    At the time of posting, this video is 100% correct for v3.2.x….
    BUT, in v3.3 which is currently in release candidate, the bind phrase workflow has been “fixed” so that wherever you last set it from (configurator, webui etc.) will take priority. This means you don’t need that last step to set the bind via webUI anymore.

    • @JoshuaBardwell
      @JoshuaBardwell  Год назад +17

      Damn you devs, always fixing things right after I document the bug. FWIW I still would set bind by webui over flashing, if I had the correct version.

      Wish I could plug the quad into the radio, run a lua from radio to flash and bind all in one go.

    Wow!!! That is so much easier than using Crossfire and hitting 2 bind buttons (at very most). PS, nicely added filler to get past that 10 min mark. I really need to try Expresslrs sometime so I'm able to say from experience that it's just not worth all the hoop jumping when you have the ease and great performance of Crossfire. The range and penetration of Expresslrs is going to have to mind blowing for me to go through all that crap just to establish a link..... Still love and appreciate all your help Bardwell.

    • @JoshuaBardwell
      @JoshuaBardwell  7 месяцев назад +1

      I never add filler content to manipulate length and run mid-rolls. My videos are as long as they are. And anyway, the cutoff is 8 minutes not 10 minutes, so do with that whatever you want.
      From the tone of your message, it sounds like you like Crossfire and are not sincerely interested in the things that ELRS brings to the table. Dont' bother trying ELRS would be my advice. It will be a waste of your time, and will just self-reinforce the things you already believe.
      In case you are curious, the reason ELRS doesn't have over-the-air firmware update like Crossfire is because ELRS is supported by many different manufacturers. Because there are so many different firmware targets, they can't all be stored on the module and automatically flashed at bind time. The tradeoff here is that you can always find ELRS in stock, and there is cross-vendor competition for features, build quality, and price.

      @@JoshuaBardwell I am interested in the penetration ELRS is said to have over Crossfire. You have to admit with ELRS there is a lot more you have to go through to set it up and especially your first time setting up the TX as well.
      I kind of look at it the same way as I look at KISS Ultra. A completely different and seemingly more complicated animal than Betaflight. Your opinion on both has me decided that I will try both in the near future but the set-up process on both is what's holding me back.
      I rarely have any range issue with my Crossfire and I'm not a long-range guy anyway. I'm interested in if the penetration with ELRS is that much better than Crossfire? Is the juice worth the squeeze? 👍

    • @JoshuaBardwell
      @JoshuaBardwell  7 месяцев назад +1

      If you're using 2.4 GHz ELRS, compared to 900 MHz Crossfire, then which one has more range is difficult to predict. Crossfire's lower frequency will tend to give it longer range, and I suspect it would win at 50 Hz, but lose at 150 Hz, since 150 Hz CRSF doesn't use LoRa.
      If you're comparing 900 MHz ELRS to 900 MHz Crossfire, then ELRS will give better range. When both are operating at 50 Hz, ELRS will give somewhat better range because it has a smaller, more efficient packet format. This allows it to use a lower bit-rate modulation that has better sensitivity.
      ELRS 900 MHz can also run at 25 Hz, which would further increase its range advantage.
      CRSF 900 MHz can only use LoRa at 50 Hz packet rate. At 150 Hz, it uses FSK modulation, which has significantly shorter range. ELRS 900 MHz can go up to 200 Hz packet rate using LoRa. At 200 Hz, ELRS 900 MHz may have less range than CRSF at 50 Hz, but CRSF doesn't even offer this option, so it's worth calling out.
      In general, I would not expect ELRS to have enough of a range advantage compared to CRSF, to make it worth switching, as long as you are okay with the 50 Hz packet rate. If you want lower latency than the 50 Hz packet rate offers, then ELRS is worth switching to.

    Don't know for sure but there may be some steps missing involving swapping wifi connections since your system is setup with two of them but most people only have one. Frankly I got a bit lost after you did the download and build of the firmware. Probably nothing I couldn't sort out when doing it for real but just saying I didn't come away with a strong confidence that I understood all the steps and order of them to do the job, which by the way is not normal for your channel, i.e. you are the best that I know of at providing easy to understand detailed steps for getting whatever task is the subject of a particular video if that makes any sense.

Some will bind after hitting the bind button in betaflight others go into bind mode but don't ever bind. I only have about 4 and got 2 to bind so far and I didn't use a bind phrase I just pushed bind on both rx and tx and boom they were connected. But is it really connected? I kept getting what seemed to be like failsafes during simple flights around my house with one board. 🙃 honestly I thought I was switch from tbs crsf to this to not only save money but to have something that works consistently and efficiently but I've spent all night trying to use the configurator to bind/flash the rx / tx and kept coming up with failures. I've given up for now😅 i did buy some normal elrs rx's so ill come back to this once ive mastered the spi based internal rx's first...

    My procedure is to connect to the receiver with WiFi and set it to connect to my home network. Then I build and flash from the configurator. This has worked for every receiver brand except the Axis Flying receivers I have. With those, WiFi did not work correctly until I had upgraded once. After that I am able to use the same method with home network set for future updates.

    I've flashed ELRS receivers various ways, WiFi, Betaflight passthru and a USB/TTL bridge.
    Whilst the WiFi approach specified here is undoubtedly very convenient, one thing I've found one needs to watch out for is WiFi range - the tx power from the receiver seems very low. Move the PC antenna and Rx too far apart and it'll lose connection pretty quickly - mine does anyway.
    It hasn't happened to me yet, but I wonder what might be the result if it lost connection in the middle of flashing. Don't know but suspect one might have to force the Rx into boot mode and reflash with a USB/TTL bridge.
    Important to make sure the WiFi connection is solid, anyway.

      If you raise the wifi hotspot timeout, you can extend the time before wifi kicks in to like 10 minutes or some other very long value. But using wifi to configure the system will become difficult since the RX will need to be told to go into wifi mode manually. If you don't have your controller, you'll be waiting a long time.

    Correct me if I’m wrong, but don’t you select build, and flash when you are updating your TX/RX through the USB /UART choice instead of Wi-Fi? Thanks for the video.

    • @JoshuaBardwell

      Correct. But I"m not flashing through USB/UART, I'm flashing through WiFi.

    5:47 Does it matter which .bin file you use to update the rx? I noticed you used the firmware.bin file, whereas I've only ever used the one with the name of the rx. All my rx's work great so I guess I've answered my own question... but why the 2 .bin files?

    If you have a F4 and it seems like you did everything right but it’s not working you might need to use a different UART. I had to swap the RX and my Vista and it started working as expected.

    Joshua, I’ve watched both. I still get some flashes that just fail and brick my RX! If I evened out the money btw wasted rx and crossfire rx it’s prob same price. It prob user error but I’m doing nothing different than you… Update: I watched it in depth (this current video) and realized I may have been trying to flash the other file, not the firmware.bin - does this make sense that I would still at times get successful flashes using that other file labeled “3.2.1” for example?

    Hello Joshua, first I have to say I LOOOOOVE your videos. I consider it a "Good day" when I learn something. Thanks to your videos I've had lots of them.
    On to my question...
    I have a Baby Ape Pro V2. I'm try to set the Bind phrase on the ELRS module. Connecting to the on board Wifi it tells me...
    From here you can update your Receiver module with BETAFPV_2400_RX firmware Rev. 2.5.2 (6d9d57) ISM2G4
    My question is, what should I do? Upon checking in ELRS configurator, there is no exact match for that name. But the Flight Controller and the ESC are both AIO components. Maybe the ELRS receiver is also AIO? Should I try the firmware labeled BETAFPV_AIO_2400_RX?? If it doesn't work, will it be bricked for good?

    • @MrAlucardDante
      @MrAlucardDante Год назад

      It’s wifi not bluetooth, and this video isn’t just about binding but also flashing. Although what you are mentioned works, using a binding phrase means it just works out of the box. And you will eventually update you firmware. So you just have to do it once and forget about it.

    • @JoshuaBardwell
      @JoshuaBardwell  Год назад +1

      That's fine, but it doesn't work unless you know they're on the same firmware, and these days the RX usually comes with 2.x and the module has 3.x, so you're going to have to flash it anyway.
