I just finished Installing an orange 8CH Fasst RX in my phantom to use with my T10CHG. The Phantom 2.4 is ok but I missed the feel of my Futaba! I had to watch a couple YouTube videos to get me through it. The servo wire that plugs into the x3 of the Naza is what powers the Naza and RX. The rest is pretty much straight forward. Then figuring out the OrangeRX fail safe took me a while but once I found out I needed to set it up through the RX and not the Futaba it was no problem. I've flown these Orange RX now for a couple years and get a better range then my Futaba 14Ch. You can't beat diversity RX dual antennas! I tested it out and all works great including the FS RTH. I'll post some pics of the Instal after work is anyone is interested. The orange RX sits very nice right on top of the stock RX hole. I added a little Velcro to make sure it stays put. I ran the two antenna out the leg ports and down the skids. I'm waiting for my FPV gear to arrive so I can test out the range. I'd be completely satisfied with 1 mile LOS. I don't fly 1 mile out but I do FPV and like to drop in under tree lines and trails and if I can get 1 mile LOS I shouldn't have a problem with 1/4 mile with obstructions, well so I hope. :
