You can, but you need to program the decoders. You can either do it with the usb dongle or I believe some of the new Futaba TX can do it now.
>So reading all this makes it even more confusing cause as i got it right, no one is recomending straight S-Bus use cause of the cable's will probably fail due to high current?
This has been one argument against however have 2 sbus ports to remove the single point of failure seems a good solution to ease modelers minds.
>And what about the Turbine ECU??? will it acept beeing hooked up to an S-bus decoder or hub??
I believe you can treat as a regular servo so you use a SBD-1 decoder. However most hook to ch3 on an rx which is the normal old fashioned pwm signaling parallel port.
>I just want to make an symple as posible S-Bus set up to start with.
Using any of the 8ch rx, you can put 8 on the parallel servo drivers ports and remaining on sbus SBD-1 decoders including batteries.
You do not need to buy sbus servos. The disadvantage of the SBD-1 decoders is some extra wire length you have to deal with since the SBD-1 dont come with short leads.
