In the newest version of OpenTX, a new dialog box has been added when you try to bind a Frsky receiver to your Taranis. There are four options, “Channel 1-8 or 9-16, and Telemetry On or Off. This article will explain what these options mean.
Long range radio systems using 900MHz including the Frsky R9M and TBS Crossfire typically use a single dipole antenna on the receiver. The optimal antenna positioning can be different from traditional 2.4GHz systems with diversity monopole antennas on the receivers.
In this guide I will show you where to get the uninverted SBUS and Smart Port signals on many different Frsky receivers, including the R-XSR, XSR, X4R-SB and XM.
Tired of having a wire in the way when playing FPV simulators with your Taranis? Problem solved! FrSky recently released a Wireless USB Simulator Dongle – the XSR-SIM. It allows you to wirelessly connect your FrSky transmitter to the computer for racing drone simulators.
The Frsky Taranis X-Lite TX has the shape of a gaming controller. It’s much smaller than traditional radio transmitters, the compact size means you can take it virtually anywhere. In this review we will check out the build quality, features, and how to set up the X-Lite for the first time.
During the latency testing on the Frsky X-Lite, we discovered some interesting results. There is delay in the gimbals, (how often the gimbal value is being updated), and additional delay caused by OpenTX’s sample averaging.
So you want to flash Frsky RX firmware, but too lazy to take your quad apart? You can flash it through your flight controller, just like how you flash your BLHeli ESC’s using FC pass-through.
The Frsky X-Lite has an external module bay that is too small to fit standard size JR modules including the TBS Crossfire. Are we giving up that easily? HELL NO! A few people have been taking the X-Lite apart as soon as they received the the first batch, and trying to find out whether they can get it working.
There are a whole range of radio receivers (RX) for the Frsky Taranis, and I have rounded up the ones suitable for mini quads and micro quads in this article. We will explain the differences in spec and hopefully it can help you choose the one for your next build.
The FrSky’s R9 receiver is designed to work with the Frsky R9M long range module, however it was just a bit too big for mini quads. Therefore Frsky made a smaller version, the R9 Slim, which we will check out in this review.
In this article we will take a look at the Horus X10S – FrSky’s new flagship radio transmitter (TX). The X10 and X12 are probably the two highest quality TX Frsky has ever made. I love the X10S but there are reasons why you might not need to upgrade and continue to use the cheaper Taranis.
