      Thanks as always brother :)
      yes true.. compared to what we're used to these days (Jumper / Radiomaster / etc) this looks like an actual radio :D
      Cheers and have a good week!

      I'll happily let channels that get this stuff for free dig into it :)

    Hi, I have received mine today. they have changed few things on the newer batch I guess added a plastic protrusion on the back where you have holes for cooling fan might be a bigger fan I think. and there is a jumper pins next to hdmi port not sure what that is for also got a jumper plug in the packaging. Came with ethos 1.4.0 and new hdzero firmware I guess telemetry seems do display as needed.

      Interesting! I don't have a pre-production version, on the other hand it's good to see they improve things when it's needed..
      I will have to have words with Frsky about this :P
      Do you have then "normal" current HDzero OSD that I didn't have??

    Hello i have a Dragonlink receiver that i would like to use with this radio i listened very closely and i heard it does 2.4 and 900 but can i use my 433 into the module bay and connect as an external module?

    • @DutchRC
      @DutchRC  Год назад

      Hi there :)
      soooo I think in the past that would have been done via the trainer-port of the radio? I have never used Dragonlink myself but it has been around a Long time...
      So connecting your module via the trainer port can still be done (with allmost any radio really)..
      Using it as an external module would be more of a challenge as the module bay of this radio is NOT a JR-style bay but a micro-module bay..
      What do you think?

      @@DutchRC as long as i it has option of reading what is connected as an option I’m sure it can be detected and used so long as i am not obligated to using the set frequency ranges of the radio because then I’d have to buy 900mhz Dragonlink and that would be painful because i use 1.2ghz to fly with it would definitely cause interference in my video

    • @DutchRC

      I would think there would not be any hardware modding needed but you Would need new firmware for it.. The R9 modules can be used for ELRS without mods right?
