What is S.BUS?
Unlike conventional radio control systems, the S.BUS system
uses data communication to transmit control signals from a
receiver to a servo, gyro, or other S.BUS compatible device.
This data includes commands such as “move the channel 3
servo to 15 degrees, move the channel 5 servo to 30 degrees”
to multiple devices. The S.BUS devices execute only those
commands for their own set channel. For this reason, it can
be used by connecting multiple servos to the same signal
line.
