I had a problem for a few days with flashing my new Zorro and you just solved my problem with your Fixer app. So I am going to Patreon right now cause you really deserve it man. TNx for your content.
Joshua, you're my hero! I had issues with the STM32 bootloader; nothing worked, until you directed me to the driver fix. Many thanks and greetings from Belgium!
You survived the wings, that’s great. Been following for a long time now. Thank you for all the great information and helping me on my journey into fpv.
Finally I made the switch to Edge. Many thanks to you JB and edgeTX buddy. I only had one little hikup but all worked out in the end. Great to have the touch screen finally working, for which I paid for.
I was going to give up on Jumper T-Lite Express Lrs I just could not load the Lua Srcipt at all. If it wasn't for Watching Joshua's Video in how to i really was going to break the deam thing out of anger, Thanks Joshua Bardwell mutch appreciated.
Holy sh*t! I just updated my radio AND SD card in record time! Thank you JB for this one!! Thank you EDGE TX! PLEASE SEND JB AND EDGE TX ALL YOUR MONEY!
My OpenTX Logical Switches for pre-arm with a momentary and a normal switch didn't work with Edge TX. I had to re-rewrite it and it looks fairly different, but it does indeed seem to work.
Installing impulse rc driver fixer to my Radiomaster Boxer allowed edgetx buddy to update my radio from edgetx 2.8 to 2.9.1 That was a major hang up, so it should be a small video of its own. Thank you so much..!!
On my Jumper T-Lite, buddy.edgetx did not work with my radio plugged in while off. It would flash, but then I couldn’t power on the radio anymore. It would only turn off over and over. Was quite a headache actually because I had issues with my sdcard at the same time. I had to turn on the radio into bootloader mode (press the bottom two middle trim buttons before powering on and keep “Write Firmware” selected) and then, flash firmware. I used EdgeTX Flasher instead this time, but I think it would work with buddy. It’s pretty much the same thing as buddy.edgetx except it’s on your laptop.
I updated from OpenTx to EdgeTx for expresslrs on my Frsky x9d+ 2019. the latest 2.8 does not load properly unless done by dfu. 2.7 works fine though, so I'm running 2.7, I just wanted to fly at that point. maybe I'll update some other day. great video, wish this was around last week when I was struggling lol. edit: my struggle? stm driver didn't load properly for windows 10. but now I know about immersion fix to try. thanks!
Nirvana NV-14 and likely other TX's may have other sequences to go into DFU mode... The NV-14 has a DFU button but there is also a software sequence to go into "Firmware Update" mode as well. Do some research if just plugging it in doesn't work to get you into DFU mode.
Did I miss the part where the advantages of Edge TX were discussed? As far as I can see FPV pilots use almost none of the mixing, telemetry and operational features of Open TX. They rely on the flight controller operating system Betaflight iNav or other system to do all the mixing. The transmitter is used for its gimbals and switches, servo trimming, and RF operation. So exactly which features of Open TX are improved for the FPV pilot? The progression from ER9X to ErSky9x to Open TX always resulted in improvements which were valuable: better menus, better choices for switch operation, better telemetry pages, better voice programming ability, better handling of global functions, better radio setup options and better control of mixing functions like delay timers and slow acting mixers. I understand that Edge TX supports touch screens but that is not a compelling feature for most pilots who don't have a radio with a touch screen. So; what's better on Edge TX?
The simplest way to answer this question is to read the release notes of each version of edgetx. They're available here: github.com/EdgeTX/edgetx/releases
Think this was my problem, purchased a second hand tbs tango 2. I think the previous owner had edge TX and that's where the sound files I lost possibly came from.
I see my QX7 is only “community supported” vs the officially supported radios. I do plan on upgrading to a different radio this year, maybe I should wait and get one on the official list? 🤔
What more could have you done to help me upgrade my TX16S to EdgeTx ? Maybe doing it yourself ! Thanks a lot Joshua, for this upgrade, and for all the times you helped me 🙂🙂;-)
if after Edgetx Buddy copies your files you get a throttle warning on boot you haven't fully copied your SD files, you can do it manually, from your saved files to the TX16S
Upgraded my radiomaste tx16s from edge 2.6 to 2.91 using the buddy. Radio won't recognize the SD card from the computer and won't turn on anymore. Yay! Should have left things alone. Tried the 3 methods, tried a Mac, tried a windows machine, tried an apex driver fixer, tried the companion, tried rolling it back to 2.6. Tried a previous version of the companion, tried. Got real desperate and tried reformatting the SD card to fat32. Tried taking out the little coin battery and replacing it. 4 hours later, nothing. Very frustrated at the moment.
Yep, it's bricked. Reloaded the bootloader. I have scoured the internet all day and have tried everything. Still won't boot up. Gimbal lights turn on and it sits there clicking, screen off. Ordering a new tx16s now. This was a fun follow along adventure! This will be the last attempt at updating radios.
Joshua, very thorough as always, although I held my breath waiting for the "more on the Tango 2" info.. What's happening there? any ideas, please share your knowledge.
Hi Joshua, I always learnt something from your videos, great job. By the way, I wonder if you could advise me something regarding EdgeTX. As per EdgeTX 2.8, we can control power availability for the external UART port available on TX16S via Hardware tab on SYS menu. Now, is there a way that we could somehow assign that function to a switch, so that we can control power availability for an external device attached to the said UART? say like an on-off switch. I have a Bluetooth module installed inside the case of my TX16S acting as a telemetry mirror to my phone, but i want to activate it only when i need it to, instead of staying on draining battery life. kindly need your advice if it can be done..
JB do you have a new sound pack that say Welcome to EdgeTX as the like to you sound back is for Opentx- booooo!. Like the one "still over here, turned on not doing anything". --Replace the "hello" in Sounds , System with the EdgeTx sound file
I see this has been listed as a highlight of 2.8......'Telemetry: Extend link quality warnings range - i.e. useful for ELRS now'. What does this mean or more so what would be the settings for warnings regarding LQ using ELRS?
@JoshuaBardwell hi josh THE JUMPER T PRO you said you was going to do a setup tutorial iv not found it. so i just got the V2 4in1 +elrs module. it has internal memory & looks like no port on other side of hole, im scared to put sd in encase theres not please can you make a setup tutorial for V2 with edgeTX there's only videos for other controller's with colour screens & not the black & white jumper t screens. im a complete beginner & i need to learn this edgeTX 4in1 controller plus the ELRS module setup. thanks josh
God, I hope you are ok. I felt really bad for putting 20 on that yesterday after watching you suffer. Sorry about that. Hope you have a great new year.
As always, good informative content. I've watched a lot of your videos and they've always been useful. What I'd like to know is if there is any real advantage to using the radios you use vs Spektrum with a module? I fly everything from helicopters to airplanes to freestyle quads. I use a Spektrum NX8 with Crossfire module for the quads. I also fpv one of my airplanes, an 84 inch Turbo Bushmaster. For someone like me who doesn't really want to mess with the fuss that comes with Open/Edge TX, am I really missing out on anything or am I, like I suspect, perfectly fine with what I run? Have you or do you plan on doing any vids of Spektrum w/module vs the Edge/Open TX radios?
with just a crossfire module I don't think so, but if you were to start using ghost/ELRS and wanted the higher packet rates I'm not sure it's possible without edgeTX. If your current stuff works fine then it probably isn't a necessary upgrade but at some point it will become outdated just like all tech does. Given the mess that is going on with FrSky/EthOS/ripping off ELRS currently its fairly safe to say edgeTX will be the primary OS for all new radios in the coming years (especially now that its being installed as standard by people like radiomaster)
Why is there not a Radio Model option for the Radiomaster Boxer in EdgeTX Companion/EdgeTX Buddy for the 2.8.0-factory version installed from the manufacturer?
Hi. I updated my old Teranis X9D to Edgetx and also the internal XJT module. I use the latest firmware from Frsky for the XJT module, version EU LBT, but I can't bind to new receiver G-RX8. Any idea? Wery greatful for help. Regards Lalle
Just be careful. I had a fully working Zorro and decided to follow his step by step. Now I have a Zorro that won't recognize internal ELRS, audio greeting/voice warnings gone, and it won't allow ExpressELRS LUA to do anything (just sits there and "thinks" until I back out).
@@JoshuaBardwell YES!! Sorry work has me slammed and so it took me a day or two to try it. I spent easy 5-6 hours and refreshed my firmware 2-3 times trying to get it to work and your video had it fixed in 20 seconds. Now, I debate: Do I leave it alone since the last flash I put on it was an older version of the Zorro's firmware.... IDK. I am so burnt out on this controller, before you replied I was already starting to just get a new controller (prob TX-16 JB edition). May still get it anyway.
So im on 2.6. Companion 2.8 doesn't seem to read for the backup (2.7.1, & 2/6.0 also didnt work to read models). As I followed through the video, I realized I could backup by saving to files from the SD card. The rest went smooth via Chrome/EdgeTX-Buddy. Great video. Will you be doing an update on setting up the radio/models? Are there new settings or does it just look nicer with the graphics layout? (part of me kinda liked the old look better, but maybe im just not used to the graphic layout yet... is there a way to change this look?) Thanks, as always!
joshua i try to update my mt12 that has factory firmware. i follow the steps it reads the 32botloader and when i hit flash i get an error message....Failed to execute 'open' on 'USBDevice': Access denied.
Hello 😀i have a problem with my tx16s this radio is new and i bought it from team BlackSheep blowout sale , i Get a warning bad radiodata and a lot of things is gone ,When i plug my tx16s into my computer, only the firmware folder shows up, not the SD What to do??
@@JoshuaBardwell What should I do if when I plug the USB into the radio and it doesn't give me the option to pick "USB STORAGE", it just shows "USB". Companion doesn't detect my radio.

I have a "old" 9XR Turnigy and it's running Edge. Apparently not compatible with Express lrs which is sad. Apparently it doesn't have powerful enough hardware
Thanks for another amazing video So I've been out of the air for a couple years Now my young boys are getting into FPV Surprise FRsky is no longer the way to go I need a second controller and I am thinking about ordering a radio master But I would love to set up a buddy box Is it possible to link my qX7 to a radio master? Does anybody have answer to this? I googled it and am having no luck
Thank you Josh for this tutorial, but, how can i install Edgetx on my T-Pro 4in1 by using usb-c port? Keeping the radio off and connecting it to pc, only charging mode this way, and the pc won't see It. So i can't run Edgetx Buddy to install the new firmware.... Many Thanx
Awesome 👌 job . If you want to learn this is the channel. If you want to hear someone say I'm telling the truth in the whole video 📹 tons channels out there.
Any updates for that 3.2 I just saw on there? This video is only a few weeks old so I’m assuming I should just run 2.8 like everyone else on the commando 8 for my Chimera 7 pro v1?
Question sir...I followed your video an got 2.8 on my radio...with this process..would i still need to download the firmware an SD card contents to do this...or does it automatically pull everything from online to do this
Hi Joshua. I have a TX16s which I bought over a year ago and haven't used yet so I've not changed anything and have no models on it, therefore, if I'm correct, nothing to back up or save. Can I simply take out the supplied SD card, insert a new unused card (256mb) and use EdgeTX Buddy as you describe to change from OpenTX to EdgeTX? Thanks!
i have the ELRS jumper t pro and it now ships factory with a latching switch, but anyway when i put it into 1w mode it bugs out and starts arming and disarming the quad repeatedly, as soon as i put it down to 500mw it stops doing it and behaves normally again, anyone ever had something similar? im thinking updating the firmware might help but im hoping i can avoid that
hi..i would like asking if is possible to set the reverse thrust with a switch on the tx16s? i couldn't manage so far.....and i was wondering if with new edge update it is possible. thanx!
I don't know why it didn't work for you, but it definitely DOES work in Chrome. Like ... If there was one browser on earth it would work on, it would be Chrome. I use Chrome. It works for me. A shit load of people use Chrome.
As a baseball cap wearing dad i approve of the hat i think it makes you look good! (in a plutonic ty for hiding the bald spot kind of way) Please stay away from the mesh back hats on camera...
So bro I’ve gotten the sound pack onto my radio but when I turn my radio on instead of it saying welcome to edge tx it says welcome to open tx. Is there anyway to fix this to make it say edge tx or anyway to make it say anything you want??
Help! Joshua only has 5 models on his radio. How do you get a OpenTx model to bind with multiple quads? is at as easy as binding each new quad under the same model? I swear he made a video for this in the past, but I haven't been able to find it!

Any updates for that 3.2 I just saw on there? This video is only a few weeks old so I’m assuming I should just run 2.8 like everyone else on the commando 8 for my Chimera 7 pro v1?
tfw Tango 2 daily, it's just so damn comfortable to hold ;_;
Question sir...I followed your video an got 2.8 on my radio...with this process..would i still need to download the firmware an SD card contents to do this...or does it automatically pull everything from online to do this
Hi Joshua. I have a TX16s which I bought over a year ago and haven't used yet so I've not changed anything and have no models on it, therefore, if I'm correct, nothing to back up or save. Can I simply take out the supplied SD card, insert a new unused card (256mb) and use EdgeTX Buddy as you describe to change from OpenTX to EdgeTX? Thanks!
Thx
a man with a beard and cap always catches my eye....
can the EDGETX be flashed on the X-LITE PRO
Yes.
That's not a Jumper. Seems to be a Commando 8 😉
i have the ELRS jumper t pro and it now ships factory with a latching switch, but anyway when i put it into 1w mode it bugs out and starts arming and disarming the quad repeatedly, as soon as i put it down to 500mw it stops doing it and behaves normally again, anyone ever had something similar? im thinking updating the firmware might help but im hoping i can avoid that
hi..i would like asking if is possible to set the reverse thrust with a switch on the tx16s? i couldn't manage so far.....and i was wondering if with new edge update it is possible. thanx!
Yes it's possible. Look up a tutorial for how to wet up 3d mode.
@@JoshuaBardwell yes i did it! Thanks a lot for the info🙏😉
Mine says "open tx" but shows the words edge tx not all radios are the same
It just means you've still got the opentx SD card contents. Someone updated the radio to EdgeTX, but not the SD card.
where do I check if it has ELRS by default ?
I don't know why it didn't work for you, but it definitely DOES work in Chrome. Like ... If there was one browser on earth it would work on, it would be Chrome. I use Chrome. It works for me. A shit load of people use Chrome.
@@JoshuaBardwell I had issues with driver (!) the fixer thing worked though, also it wasn’t clear you had to select device from the pop up window.
As a baseball cap wearing dad i approve of the hat i think it makes you look good! (in a plutonic ty for hiding the bald spot kind of way) Please stay away from the mesh back hats on camera...
So bro I’ve gotten the sound pack onto my radio but when I turn my radio on instead of it saying welcome to edge tx it says welcome to open tx. Is there anyway to fix this to make it say edge tx or anyway to make it say anything you want??
Yes. There is an edgetx version of the hello/welcome file. Remove the OpenTX version and rename the edgetx one to be what the OpenTX one was named.
Thank you sir!!
Hello,
hope someone can help me. What to flash on the RadioMaster TX16S Mark II?
EdgeTX Buddy just shows RadioMaster TX16s.

That is what you should flash.
Thank you very much@@JoshuaBardwell
Already there..
Help! Joshua only has 5 models on his radio. How do you get a OpenTx model to bind with multiple quads? is at as easy as binding each new quad under the same model? I swear he made a video for this in the past, but I haven't been able to find it!
Yes just bind each new quad under the same model.
@@JoshuaBardwell Thank you!!!
👍🏻👍🏻
Yeah Yeah...... Edgetx :D
No matter what I do it doesn’t work im not tech savvy this is starting to become a turn off to fpv and I haven’t even started
It looks like the Edge TX Buddy also works with Microsoft Edge. It's getting edgy 😀
