How To Buy Your FIRST FPV Controller (March 2023) 

Thanks for watching!

Thank you!

Glad to help

Thanks 👍

Absolutely agree on the Boxer!

All I did was remove the UFL to SMA connector and put a 2.4ghz antenna from a receiver in.

So what will you do once you want to use ELRS or Crossfire?

@@DarrenAllatt No plans for that. Will just buy one more radio if I need thoose protocolls. Very little money and supervalue with Radiomaster.

Still for sale and how much?

@@glidechampion9589 if you're in Aus you can have it for $150

I just got the tango 2 pro what is the difference?

Boxer is smaller than TX16S.. It comes with one you screw on. What I mean is an antenna that’s inside the radio not outside of it

No I haven’t, I’m not sure that would be an interesting or a long video though..

@@DarrenAllatt I would be interested in a video about that too.

And there is an internal elrs module for the xlite.

@@Raven187FPV It is possible to flash the stock main board with elrs but it is complicated! For new pilots it's preferred to buy an external elrs module and you will be fine!

Where is the internal ELRS module for the XLite

Yes, for a couple of reasons. It’s frsky, and while they make great hardware they do have a reputation of being unfriendly towards users. It’s also not something beginner pilots will be looking at, so not worth including.

@@DarrenAllatt Sorry mate, from personal experience, Frsky is way better than BETA FPV.

Hot glue is easier to remove though as it just comes off when you put pressure on it. I may do a 3D print instead

@@DarrenAllatt That is a good point, and it is much quicker to dry and set than both Threebond and Sugru

You and I both have no idea why the Zorro wasnt made with 18650's

@@DarrenAllatt i just wish they would do a v2 to fix that, i still use mine as a daily, but would buy a revised zorro in a heartbeat if they fixed that one issue, but would love the better aluminum gimbals too, that would be perfection for me, 1w would be a bonus

The Tango2 can’t get the most out of ELRS (or Tracer) because it can only handle 250hz packet rate. Which is more than enough anyway. Zorro is 250mw of output power, so you may need an external module anyway depending on your flying. I’d ad a module to the tango2 at first and see how you find ELRS because going for a dedicated radio

@@DarrenAllatt Great, thanks for the advice!

Jumper didn’t send me one, not sure I will buy one for the point of reviewing it. Just looking at it, probably as good as the Boxer with the exception of the screen. T20 has a tiny screen same as the T-Pro and T-Lite, so that’s a missed opportunity

Installing inside which radio?

@@DarrenAllatt jumper t lite

the stock 2.4ghz antenna is more than enough

18350 batteries are the problem, 2.5 hours of battery life is the Achilles heel. Max edition is nice, but I don’t want to think about my radios battery when flying.

@@DarrenAllatt yeah sure. I agree with you. Thank you.

RX Loss is common with Frsky because it has poor range & penetration. Whoops using frsky don’t have the best range. You just need to calibrate your gyro. Plug it into Betaflight on a flat surface and click calibrate accelerometer

@@DarrenAllatt done everything... We're talking 1 to 5 Mtr range out to 200m. Just randomly.. then bind up my friends tx16s and can fly both no problems

Are you bound using D8 or D16 mode?

@@DarrenAllatt used both and used 2 different quads. Now since bought a used tlite and it works perfect. The tpro is obviously faulty. Sent back to seller even though he said he won't do anything 😭

What has lost you on the 3 digital systems?

@Darren Allatt @Darren Allatt just seems dji is best but then i see reviews and hdo is best. Then walksnail is best, now new hd0 goggles well they are the best. I went and just got the dji fpv kit so I can see. Also going to replace my XD9 controller, but not sure if I should keep dji as dji and get hd0 for build quads. I actually like building them almost more than flying. My kit will be here is few days. Now i am wondering if i should have just got the dji ciniwoop with the new dji goggles 2 instead of the v2. Ugg as for controller going for tx16s MKII, not sure if i should get the 4 in 1 and addon the elrs since that can get 1w and can still run my older quads like the babyhawk, tiny hawk and all the 5 inchers, they are all crossfire.. definitely not going to add hd or change xfire to elrs. you see my brain is racing with all these decisions 🙄

​@@cheeseNrice69 Ok, which is BEST is the wrong question, because it's subjective to each pilot and their use case. If you fly long range, DJI O3 has a hard cut off at 20kms, but if you normally hit 50kms - well, then it's not the best If you need the lowest latency in your FPV Feed, then DJI at 30ms is not the best, HDZero aka HDZ (not HD0) is "the best" If you need to fly across all segments of FPV, Whoops, Micros, 5" Freestyle, Racing... DJI is not the best the way people measure "the best" is based upon picture quality, but this is just like saying which Car is the best because it looks nice. - it doesn't consider the engine underneath it - it doesn't consider the use case DJI to me is like a Rolls Royce car, HD-Zero is a Ferrari/Lambo/koenigsegg and Walksnail is a Bently/Lexus/BMW. Which is best? - depends on the user and the use case I have all 3 systems, for me, I get motion sickness when flying DJI O3, but I don't get that on Walksnail or HD-Zero You really need to understand your use case and what you fly to then make an informed decision about which system is "BEST FOR YOU". If you like Building more than Flying, then why spend $229 on DJI O3, when you can spend $159 on Walksnail Regarding Radios and Crossfire vs ELRS. - unless you have a bunch of stuff that you still fly that on Frsky, then a 4in1 is pointless. I'd go ELRS - you still need to add your crossfire module anyway - most stuff coming out is ELRS with an Crossfire option, so this way you'd be covered for best of both worlds.

It's useful mainly for racers. It links your goggles with your vtx. So change channels on one and the other automatically changes to match.

If you run Analog or HDZero you can use the LUA script in your radio to change the video channel on your quad and goggles at the same time.

Useful for everyone on Analog or HDZero, saves stuffing around with channels on both

@@DarrenAllatt Thanks good explanation 👍

@@Raven187FPV Thanks ❤

Champion 🫡

I’d get the ELRS version of the boxer, I run ELRS over Crossfire as it better suits my needs. But you can run crossfire if you want through the module bay.

@@DarrenAllatt thank you! its alot to investigate in this hobby for sure! so much to pick from :D

What are you on about?

Wtf are you on about?
