The SBS-01G is a sensor that calculates distance and speed from GPS. It is not recommended for indoor flying and may not detect the flight posture of a model. This sensor calculates altitude based on atmospheric pressure, but changes in atmospheric pressure can affect the accuracy of the display. It takes some time for the GPS positioning to be established, and during this time, the model should not be moved. The sensor should not be installed where it can be directly exposed to wind or airflow, in a sealed location where atmospheric pressure does not change, or where objects that interfere with electromagnetic waves are above the sensor (such as metal or carbon). It is not recommended for indoor flying and should not be placed in a sealed location. The altitude/height displayed starts from 0m when the power is turned on and shows the change from that point. Even if the altitude of your airfield is high, it will start at 0m and calculate the altitude difference.
The Futaba SBS-01G is a GPS sensor designed for use with telemetry systems that offer an S.BUS2 port. It computes relative distance and speed from GPS signals and calculates altitude based on atmospheric pressure changes. The device is intended for outdoor use in R/C models to display flight data.
| Range (Speed) | About 0km/h~500km/h (~311mph) |
|---|---|
| Range (Altitude) | About -700m~5,500m (-766yard~6015yard) |
| Range (Vario meter) | About -150m/s~+150m/s (-336mph~+336mph) |
| Length | 175mm |
| Weight | 11g |
| Voltage | DC 3.7V ～7.4V |
The sensor must be connected to the S.BUS2 port of a telemetry-enabled receiver.
No, it is not recommended for indoor flying environments.
An exact altitude display cannot be performed if atmospheric pressure changes due to weather conditions.
