Description:

• It's finally here, the iFlight Commando 8 with fully integrated iFlight ExpressLRS hardware! No additional external module necessary to run ELRS. If you're planning to run another TX module, please checkout the optional add-on external module bay.

• ExpressLRS TX modules developed in close cooperation with the ExpressLRS Team with firmware targets already released.

HIGHLIGHTS

• Internal iFlight ExpressLRS (ELRS) transmitter (additional fan for cooling)

• Market's lowest crystal frequency deviation (low packet loss, high frequency stability)

• Highest quality digital hall sensor gimbals for maximum precision

• High-performance PCB Single and Dual Band (900/2400MHz) radio antenna

• Inbuilt 4000mAh for up to 20h power (2x 2000mAh 18650 batteries)

• Stock EdgeTX firmware with pre-installed Lua scripts

• Several Gimbal Stick Ends available (stock 18mm)

PERFORMANCE AND COMPATIBILITY

• Please use iFlight ELRS receivers coupled with our transmitter for maximum performance! We've probably achieved market's best crystal frequency stability at a very low frequency deviation (only 11KHz in total at 51.99976MHz on the crystal). Please checkout this article for further information https://github.com/ExpressLRS/ExpressLRS/wiki/Crystal-Oscillator-(XO)-Frequency-Error

BAND OPTIONS

• The 900MHz as well as 2400MHz band have outstanding performance and long range capabilities. If you're not sure what to get, please checkout the official ELRS Long Range Competition to see what has been achieved. https://www.expresslrs.org/2.0/info/long-range/

• What can I expect? Due to local regulations, the 915MHz FCC region seems to have a better performance than the 868MHz EU region. The 2400MHz band works great in any region, has a higher packet rate up to 500hz. This is not a common 2400MHz protocol and cannot be compared to anything prior on the market.

ELRS ONLY OPTION (Single TX)

• Single ELRS option includes 1x ELRS TX module (please select band) pre-installed in the back of the radio

• Cooling fan is inside the flat back cover

• Single Band or Dual Band antenna option (for future upgrades or module changes)

• Dual Band antenna option for convenient multi band use without changing the antenna

ELRS + CC2500 MPM OPTION (Dual TX)

• The Dual TX option has two inbuilt transmitter PCBs

• 1x ELRS TX module (please select band) and 1x CC2500 MPM module pre-installed in the back of the radio

• The CC2500 is a 2400MHz Multi Protocol Chipset for Futaba S-FHSS/Frsky D16/Frsky D8

• Both modules can not be activated simultaneously but are using the same antenna

• Dual Band antenna option for convenient multi band use without changing the antenna

• Example Dual Band: 900MHz ELRS + CC2500 2400MHz // Example Single Band: 2400MHz ELRS + CC2500 2400MH

• The dual TX option has a raised backplate to make room for the fan

Antenna Options:
