These features are amazing, great work expressLRS team! Also an excellent reminder for those who can to head over and donate whatever they can to do it - I just sent them $10. ELRS is saving me a good amount per-model and this dev work is worth it.
Does this mean that we can expect the Radiomaster Gemini module to be released soon? ... not that I don't have the betafpv module, already, of course.. but, you know - Radiomaster!!
I just want dual band gemini don't care who makes it but, I'd actually prefer Happymodel. They've always been good for me and they're the cheapest, plus they were the first company to believe in ELRS so I have a soft spot for them.
@@thirtythreeeyes8624 I'm actually not seeing any benefit to the dual band if the packet rate is locked at 150hz... why not just use 900mhz only, in that case. Mostly what I want is a quality gemini module with TCXOs.
I'm a very happy Happymodel ELRS user, since V2.0. I use their 1-watt module and EP2 receivers. Going to V3.0 was a big improvement in performance. Glad to see the binding situation is better sorted. Regardless the manufacturer, ELRS is as good as it gets.
Good morning Ian, i have a question..maybe off topic but still.. i installed an ER8 RX on my copter , and use the Yaapu script on my RM TX16S mk2, have my 6 flight modes under 2 switches, using MP as GCS..seems to work fine.. i'll take off in 'Stabilize' (MP tel's me the right flight modes..), but my Yaapu tel's me i am in 'ALTCTL' this goes on by every flight mode i choose, when i switch to POSHOLD, Yaapu tel's me i'm in ACRO mode, etc, etc, How can i change this? I've updated all the necessary things on my TX.. but still.. need some help with this.. Regards, Morris
Great info, just got back my boxer after being repaired (faulty module from factory -only took 4 months) Would like to see your walk thru follow-up. Thanks
wasn't sending packets on 900mhz and 2.4ghz a feature of crossfire and thats why it had such amazing range? seems like geminiX is following suit if I got that right
for real, as someone who is in the hobby i am forever grateful for the people who put this kinda crazy work into it and consistently making it a smoother and better experience
FINALLY! Easier Binding. I like being able to bind with the button on the receiver ... just like FrSky XM+.... Thank You. I also like the CRSF OTA option. Now we are getting somewhere. NO more binding phrase if we don't want to.
Why? Bind phrase is much easier than finding some tiny button somewhere on Rx inside the model. Frsky is XM+ crap. And I don't mention Frsky firmware mess
@@chorchecze All things are relative including crap. Might be for you, but not for me. I have never had any issues with the XM+. It just works and is fine for the distances (short) that I fly. I always bind my receivers BEFORE mounting them in the quad and don't bury them inside the craft. Placement is key, put it where you can reach it. I only have one that is integrated, still, not an issue.
@@buddyadkins2432 my bad. I just read the documentation. It said that when we don't specify binding phrase, it will just generate random value as the phrase. You can then bind using lua script, rx button, or betaflight configurator.
ExpressLRS devs are absolutely machines. I think we have seen more improvement to radio links in 5 years then the last 25, including the last two big changes when DSM arrived in mid 2000s, and open source transmitters. I am really curious to try the new 900/2.4 link when hardware becomes available.
Nice shoutout to the developers! I hope everyone if they can send a little money their way, ELRS is such an amazing system, I always have 100% trust in the system.
weird. all these fpv comments are under an Anton Petrov video about Venus I'm watching... I'm assuming these comments are meant to be under a MadsTech video, which is in my YT playlist. But I haven't played the MadsTech video yet. Strange.
Yup. Here's my comment, under MadsTech video. Commented the above from a completely different, and unrelated video. Strange, indeed. pretty cool about the new update though!
Is model matching the same. Because I run boats and boat flips over in the water. I have another boat to go get it. and they both bound the same radio.
ELRS didn't invent easy binding. Binding was easy before ELRS. they just took it away, and then gave it back again. I do love the Mavlink connectivity and increases in performance. Will be great for seeing Mavlink commands at distance. :) Great video, explains a lot. I think I'll wait for the new hardware.
What was easy on holding button on Rx and plugging a battery at same time? Put a Bind phrase into firmware from Configurator during update is much easier way to do it. Or over WiFi. No need to revert to that legacy button style binding for boomers
@@chorchecze so you want to use a computer push a button for you? and have a home wifi network, and all this stuff just so you don't tire out your finger? ha ha . Well now we can both have our way. Now wonder the newer generation is so helpless. Ever changed a car tire? or do you just get on an app and call a boomer to do it for you?
@@FPVREVIEWS No, I only not see a reason to do simple things more complicated. Everybody has a wifi at home today and outside you network, it will automatically fallback to wifi AP mode. And almost everybody have a smartphone to simply configure the gear. Passphrase/wifi updates was a great improvement, but most "boomers" didn't get it. Don't wanna to get my drones apart to access some stupid button 😀
@@chorchecze yea, well that is why they made the feature. It is good to have a way to do things with no access. By the way, when you say "everybody", you mean everybody of your age group, in your country, in your economic bracket or above. because only about half of the world's population have access to the internet.
@@chorchecze Can you please tell me who invented the internet, smart phone, etc etc etc that you rely on so much? Oh yea, it was people older than you who you despise. have a little respect.
For anyone whos looking into getting the betafpv gemini module. Its such a game changer. Its has the strongest rc link money can buy. Highly recommended! I set up the buttons on the back to increase rf power while im in the air. Im running a D250hz packet rate and with gemini it's putting out 8 repeat packets on 6 different frequencies. Needless to say the rc link is unmatched. My Lq doesnt move from 100. I fly the 03 air unit and am confident i can out fly the video link 5 times over.
