The Archer line of receivers has been enhanced further with the addition of the new Archer Plus Series.
The Archer Plus Series receivers include some new features. Firstly an enhanced anti-RF-Interference capability can offer a more solid RF performance, and this is in addition to existing anti-interfere performance in the spark ignition process. These Plus series receivers are also with both ACCESS and ACCST D16 modes, where the RF protocol is smart matched during the binding process on the radio. With the Black-Box function, some basic flight data (like Power & Signal related) can be well preserved.
The FRSKY ARCHER Plus GR8 has 8 high-precision PWM channel output and is ideal for any type of glider pilot. It features an upgraded high-precision variometer that gives pilots a quick, accurate altitude and vertical speed data. In addition to all this, the SBUS IN port on the GR6 can also be used as a redundancy receiver along with any other FrSky ACCESS/ACCST V2 (EU LBT & FCC) capable receiver equipped with an SBUS port. The best available signal will be used to ensure superior connectivity. With the FBUS protocol, the Archer Plus series receivers can open up the possibility of seamlessly pairing with multiple telemetry devices (XACT servos, ADV Sensors, etc.). This receiver also supports full-range signal strength with dual detachable antennas and guarantees optimal antenna reception and range.

Hi, it's not compatible with that radio. The radio needs to support either ACCST or ACCESS protocol.
What you need to know about 2.4G Radio Receivers:
It's hard to talk about radio transmitters without the name Frsky coming up. They are a name stay in the RC industry and even more so in the drone category. Known for rock-solid performance, ruggedness, and reliability of their radios, FrSky has become the go-to radio for many pilots around the world.
