ACUVANCE S.BUS–TAO III Auto Link Adapter – OP-15123 / 60686

Simplify ESC tuning and transmitter communication with the ACUVANCE S.BUS–TAO III Auto Link Adapter – OP-15123 / 60686.

This adapter combines the standard functions of an ACUVANCE S.BUS adapter with a dedicated connection for the TAO III Smart Access Drive Effector, allowing you to keep TAO III connected while still using S.BUS communication through a compatible Futaba radio system.

That means you can avoid repeatedly unplugging and reconnecting the small ESC LINK cable when switching between transmitter-based tuning and TAO III programming.

The LINK-side cable is removable, allowing cable length to be changed to suit your chassis layout using compatible ACUVANCE RX cables.

Important Firmware Note

The OP-15123 uses dedicated firmware that includes TAO III link-control programming.

Do not install standard S.BUS adapter firmware intended only for other adapters, because doing so can disable the TAO III link function until the correct OP-15123 firmware is restored.
