I fly fixed wing, helicopters, and quadcopters. Why wouldn't I come here to learn and grow? Are guys who fly quads only into quads and guys who fly fixed wings only into fixed wings? If that's true for some, that's totally fine. But why would anyone assume that?

@JoshuaBardwell 3 года назад

The updated segments are the entire ELRS segment at 27:45 and a note about ACCESS receiver at 10:46. Regarding the comparison between Tracer and ELRS at around 28:47, the reason Tracer has much shorter range is that it's using FLRC modulation instead of LoRa modulation like ELRS. The tradeoff is that Tracer has full telemetry, while ELRS has only rudimentary telemetry (vBat, LQ, and RSSI). The claim that ELRS has superior range and latency is not just based on this one test, which I pulled from Wez's YT as an example, and to demonstrate that the claims are based on real flight testing not just theory. Wez has done tons of apples-to-apples comparisons between ELRS and other protocols, and ELRS wins every time. However, if you need full telemetry for features like Betaflight Lua scripts or MAVLINK, ExpressLRS is not the best solution (today).

@alxgag3 3 года назад

Thanks for the update :) For me ExpressLRS is a winner as I get superior range as well as I can stay within the 25mW rules in Europe and recycle my R9 equipment :)

@J2_P 3 года назад

I would have saved about $200 on FrSky RX's that I either broke, or were outdated and I didn't know because I was new and just desperate to get in the air (like my XM+ and my R9 and my RX6R). I installed an Archer RS recently and wish that I had just bought a CRSF Nano instead.

I like using the R9Stab 900mc. stabilized receiver with the 2019 module flashed with ACCST firmware . I use the old R9M module with the R9 mini and slim. It does work with the right legacy firmware . It works well for me and allows me to use SmartPort sensors to see each battery cell which I insist on.

@mr-huggy 3 года назад

A couple of bits that you have missed with the TBS products. One is that they can talk to each other transmitter to receiver to VTX to Fusion enabling dynamic control, OSD and been able to update not only the receiver over the air but also the VTX. That's one of the biggest benefit's of TBS products. Another one is TBS also does PWM from 4, 6 and 8 channels through a simple adaptor boards for both Crossfire and Tracer. ImmersionRC Ghost is supposed to be getting a similar eco system to TBS, the orca goggles have a slot of a Ghost receiver for instance, but not much has been heard about it since. ELRS looks to becoming a great system for the future.

@PineyJustice 3 года назад

Also Joshua, I saw you left a comment that the performance is very similar, this is because all of these systems use nearly identical hardware, on the tx it's a 250-1000mw transceiver with a semtech sx12xx chip and a stm32fx chip and the receivers are a semtech sx12xx along with an stm32f0 processor and minimal supporting circuit. The only meaningful differences between them are firmware and operating frequency.

Thanks a lot - that makes my decision much more easier for my long range (ELRS-) plans and as you wrote in the comments of the 'old' video the r9-modules will work not only in frsky TX when ELRS is flashed to it . Especially because I'm a friend of FLOSS and fortunately I've got no problems with soldering ;) What about a VTX comparisson in the same manner?

To be clear, the R9 ACCESS firmware only works in Frsky radios. You can flash ACCST firmware to the R9 module and it will work in 3rd party radios, or you can flash ELRS and it will work. The ACCST firmware for R9 has not been updated since approximately Feb 2020, so it feels like FrSky has sort of abandoned it, and that's why I didn't discuss it much in this video.

@@JoshuaBardwell Yes, that's pretty clear. But why in hell should I use ACCST when ELRS is a free and open protocol that allows a much greater range 🤔

@TheJoker6789 2 года назад

Well damn frsky for the new protocol and added confusion. I was just loosing interest in flying camera drones a little bit. Then I got the best deal ever on a open box dji fpv combo. Instantly had brand new stronger than ever desire to fly. 41 stars in the dji simulator, a slightly overpriced tiny hawk three kit. A digiadapter and rapid-fire module because I couldn't see withthe tinyhawk goggles. moblite 7 being delivered tomorrow. Already have what seems to be never-ending plans to buy more stuff now. Heeeeeelp I can't stop now. I just want to freestyle and learn to fly better in acro mode with higher rates. Oh yeah bought a racing gate the other day too. Probably going to have to get a bunch more of them.

you know how you had to mod your taranis qx7 with that tbs mod so ur response time was lower? do i need same mod for the tracer?

@kinghuynh2725 2 года назад

So I've been having issues with my R-XSR reciever with my qx7. Im done dealing with the issues, should I go for crossfire for easy uses and better quality. I fly alone so I'm not worried bout interference with others. Is TBS crossfire easier to work with than 2.4 ACCST and should I switch?

Hi 10x for the video What is the best penetration in your opinion considering for real estate shooting and small 2.5inch drones

I have an old first edition frsky x9+ with R9 access module (flashed on accst firmware tho) and your video just made me wonder about going ExpressLRS. Password for bind ? Finally evolutions in FPV. And open source + cheap hardware support... Dayum brilliant future for this newcomer
