RadioLink RLR8EF 8-channel receiver
The RadioLink RLR8EF is a compact 8-channel 2.4 GHz receiver for RC models where a stable signal, low weight and flexible signal output matter. It supports SBUS, PPM and PWM, which makes it useful in several types of installations.
With FHSS spread spectrum technology, 67-channel pseudorandom frequency hopping and a range of up to 2000 metres in the air under optimal conditions, the RLR8EF is a strong choice for airborne, ground-based and water-based RC models alike.

Stable control with a range of up to 2000 metres
The RLR8EF uses FHSS spread spectrum technology and 67-channel pseudorandom frequency hopping to reduce signal interference and deliver stable control. The technology contributes to strong interference resistance and reliable signal transmission across different RC installations.
The range is specified at up to 2000 metres in the air. The maximum range is tested in open areas without interference and may vary depending on the model, installation, antenna placement, surroundings and local regulations.
Support for SBUS, PPM and PWM
The RadioLink RLR8EF supports SBUS, PPM and PWM. SBUS/PPM and PWM can be used simultaneously, which makes the receiver flexible for both simpler RC models and installations where several signal types are needed.
It can be used in several different model types, including helicopter, aeroplane, glider, multicopter, car, boat and robot.
Low jitter and high resolution
The RLR8EF has 4096-step channel resolution with 0.25 µs per section. The maximum PWM jitter is stated at 1.84 µs, with a standard value of 0.5 µs, which contributes to smooth and precise control.
Compact receiver for many models
With a size of 41.5 x 21.5 x 11.5 mm and a weight of just 7 g, the RLR8EF is easy to fit in many types of RC models. The compact format makes it practical for flying models, multirotors, cars, boats and robot projects alike.
