Neither like other FrSky 2.4G receivers nor 868M receivers,the Tandem dual-band series receivers work simultaneously at both 868M and 2.4G frequencies that means it can give not only low latency signal control but long control range with an enhanced level of high reliability and anti-interference performance.
The Tandem series receivers adopt the triple antenna design that can give the multi-directional coverage as wide as possible for the remote signal. The 868M antenna comes with a newly designed small form factor, but it has the equivalent high-performance as the original 868M antenna.
The data (Power & Signal related) under unusual status during the flight can be recorded by Tandem receivers through a built-in black box module, and TD R18 can additionally save the complete and long-term data (Control & Flight Attitude data log, etc.) by SD card through the external module. TD R18 also provides a socket that can be used to connect the switch panel/NFC Switch panel to enable the built-in Power Switch function.
The configurable 18 channel ports are a big feature of TD R18, each channel port can be assigned as PWM, SBUS, FBUS, or S.Port. With the FBUS protocol, the Tandem series receivers can open up the possibility of seamlessly pairing with multiple telemetry devices (Neuron ESC, Advance Sensors, etc.) as well as simplifying the builds setup.
