Attention: Do not fly in the rain! Moisture can enter the transmitter or receiver through seams, potentially causing unstable flight or loss of control. If flying in damp conditions is unavoidable (e.g., competitions), use a plastic bag or waterproof cover for your equipment. Never fly during thunderstorms.
R6DSM Basic Introduction
The RadioLink R6DSM is a 2.4GHz 10-channel receiver utilizing DSSS and FHSS dual spread spectrum technology for robust anti-interference performance. It is ideal for FPV drones and compatible with Radiolink AT9, AT9S (9-channel), and AT10, AT10II (10-channel) transmitters. Its ultra-lightweight design (1.5g) makes it a top choice for performance-oriented aircraft.

Applicable Transmitter Models
This receiver is compatible with the following Radiolink transmitters:
- AT9, AT9S (9-channel transmitters)
- AT10, AT10II (10-channel transmitters)
Signal Output Type
The R6DSM can output either 10-channel SBUS or PPM signals.
- Receiver indicator light is blue: Outputs 10-channel SBUS signal.
- Receiver indicator light is red: Outputs 10-channel PPM signal.
Signal Switching
To switch between SBUS and PPM signal modes, briefly press the (ID SET) switch on the side of the receiver twice within one second.
Technical Parameters
- Channels: 10 Channels
- Output Signal: SBUS/PPM
- Working Voltage: 4.8-6V
- Working Current: 38-45mA (at 5V input)
- Dimensions: 15*13 MM
- Weight: 1.5g
- Resolution: 4096 steps, 0.25us per step, ensuring precise and stable servo control.
- Range: Approximately 600 meters. Actual control range may vary depending on the flight environment.
Binding
Each transmitter has a unique ID code. Before first use, the receiver must be bound to the transmitter. Once bound, the ID code is stored in the receiver, and re-binding is not necessary unless you purchase a new R6DSM receiver.
- Place the transmitter and receiver together, within one meter of each other.
- Turn on the transmitter's power switch. The R6DSM receiver will search for the nearest compatible remote control and attempt to bind.
- Press and hold the (ID SET) switch on the side of the receiver for more than 1 second. The LED indicator will flash, indicating the start of the binding process.
- When the indicator light stops flashing, binding is complete.
- Verify that your servos respond correctly to the transmitter's commands.
Note: If the receiver and transmitter are powered on but not yet successfully bound, or if the receiver loses signal during flight, the receiver's indicator light will flash slowly.
Receiver Antenna Installation
Proper antenna placement is crucial for optimal signal reception and control range.
- Keep the antenna as straight as possible. Bending it may reduce effective control range.
- For large models that may have metallic or carbon fiber components that can interfere with signal transmission, position the antenna on the sides of the model. This ensures a strong signal regardless of the aircraft's orientation.
- Keep the antenna at least half an inch (approx. 1.27 cm) away from metal conductors and carbon fiber structures. Avoid excessive bending.
- Position the antenna away from potential sources of interference such as the motor, Electronic Speed Controller (ESC), and other electronic components.
- Consider using foam or rubber padding to secure and protect the antenna from vibration.
- The receiver contains sensitive electronic components. Handle it with care to avoid strong impacts or exposure to high temperatures.
- To protect the receiver, wrap it with R/C dedicated foam or rubber padding. To prevent moisture ingress, place the receiver in a plastic bag and seal it securely. Moisture can cause intermittent control loss or complete failure. A plastic bag also helps prevent fuel or debris from entering the receiver.
Warning: After completing the binding procedure, turn off and then turn on the transmitter. This ensures the settings are applied and confirms the receiver is properly connected and under the transmitter's control. Do not perform the binding procedure while the motor is connected to the ESC or while the engine is running, as this could lead to serious injury.
