Introduction
The Tandem dual-band receivers are unlike any other FrSky 2.4Ghz or 900Mhz receivers, they work simultaneously
at both 2.4Ghz and 900Mhz frequencies. That means Tandem receivers provide not only the low latency signal and
long-range control, but also benefit from the enhanced level of high reliability and anti-interference performance.
The Tandem series receivers adopt a dual-band antenna design (one 2.4GHz & one 900MHz) that provides
multi-directional wide coverage for the remote signal. The data (Power & Signal related) under unusual status during
the flight can be recorded by Tandem receivers through a built-in black box module.
The TD R6 receiver has 6 high-precision PWM channel outputs bundled in a compact lightweight design,and it also
has ports like SBUS OUT and S.Port on board. By setting the S.Port to 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 build setup.

NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant
to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interfer-
ence in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses and can radiate transmitter frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to transmitter
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to transmitter or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced transmitter/TV technician for help.
Failsafe
Failsafe is a useful feature which is for a preset channel output position whenever control signal is lost for a period.
Follow the steps to set Failsafe for channels necessary:
Failsafe for receiver supporting TANDEM can be set via transmitter interface, which support no pulse, hold and
custom three modes for each channel.
For TANDEM X20 as an example, turn on the transmitter, go to: MODEL SETUP/Internal RF/Failsafe.
