Anyone useing futaba radio and sbus receiver able to help me out? Im having a hell of a time. Im not getting any stick inputs to be received. Plugged into the RCin port. Receiver powers up and I know it works as I can plug a servo into it directly. I have tried 7003 and 7008 receivers. This is the stuff that makes me think about DJI controllers. 
:D I feel like I am missing something simple.

Thanks Ultrafuge. That is one thing I didnt see mentioned anywhere: the whole 12 vs 18 chan. Ill try 18 channel and see. I also found where guys had issues using fassttest vs fasst so I ordered a fasst receiver lastnight to see how that goes. For sure using just SBUS and not SBUS2.
If you use a T14SG in 14-channel mode there is no SBUS-problem using R7008SB !
People who use SBUS-2 or channel-12 mode on T14SG should start reading manuals etc.
I have read I think all of those threads. It all appears to be firmware related and I am on the latest one now. I assumed the issues were solved. its just weird. I have never had issues with sbus before.
Hello,
If you google "R7008SB pixhawk" you will find old information with your same problem.
I have a 18SZ (had a 14SG) and I do not use R7008 or 3 sBus2 receivers on my multicopters, but R6202SBW or R6303SB. I have telemetry via 3DR radio.
Problem is (was?) firmware related. Pay attention to use RC in plug on the PixHawk (the first plug), SB is sBus Out.

Marc, Being new to pixhawk, I am not sure what card it is. I bought it from Jordi at Mrobotics. IM pretty sure its pixhawk and not just APM. My receivers are both configured for sbsus as I have used both of them on my helicopters.
? What is your Arducopter card ?
No sBus in with APM, only PPM
?? Is sBus Rx mode configured ??
See Futaba Rx user manual for that,
