This is the end of Futaba Sanwa and Spektrum. ELRS with Edge TX for cars is in the house. Finally someone did it.

@firstpersonvictoria5050 7 месяцев назад

I will never go back to Futaba after my TX16S. This will replace my Flysky ground radio from here forward.

@RCEVOLUTION 7 месяцев назад

For the moment right now, the response speed, Sanwa M17 is the fastest, Futaba 10px the second, and the third will be Flysky Noble Pro and Radiomaster MT12. But do remember, Sanwa, Futaba and Flysky have special decode encode method which will boost us the speed with SR/SSR/iBus2, which MT12 don't have. Flysky Noble Pro have 2ch mode, cut down the packet size and speed, which MT12 don't have. MT12 response is fast but still need to improve.

@@RCEVOLUTION Edge TX with ELRS will do F1000 mode over the air and 400hz pwm output on the receiver. This is already somewhere in the sub 4ms range between the control input and a change in pwm output at the receiver. Would the highest performing racer notice the difference between 1, 2, 3, or 4ms latency? I'm not sure. Though I do think it would be very cool if servos and receivers and surface ESCs that can talk Dshot like racequad ESCs come out at some point. That would be 1ms round trip latency finally realized. Dshot lets the flight controller in racequads tell the ESC what to do at just ridiculous speeds. Like under 20uS depending on what hardware being used.

@swissfreek 6 месяцев назад

@@power21100 right but what are you actually saying? If your charge port wears out you will continue to use the radio by charging the battery externally and using the data port when needed? Or will you just replace the charge port? And if that’s the case what does it matter that it’s separate? And I know you say it *will* wear out, and I’ve heard of people having issues with USB-C ports, but I have never broken a single one ever, not on RC gear (radio, VTX, FC, etc.) or on any other personal items (I’m a Mac user so I’ve been almost exclusively USB-C for almost ten years). USB micro broke all the time, though, so I’m happy that’s finally pretty much gone from everything. I still argue that from a design perspective, having separate ports makes absolutely no sense. Your phone doesn’t do it. Your computer (probably) doesn’t do it. Your Bluetooth speaker doesn’t do it. You get my point. Even from a cost perspective it makes no sense. It would be cheaper for them to only put in one port. So why then? Laziness? I know my passion on this is irrational but as an engineer I just can’t figure out why they would do it.

@Painless360 7 месяцев назад

Here are the answers to the common questions below - 1) Will it bind to other ExpressLRS receivers? Yes any ExpressLRS RX is compatible. Plus, it'll support binding to multiple receivers for huge PWM channels in the model. See ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3q5KTM7IGI0.html 2) What is the latency? F1000mode and 400hz PWM output = ~1.5ms F1000mode and 333hz PWM output = ~2.0ms 3) Can it be setup for tracked vehicles? Yes it can, all of the same options are in EdgeTX. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YewheGdSqPU.html shows how 4) Can it be setup to connect to a Head Tracker or trainer radio? Yes it has a trainer port that functions the same as other radios. Happy flying!

I want to know if this (with the 4-in-1 module) will work with the Losi Promoto mx 1/4-scale motorcycle and, if so, how you would need to program it for that RC motorcycle.

@xXYannuschXx 7 месяцев назад

What would really interest me is a latency and range comparison. The fact you can use the receivers with an internal or external antenna is golden! I am currently on a Sanwa MTS and the receivers with internal antennas are not reliable with RCs that have lots of metal around them, like a Baja 5B Flux or a Hyper VS Nitro. You bought the EXPRESSLRS version, right? Can you add a module to that one that supports Sanwa FH4?

@8da11en 7 месяцев назад

Regarding the multi-protocol version, protocol support can be hit or miss, so I would not purchase this expecting it to work with everything ready to run you have. That being said, if the community participates (and maybe RadioMaster can contribute to the effort?), we can get more protocols supported. Currently the RadioLink FHSS v1 protocol RX works for me, and I am having issues with an SCX 24 C10 and Kyosho FHSS Mini-Z. So even when it's listed as supported, there may be changes in more recent versions or v1 vs v2 electronics with only one of the two supported.

@Painless360 7 месяцев назад

Report issues to the MPM project so they know that those protocols need attention... Best of luck

@8da11en 7 месяцев назад

Yup have been reporting on github. I was actually able to resolve by updating Boxer internal 4in1 to the latest .33 firmware release, but my Zorro with .7 also worked. So I may have somehow had a partially messed up flash, or it may have been a bug in .20 release and or .14. In any case, things are looking a lot better now, regarding what is reported as supported actually working.

@cfusername 7 месяцев назад

I have the Flysky NB4 and always hoped that it will also support the older protocols at some point, but it probably never will, since Flysky has no interest in doing that. The firmware is not bad, but certainly no EdgeTX. Also the RXs are pretty expensive. I therefore still use some older GT3C with the cheap Flysky RXs with a custom firmware. But the build quality isn't great and it's a bit complicated to set up. This radio could be ideal as a replacement (4in1 variant) to use with the simple transmitters, which are completely fine for most vehicles and only cost a few bucks. I hope this will also inspire others to create similar products in the future.

Enormous hole in the market they just filled. 16 channels and unlimited programmability for the scale crawler guys to get super dorky with all their lights and winches yadda yadda yadda. ELRS F1000 and 400hz servo pwm for the carpet buggy guys. MPM for the guys that have a bunch of different receivers and vehicles they need to bind to. Ability to run Crossfire or 900Mhz ELRS for people that want to long range FPV a surface vehicle. All for a radio and receivers that are a fraction the price of all the big names. Wins all around for the consumer. Another death knell for the proprietary software ecosystems.... They are going to make less money in the short term but if they want to stay in the radio business long-term Horizon and the other big names would do well to start making EdgeTX and ELRS equipment. There is still a market for radios that have a higher degree of fit and finish than Radiomaster but they must run EdgeTX and have a module bay to stay relevant imo. I'm picking up 2wd carpet buggy racing this season and am currently set up with my Boxer and ELRS since it's what I had. Now I have to juggle the idea of picking up one of these for a pistol grip style. Decisions decisions.... Then again the stick radio really doesn't seem to be slowing me down so I'll probably stick with that.
