The Futaba R404SBS‑E is a compact, lightweight 4‑channel telemetry receiver built for use with Futaba surface transmitters that support the F‑4G protocol. It offers high‑speed, low‑latency control and robust signal reliability for electric‑powered car applications. Featuring S.Bus2 digital connectivity and built‑in telemetry support, it enables real‑time data feedback from compatible sensors to the transmitter for enhanced performance monitoring and tuning. It is optimized specifically for electric cars and should not be used in gas‑powered models.
Features
Four‑channel 2.4 GHz telemetry receiver for surface vehicles
High‑speed F‑4G communication system for fast and stable control response
Supports T‑FHSS and SR (Super Response) modes for interference‑resistant signal transmission
S.Bus2 digital output for connecting multiple servos and sensors using a single cable
Built‑in telemetry support allows real‑time data (such as voltage, temperature, RPM, etc.) to be sent back to the transmitter when used with compatible Futaba sensors
Compact and lightweight design (approx. 25.5 × 20.7 × 10.6 mm, ~5.7 g) ideal for tight installations
Operating voltage range DC 3.7 V – 7.4 V for flexible ESC or BEC power options
Internal antenna simplifies installation without external wires
Compatible with numerous Futaba telemetry sensors over S.Bus2 (e.g., voltage, temp, RPM, GPS with appropriate modules)
Designed exclusively for electric powered (EP) cars — not for gas/nitro models
SR mode servos must be used when SR mode is enabled; normal servos may cause signal issues in that mode
