normal PWM channels and one S.Bus connection. As with all other S.Bus RX this one connection allows you to connection up to 18 (16+2) servos. Last but not least, the “2″ in the part number signifies this RX is also capable of 8.4V power systems (i.e. direct 2S LiPo).

Here is a photo of my install with Futaba 6202SBW receiver. Notice there is only one wire between the receiver and the MC. This receiver is similar to the R6203SB, except it has two SBUS ports instead of one. I've been using these on my helicopters with great success.

I have the dji naza with the futaba R6208SB receiver. What cable do I need to connect the receiver to the naza with sbus/dbus. All I have is a weird wire with 3 ends and a switch in the middle. I bought the receiver with the 8FGs transmitter. I'm relatively new to the rc world so any advice would be most appreciated.

Just a standard male to male servo wire. Not all hobby shops have them, but if you are handy with soldering iron, just buy two male leads and solder them together.

elorest, no it isn't a special cable for subs, just a standard servo cable, three wire black red yellow/white.

Patkazh, the components of the WKM are connected to each other via can bus. It docent matter were are how they are connected as long as they a in the can bus change.

S-bus is the way to go.. the 3ch s-bus receiver is cheap. Simple wiring and no need for anything larger.

How about the FR-Sky receivers? are any of them (TFRSP, TFR8SB) fully s-bus compatible? They are about half the price of the Futaba R6203SB - although i don't want to risk my quad to save 20-30$....
 

Don't have any experiance with these.. the R6203SB is about $70 in the US.. Don't want to save a few $$ and loss even more $$.. I set of Graupner blades will cost more than "money saved" assuming no other damaged to the machine. After the crash, most likely will still need to buy a R6203SB anyway... :-o)

Thats cool to know about the 3 chan working fine. The 8 channel came with my transmitter but for future projects this is a great idea. Also mitsaras it looks like FR-Sky TFR8SB receiver is sbus compatible. While I wouldn't want to trust it to keep $2-3k in the air its nice to have options for smaller projects.
