ARCHER PLUS R12+ | SR12+ Receiver

Introduction

The Archer line of receivers has been enhanced further with the addition of the new Archer Plus Series.

The Archer Plus series receivers include some new features. Firstly an enhanced anti-RF-Interference capability

can offer a more solid RF performance, and this is in addition to existing anti-interfere performance in the spark

ignition process. These Plus series receivers are also with both ACCESS and ACCST D16 modes, where the RF

protocol is smart matched during the binding process on the radio. With the Black-Box function, some basic flight

data (like Power & Signal related) can be well preserved.

The R12+ | SR12+ receivers have 12 configurable channel ports*, each channel port can be assigned as PWM,

SBUS, FBUS, or . The R12+ | SR12+ supports full-range signal strength with dual detachable antennas

and guarantees optimal antenna reception and range. The R12+ | SR12+ can be used as a Primary receiver in a

redundant solution by setting a port (Channel Port 1) as SBUS In and connecting to any other FrSky receiver

equipped with an SBUS Out port. With the FBUS protocol, the Archer Plus series receivers can open up the

possibility of seamlessly pairing with multiple telemetry devices (XACT servos, ADV Sensors, etc.) as well as

simplifying the builds setup.

The R12+ | SR12+ also provides a socket that can be used to connect the switch panel to enable the built-in

Power Switch function, and it uses a set of standard XT30 plugs which also provides a safe and efficient way to

provide power. By utilizing together with current overload wires on the channel ports, the connected device can

be safeguarded.

The Archer Plus SR12+ are gyro-stabilized receivers with a built-in 3-axis gyroscope and 3-axis accelerometer

and feature multiple flight modes (Auto-level, Stabilization, Knife-Edge, etc.). The stabilization mode has been

enhanced with 5 additional stabilization channels, providing pin mapping to each channel in the multiple flight

modes.

(*Some features require the support of ACCESS and ETHOS.)

1. When Delta wing/Flying wing is selected, the signal produced by the transmitter should be without active mixes

on the channels related to AIL and ELE. Archer Plus SR12+ will mix the AIL (CH1) and ELE (CH2) input signal

with a fixed mix percentage automatically.

2. When V-tail type is selected, the signal produced by the transmitter should be without active mixes on the

channels related to ELE and RUD. Archer Plus SR12+ will mix the ELE (CH2) and RUD (CH4) input signal with

a fixed mix percentage automatically.

Stabilization: When the model is activated, Archer Plus SR12+ will compensate with external forces (wind) as

soon as receiving commands from the transmitter. This function is used to enhance the stability of the model on

three axis (Pitch, Roll, YAW). CH13 could be used to adjust gyro gain by assigning a knob or a slider, changing

the sensitivity of the counteracting signal produced by the internal three-axis gyroscope.

Automatic level: When the mode is activated, Archer Plus SR12+ will make the model return to level orientation

with internal three-axis accelerometer and three-axis gyroscope on AIL and ELE channels after the sticks being

released to neutral. RUD channel works in stabilization mode only.

Hover: When the mode is activated, Archer Plus SR12+ will make the nose of the model straight up with internal

three-axis accelerometer and three-axis gyroscope on RUD and ELE channels (ELE and RUD inputs are not

required). Under this mode, AIL is used to control the rotation of the model and THR adjust the altitude. AIL

channel works in stabilization mode only.

Knife-egde mode: When the mode is activated, Archer Plus SR12+ will roll the plane on a certain side (wing

points up) with internal three-axis accelerometer and three-axis gyroscope on RUD and AIL , AIL

inputs are not required. While the mode steering is done with ELE, altitude will be maintained with THR/RUD. ELE

channel operates in stabilization mode only.

Off: When the mode is activated, Archer Plus SR12+ will transmit the received commands produced by the

transmitter to the model without compensating.

How to Switch High PWM Speed mode

1. The factory default setting is OFF .

2. To go to the receiver [Options], select On to active high speed mode .

Warning: High PWM speed mode is only applied for digital servos. Turn off High PWM Speed mode

when using analog servo, otherwise servos will get hot and may burn out.

Range Check

A pre-flight range check should be done before every flight, in case the signal loss is caused by the reflection of

the signal by the nearby metal fence or concrete, and the shading of the signal by buildings or trees during the

actual flight.

1. Place the model at least 60 cm (2 feet) above the non-metal contaminated ground (such as on a wooden

bench). The receiving antenna should be in a vertical position.

2. Ener the ETHOS system, move to the "RF System", scroll the Encoder to select "RANGE" mode and press

Encoder. In range check mode, the effective distance will be decreased to 1/30.

How to set Failsafe

There are 3 failsafe modes when the setting is enabled: No Pulse, Hold, and Custom mode.

● No Pulses Mode: On loss of signal, the receiver produces no pulses on any pwm channel. To use this mode,

select it in the menu and wait 9 seconds for the failsafe to take effect.

● Hold Mode: The receiver continues to output the last positions before the signal was lost. To use this mode,

select it in the menu and wait 9 seconds for the failsafe to take effect.

● Custom Mode: Pre-set to required positions on the lost signal. Move the cursor to the failsafe mode of the

channel and press Encoder, then choose the Custom mode. Move the cursor to the channel you want to set

failsafe On and press Encoder. Then rotate the Encoder to set your failsafe for each channel and short-press

the Encoder to finish the setting. Wait 9 seconds for the failsafe to take effect.

ARCHER PLUS R12+ | SR12+ Receiver

1. When Delta wing/Flying wing is selected, the signal produced by the transmitter should be without active mixes

on the channels related to AIL and ELE. Archer Plus SR12+ will mix the AIL (CH1) and ELE (CH2) input signal

with a fixed mix percentage automatically.

2. When V-tail type is selected, the signal produced by the transmitter should be without active mixes on the

channels related to ELE and RUD. Archer Plus SR12+ will mix the ELE (CH2) and RUD (CH4) input signal with

a fixed mix percentage automatically.

Stabilization: When the model is activated, Archer Plus SR12+ will compensate with external forces (wind) as

soon as receiving commands from the transmitter. This function is used to enhance the stability of the model on

three axis (Pitch, Roll, YAW). CH13 could be used to adjust gyro gain by assigning a knob or a slider, changing

the sensitivity of the counteracting signal produced by the internal three-axis gyroscope.

Automatic level: When the mode is activated, Archer Plus SR12+ will make the model return to level orientation

with internal three-axis accelerometer and three-axis gyroscope on AIL and ELE channels after the sticks being

released to neutral. RUD channel works in stabilization mode only.

Hover: When the mode is activated, Archer Plus SR12+ will make the nose of the model straight up with internal

three-axis accelerometer and three-axis gyroscope on RUD and ELE channels (ELE and RUD inputs are not

required). Under this mode, AIL is used to control the rotation of the model and THR adjust the altitude. AIL

channel works in stabilization mode only.

Knife-egde mode: When the mode is activated, Archer Plus SR12+ will roll the plane on a certain side (wing

points up) with internal three-axis accelerometer and three-axis gyroscope on RUD and AIL , AIL

inputs are not required. While the mode steering is done with ELE, altitude will be maintained with THR/RUD. ELE

channel operates in stabilization mode only.

Off: When the mode is activated, Archer Plus SR12+ will transmit the received commands produced by the

transmitter to the model without compensating.

How to Switch High PWM Speed mode

1. The factory default setting is OFF .

2. To go to the receiver [Options], select On to active high speed mode .

Warning: High PWM speed mode is only applied for digital servos. Turn off High PWM Speed mode

when using analog servo, otherwise servos will get hot and may burn out.

About OTA function

Go to the [File manager], and select the FW, press the enter button, select [Flash RX by ]. Power on the

receiver, select the RX, go to the [ENTER], complete the flash process, the transmitter will display [Success].

Wait for 3 seconds, the receiver works properly at the moment.

Note: Please do not do the binding operation in the near range while the firmware upgrading in progress.

Note: Update the firmware after the receiver getting registered (OTA).

Range Check

A pre-flight range check should be done before every flight, in case the signal loss is caused by the reflection of

the signal by the nearby metal fence or concrete, and the shading of the signal by buildings or trees during the

actual flight.

1. Place the model at least 60 cm (2 feet) above the non-metal contaminated ground (such as on a wooden

bench). The receiving antenna should be in a vertical position.

2. Ener the ETHOS system, move to the "RF System", scroll the Encoder to select "RANGE" mode and press

Encoder. In range check mode, the effective distance will be decreased to 1/30.

How to set Failsafe

There are 3 failsafe modes when the setting is enabled: No Pulse, Hold, and Custom mode.

● No Pulses Mode: On loss of signal, the receiver produces no pulses on any pwm channel. To use this mode,

select it in the menu and wait 9 seconds for the failsafe to take effect.

● Hold Mode: The receiver continues to output the last positions before the signal was lost. To use this mode,

select it in the menu and wait 9 seconds for the failsafe to take effect.

● Custom Mode: Pre-set to required positions on the lost signal. Move the cursor to the failsafe mode of the

channel and press Encoder, then choose the Custom mode. Move the cursor to the channel you want to set

failsafe On and press Encoder. Then rotate the Encoder to set your failsafe for each channel and short-press

the Encoder to finish the setting. Wait 9 seconds for the failsafe to take effect.
