2. Introduction The Evolution transmitter and TGY—iA6C receiver constitutes a 2.4GHz AFHDS 2A digital proportional computerized R/C system. This system supports quadcopters. 2.1 System Features The AFHDS 2A (Automatic Frequency Hopping Digital System Second Generation) is specially developed for all radio control models. Offering superior protection against interference while maintaining lower power consumption and high reliable receiver sensitivity, the AFHDS technology is considered to be one of the leaders in the RC market today. Bidirectional Communication Capable of sending and receiving data, each transmitteris capable of receiving data from temperature, altitude and many other types of sensors, servo calibration and i—BUS / S—BUS Support. Multi—channel Hopping Frequency fho 0f "“.\ This systems bandwidth ranges from 2.408GHz to 2475GHz. This band is divided in 0| 135 channels. Each transmitter hops between 16 channels (32 for Japanese and Korean versions) in order to reduce interference from othertransmitters. Omni—directional Gain Antenna The high efficiency Omni—directional high gain antenna cuts down on interference, while using less power and maintaining a strong reliable connection. Unique ID Recognition System Each transmitter and receiver hasit‘s own unique ID. Once the transmitter and receiver have been paired, they will only communicate with each other, preventing other systems accidentally connecting to or interfering with the systems operation. Low Power Consumption The system is built using highly sensitive low power consumption components, maintaining high receiver sensitivity, while consuming aslittle as one tenth the power of a standard FM system, dramatically extending batterylife.
