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)
