If you're having issues setting this up I'd recommend visiting the ELRS quick setup guide. I had the issue where it was not detecting my device correctly therefore in the manual firmware box it was selecting COM5 and failing. The fix for me was to update the firmware which I found from the website mentioned under the 3rd section "Update the TX Module"
@darrenallat Hi mate, mate thanks for the tutorial this was really helpful! I understood most of what was being said when initially visiting this video but as it lacks on detail (due to being a 5 min setup guide) it makes more sense after going through the ELRS quick start guide and using some other tutorials before this one. One suggestion is to post the link to the ELRS setup guide as well as any other resources of interest as if people have issues, they'll likely be lost in what to do next and be relying on you replying

Hi, I like 1 of my switches down towards me but i get a switch warning every time i turn it on. Is there a way to tell my radio that the switch that is down towards me is the default position so i dont get this warning every time? Im using the RM boxer. Thanks in advance Darren
Hi, I have went to the internal module in the setup. However, when I turn it on, I have only tow choices, off and multi. Below the mode tab I have a type tap, but there I couldn't find crsf. Only types like FrSky...
I am new to the hobby, just got this radio for liftoff, i saw yours at 7.8v battery, can i know at what voltage should i charge the radio and how do i charge it? I have been using it for liftoff for 2 weeks and it is 6.8v now.
I have the same radio and setting up my first quad .. thanks for the tutorial. Question - you did not mention the packet rate but i see that you are using 250Hz and 1:64 for telemetry .. is that what you generally recommend for everything? (there are way too many other options in there that i don't quite understand yet). Thanks for your help.
I use 250hz packet rate because it’s a good balance of speed, range & penetration. Packet rate is how fast the radio talks to the receiver, The faster it talks the less range and penetration you get. I don’t need F1000, or any of the others. Truth is, people can’t actually tell the difference anyway so it’s kind of mute.
ola amigo. espero que esteja tudo bem.. queria que vc me tirase uma duvida. comprei um radio master boxer, mass ele nao tem ELRS interno, posso atualizar pra fucionar o espress RLS.
Thank you so much! Ive been struggling to get any radio to connect to my mac to update firmware. Idk whats wrong with it but doing it through wifi worked perfectly. Man this shits been stressful 😂 i appreciate you good sir
You are doing a super job with your channel. Your content is absolutely relevant and timely. Have you explored the implications of DJI and security concerns with remote Id now on the person. It feels like RUclipsrs have stayed away from this topic but it’s a great point for sticking with analog. You won’t be able to use your quads or gear to defend or secure your property if the opposition is in control of the metadata on “hostile” pilot locations and take off points.
No. Remote ID which includes the pilot’s location is “standard remote id” which is on Pre-Built UAS, or consumer products. If you are wanting to defend or secure your property with a UAS, it will be a “home made”, and the pilots location is not included in the RID message. Further, if you are “defending” your property, they already know where you are - you are on your property defending it. Thus rendering the entire argument void. If you are worried about “the opposition”, whoever they may be. As stupid as I think the 2A is (as an Australian) anyone thinking of invading USA would be stupid because not only does USA have the largest Military, it is the most heavily armed population. Also, if you are so concerned about “hostilities”, you probably need to get off the internet, stop reading and buying into that garbage. It’s not only far stretched, but seriously impacts on mental health. Living in a constant state of fear, because of what you consume online, is giving “the opposition” exactly what they want.
You just admitted the opposition exists. Opposition is just that. And certainly being prepared is not going to be considered foolish. I think that is a personal decision everyone needs to consider. Again my concern here is not invalid as it has already taken place in Eastern Europe. Its not theoretical it has transpired. Should we assume it won’t be done to us?
I used “opposition” in “ to highlight your words. There is no opposition, just one you are made to believe in by online nutters who want you to live in fear. You can’t compare Russia / Ukraine with the USA. Go do some basic geography, look at those countries on a map, look at USA on a map.
Hey, I don't see my radio in wifi section on the computer when I enable wifi on the radio, even though I bring my radio as close as possible to the computer. Any suggestions on that? Thank you!
Don't you need to make sure the receiver is on the same version? Or does it do that automatically? Do you also have to bind the receiver? Or does it do that automatically?
As long as the receiver is on the same major version ie 3.x or 2.x you will be fine. All devices sharing the same binding phrase, same major version and same frequency (ie 2.4ghz) are automatically bound.
Thanks for the great video. When adding a second ELRS quad is there anything different to do? Having a difficult time to get my second ELRS receiver to work. First one was simple
@@charliemaybe you will probably need to assign the driver to the usb port its connected to in device manager did you select USB VCP on the radio after connecting? are you using the top port and not the bottom?
@@DarrenAllatt i am using the top port and the vcp option. How would i assign the usb port? Ill re do the driver install incase i did it wrong, but im not getting my hopes up
Hi my flight controller shows 17 channel but 9 of them work . And can assign channel . Whi other doesnot work ?( Other channel shows fixed value 1500 )
have you added them to your Mixer? From ELRS Website ELRS supports up to 16 channels*. Channels 1-4 are always sent at full-resolution (10-bit). The resolution and update rate of the remaining channels can be configured as follows, based on your requirements: 4x full-resolution (10-bit) channels for sticks (CH1-4) with either: HYBRID Mode 1x 2-position channel, AUX1 (CH5; Must be used for Arming), 6x 2-position/3-position/6-position (AUX2-7) and 1x 16-position (AUX8), OR WIDE Mode 1x 2-position channel, AUX1 (CH5; Must be used for Arming), 7x 64 or 128-position channels (AUX2-8). Available via the Lua Script since 2.0. 8x full-resolution (10-bit, ext-limits) with 1x 2-position channel, AUX1 16x full-resolution (10-bit, ext-limits, all half rate) with 1x 2-position channel, AUX1 12x full-resolution (10-bit, ext-limits) with 1x 2-position channel, AUX1, channels AUX2-9 run at half rate.
Hey great Video. I am having some trouble binding my boxer and I am a beginner. I followed your instructions but I didn't flash the firmware bc I ordered it from radiomaster and they said it shipped with the latest firmware(I got it last week). I have a tx16 (ELRS) that works with my drones (Hummingbird F4 V2 and Evoque F5 6s) and I tried setting it up exactly like it and it didn't work. Could you help me please. Thank you in advance.
What version of ELRS is your Boxer, and what version is your TX16S running? What version is on the Hummingbird and the Nazgûl. Just because it ships with the “latest” doesn’t mean it doesn’t need to flashed. If you are using a binding phrase then you will need to flash. Your receivers need to be on the same major version as your radio, for the Boxer that’s v3x
@@DarrenAllatt My boxer says it's version is 2.8.0-factory and my tx16 says its 2.7.1 (a55aff02). The Hummingbird says It's 4.3.1 BTFL and the Nazgul says it's 4.4.0 BTFL. I'm not sure what a binding phrase is or the major version but I am going to try to look it up. I hope I looked in the right places for everything. Also for the packet rate I have it set to 50hz. The instructions on the nazgul said it would give the best range. It works on the tx16 with both drones. Do I need to change this?
Ok I did that but when I select express elrs it stay at “loading” and nothing else happens. I can’t flash anything when using usb or WiFi. Via usb it says something related to com port
@@CarlosRodriguez-vg2ob That is the expected behaviour. You dont have an ExpressLRS radio - you have the 4in1 which doesnt have ELRS, so ExpressLRS lua script not loading is the expected behaviour. If you want to run ELRS, you will need an external module plugged into the back, where you follow this tutorial but select External intstead of Internal during the model setup.
@@DarrenAllatt but the box says that it has an internal ELRS module capable of 1000Hz refresh rate. Does that not mean that it has an internal ELRS module and I should be fine?
@@CarlosRodriguez-vg2ob I only have the information you tell me - and in your first comment, you said you have the 4in1 On the ELRS version, the only option for Internal is CRSF On the 4in1 version, you can select Multi. If you can select Multi, you have the 4in1 and not the ELRS version.
I smashed my tx16 because it wouldn't work for 2 days. Got a boxer and hopefully it works this time around. If luis script says C and the FC has a solid green and the controller doesnt work in betalflight. What do you think is the problem? - Hdzero freestyle - elrs - tx16 (elrs interna) Nothing working in betaflight when my tx16 was connected to FC
I bought the cc2500 by mistake is there a way to put elrs on the radio other than buying a module which I have ordered and am waiting on any help is appreciated
boxer shipped with 3.2.0 was trying to flash to 3.3.0 but the error message "could not find port". this means i will need to reinstate or update pc driver to proceed?
assuming you've got it plugged in the right USB port (top) and selected the right USB mode, and is it showing up as OpenTX in drop down on ELRS configurator? If not, you will need the CP210x drivers
Hey mate just followed all this on my new Boxer, at the end it says to please update the lua script. I downloaded that, now how do I update it? Cheers for your help!
Hello Darren I followed your steps to the the t but my radiometer boxer doesn’t seem to be connecting with elrs at all it just stays stuck at the loading screen
@DarrenAllatt Both. I did learn that TX and RX firmware must match, which was done thanks to your video. Another noob question. Is bench testing throttle unfeasible? After arming, I blip the throttle but the throttle stays on and revs high without my input.
I got to "create a new model" and placed a name... After that I do not know what happened but could not continue changing the options for that model. How do I select this new model to edit the options you shown in your video? thx
When setting my InternalRF mode to CRSF, instead of saying "250Hz 0Err"" it flashes between "250Hz 9Err" and "1000hz 9Err" I have searched around on how to solve this problem but have been unsuccessful. Any thoughts? I also posted this on The Bench for help. Edit: I sent a message on The Bench late at night and Darren instantly responded and was able to help me through the troubleshooting of this and we were able to get it fixed! Thank you Darren!
Hello I have Build error : serial.serialutil.SerialException: Cannot configure port, something went wrong. Original message: OSError None, 87) What could be wrong ??? 😞
I got a pop up after the build and flash command. It’s still flashing in the background but I was asked to I stall tools for the python3 command line. I don’t know what that is.
Hello, i need your help with it. i cant switch Internal RF mode on CRSF, it only let me do "multi" and then i set up all switches i go to SYS and press button ExpressLRS and all i see it is loading screen forever. Spend hours on this radiomaster already :(
You don’t have the ExpressLRS version of the radio, you have the multi protocol version. So you can’t use ELRS, and you will need to get an external module.
@DarrenAllatt Hey Darren, Im Donovan and I plugged in my radio master boxer Elrs to my computer and unplugged it not realizing it would mess it up and now there is nothing on the tools page on my radio. When I plug my card into my computer the scripts and tools are on it. I cannot figure out how to fix this. If you have any way of doing so would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
@@DarrenAllatt hey so now that I’ve got my radio sorted out I need help with my drone I’m not sure if you can help me but it’s worth a try so I have a whoopfly 16 and I have upgraded it’s firmware on beta flight but when I bind it beta flight shows me that it has bonded but when I move aux 1 throttle or anything those bar things don’t move at all please help me
After setting up the channels on the mixers page I tried to access the ExpressLRS lua script and it would not load. Any idea of what I could do would be appreciated
Sorry I am confused. At 2mins 20 you say "all you need to do is repeat the process for every different channel." Didn't we just allocate arm/disarm? Allocate what function to the other switches? There are 7 channels, but 4 switches. What do we do with the last switch?
@Darren Allatt thanks for your reply! I should have updated this comment, I've got the flash completed by building and selecting wifi, the problem seems to be my laptop! It says that the com port doesn't exist or failed to communicate along those lines. after researching and downloading older drivers just for expresslrs those ended in the same way. It appears my laptop closes the port after it being open for so long or something along those lines because the download worked it gave me another com port, com4, before the flash can be finished it's almost like the it gets ended by the computer. It's a new HP 15. with an older processor core3. It came in windows s mode, I had to take it out of safe mode just to install programs.
@Darren Allatt I flashed edgetx first on the same laptop with the same USB-C cord, there's something else I did that was bad though, I didn't finish model setup and open elrs lua before I tried to flash express. And because of that I wonder if I soft bricked it.

No- can be any brand as long as it’s ExpressLRS, 2.4ghz and on the same major firmware
Thx
Well explained video, my boxer stays in loading after i hit Epresselrs...Thanks in advance for the help.
Check to see if Internal Transmitter in the model is on and set to CRSF
@@DarrenAllatt Thank you for the reply - Yes it is set to CRSF

Hey Darren, thanks you for this, ive managed to get it to to very end but then it says update failed, any ideas?
Try a few times, sometimes it just fails for no reason and retrying works
My tx macs out at 100mW, I seen others with 100mW, how do the get 1000mW notice yours was 100mw
Hi, I have went to the internal module in the setup. However, when I turn it on, I have only tow choices, off and multi. Below the mode tab I have a type tap, but there I couldn't find crsf. Only types like FrSky...
You don’t have the ELRS version, you have a CC2500 or a JP4in1 Multi protocol module.
I am new to the hobby, just got this radio for liftoff, i saw yours at 7.8v battery, can i know at what voltage should i charge the radio and how do i charge it? I have been using it for liftoff for 2 weeks and it is 6.8v now.
Plug it into the bottom USB C port when you are not using it and it will charge
@@DarrenAllatt what's the max voltage i can charge to?
@@chunkit78 8.1 volts
@@angelmosqueda9470 max i go was 8.4v, will stick to 8.1v from now. TQ
I have the same radio and setting up my first quad .. thanks for the tutorial. Question - you did not mention the packet rate but i see that you are using 250Hz and 1:64 for telemetry .. is that what you generally recommend for everything? (there are way too many other options in there that i don't quite understand yet). Thanks for your help.
I use 250hz packet rate because it’s a good balance of speed, range & penetration.
Packet rate is how fast the radio talks to the receiver,
The faster it talks the less range and penetration you get.
I don’t need F1000, or any of the others.
Truth is, people can’t actually tell the difference anyway so it’s kind of mute.
ola amigo. espero que esteja tudo bem.. queria que vc me tirase uma duvida. comprei um radio master boxer, mass ele nao tem ELRS interno, posso atualizar pra fucionar o espress RLS.
No you can’t.
Thank you so much! Ive been struggling to get any radio to connect to my mac to update firmware. Idk whats wrong with it but doing it through wifi worked perfectly. Man this shits been stressful 😂 i appreciate you good sir
Glad to hear you got it sorted!
Nice - thanks, Darren!
My pleasure!
is the unit powered by the usb-c when playing in simulator? or do i need the Li-po connected?
I haven’t tested to see if it can be powered by usb alone, I just leave the battery in there
The elrs menu dont show up. There stand: loading..... 😢 What shoul I do
Maybe your boxer doesn’t have an elrs module
have you:
1) Set the internal RF to CRSF
2) Set the external RF to OFF
?
I got it now thx for help
Hey, Great video! really helped me flash the boxer but I'm not able to bind it with my protek 35, any suggestions for fixing it?
You got you the ELRS version of the Protek 35?
You are doing a super job with your channel. Your content is absolutely relevant and timely.
Have you explored the implications of DJI and security concerns with remote Id now on the person. It feels like RUclipsrs have stayed away from this topic but it’s a great point for sticking with analog.
You won’t be able to use your quads or gear to defend or secure your property if the opposition is in control of the metadata on “hostile” pilot locations and take off points.
No.
Remote ID which includes the pilot’s location is “standard remote id” which is on Pre-Built UAS, or consumer products. If you are wanting to defend or secure your property with a UAS, it will be a “home made”, and the pilots location is not included in the RID message.
Further, if you are “defending” your property, they already know where you are - you are on your property defending it. Thus rendering the entire argument void.
If you are worried about “the opposition”, whoever they may be. As stupid as I think the 2A is (as an Australian) anyone thinking of invading USA would be stupid because not only does USA have the largest Military, it is the most heavily armed population.
Also, if you are so concerned about “hostilities”, you probably need to get off the internet, stop reading and buying into that garbage. It’s not only far stretched, but seriously impacts on mental health.
Living in a constant state of fear, because of what you consume online, is giving “the opposition” exactly what they want.
You just admitted the opposition exists. Opposition is just that.
And certainly being prepared is not going to be considered foolish. I think that is a personal decision everyone needs to consider.
Again my concern here is not invalid as it has already taken place in Eastern Europe. Its not theoretical it has transpired. Should we assume it won’t be done to us?
I used “opposition” in “ to highlight your words. There is no opposition, just one you are made to believe in by online nutters who want you to live in fear.
You can’t compare Russia / Ukraine with the USA. Go do some basic geography, look at those countries on a map, look at USA on a map.
You got to give radio master props for making the charge port USB C. They could have done some proprietary port or micro USB.
They never would have. Would be too expensive.
Hey, I don't see my radio in wifi section on the computer when I enable wifi on the radio, even though I bring my radio as close as possible to the computer. Any suggestions on that? Thank you!
Have you already flashed it?
Don't you need to make sure the receiver is on the same version? Or does it do that automatically? Do you also have to bind the receiver? Or does it do that automatically?
As long as the receiver is on the same major version ie 3.x or 2.x you will be fine. All devices sharing the same binding phrase, same major version and same frequency (ie 2.4ghz) are automatically bound.
@DarrenAllatt thanks, I've just ordered a boxer and I'm new to ELRS so I'm sure I'll have more questions when it arrives. 😄
Thanks for the great video. When adding a second ELRS quad is there anything different to do? Having a difficult time to get my second ELRS receiver to work. First one was simple
why are you adding a second receiver? BF only supports 1

Great concise explanation! I haven't updated my Boxer yet but when I do I'll follow this video.
BTW, what mic are you using? It sounds really crisp.
Rhode Micro, but it’s processing in Final Cut using the Matti Hapooja presets
@@DarrenAllatt Thanks! I wasn't aware of those presets but it looks like he has them for Premiere as well. Nice!
I’m just about ready to buy this radio 🎉
Same process for the Betafpv pro 3 radio?
For some reason I do not have tools in my radio
Should be a very similar process. I don’t have the Lite Radio 3 Pro but it runs EdgeTX so shouldn’t be too different
super thanks great stuff mate looking to buy your course do you offer any doubt sessions too !
Any doubt sessions?
Hi
I have made a mistake when i ordered my receivers.

From ELRS Website
ELRS supports up to 16 channels*. Channels 1-4 are always sent at full-resolution (10-bit). The resolution and update rate of the remaining channels can be configured as follows, based on your requirements:
4x full-resolution (10-bit) channels for sticks (CH1-4) with either:
HYBRID Mode 1x 2-position channel, AUX1 (CH5; Must be used for Arming), 6x 2-position/3-position/6-position (AUX2-7) and 1x 16-position (AUX8), OR
WIDE Mode 1x 2-position channel, AUX1 (CH5; Must be used for Arming), 7x 64 or 128-position channels (AUX2-8). Available via the Lua Script since 2.0.
8x full-resolution (10-bit, ext-limits) with 1x 2-position channel, AUX1
16x full-resolution (10-bit, ext-limits, all half rate) with 1x 2-position channel, AUX1
12x full-resolution (10-bit, ext-limits) with 1x 2-position channel, AUX1, channels AUX2-9 run at half rate.
Hey great Video. I am having some trouble binding my boxer and I am a beginner. I followed your instructions but I didn't flash the firmware bc I ordered it from radiomaster and they said it shipped with the latest firmware(I got it last week). I have a tx16 (ELRS) that works with my drones (Hummingbird F4 V2 and Evoque F5 6s) and I tried setting it up exactly like it and it didn't work. Could you help me please. Thank you in advance.
What version of ELRS is your Boxer, and what version is your TX16S running?
What version is on the Hummingbird and the Nazgûl.
Just because it ships with the “latest” doesn’t mean it doesn’t need to flashed. If you are using a binding phrase then you will need to flash.
Your receivers need to be on the same major version as your radio, for the Boxer that’s v3x
@@DarrenAllatt My boxer says it's version is 2.8.0-factory and my tx16 says its 2.7.1 (a55aff02). The Hummingbird says It's 4.3.1 BTFL and the Nazgul says it's 4.4.0 BTFL. I'm not sure what a binding phrase is or the major version but I am going to try to look it up. I hope I looked in the right places for everything. Also for the packet rate I have it set to 50hz. The instructions on the nazgul said it would give the best range. It works on the tx16 with both drones. Do I need to change this?
@@scaretoster2873 add me on Facebook and we can talk to get you sorted
@@DarrenAllatt I added you 👍
@@DarrenAllatt Hey still haven't heard anything I sent you a message and just wanted to see if you got it.
if i have the Radiomater Boxer 4in1, do i have to do the ELRS configurator step is it already built in?
No, set your internal module to Multi
Ok I did that but when I select express elrs it stay at “loading” and nothing else happens. I can’t flash anything when using usb or WiFi. Via usb it says something related to com port
@@CarlosRodriguez-vg2ob That is the expected behaviour. You dont have an ExpressLRS radio - you have the 4in1 which doesnt have ELRS, so ExpressLRS lua script not loading is the expected behaviour. If you want to run ELRS, you will need an external module plugged into the back, where you follow this tutorial but select External intstead of Internal during the model setup.
@@DarrenAllatt but the box says that it has an internal ELRS module capable of 1000Hz refresh rate. Does that not mean that it has an internal ELRS module and I should be fine?
@@CarlosRodriguez-vg2ob I only have the information you tell me - and in your first comment, you said you have the 4in1
On the ELRS version, the only option for Internal is CRSF
On the 4in1 version, you can select Multi.
If you can select Multi, you have the 4in1 and not the ELRS version.
I smashed my tx16 because it wouldn't work for 2 days. Got a boxer and hopefully it works this time around. If luis script says C and the FC has a solid green and the controller doesnt work in betalflight. What do you think is the problem?
- Hdzero freestyle
- elrs
- tx16 (elrs interna)
Nothing working in betaflight when my tx16 was connected to FC
What do you mean “nothing works in beta flight”
I’d say you have some soldering issues that’s causing a short
when I scroll the internal RF it only gives me MULTI and the type below doesnt have crossfire. Any fix?
perfect just what i needed
I bought the cc2500 by mistake is there a way to put elrs on the radio other than buying a module which I have ordered and am waiting on any help is appreciated
The only way is to buy an External Module. The internal transmitter is not capable of running ELRS
@@DarrenAllatt thank you do you by any chance have a video on setting up the module and binding to an elrs receiver
boxer shipped with 3.2.0 was trying to flash to 3.3.0 but the error message "could not find port". this means i will need to reinstate or update pc driver to proceed?
assuming you've got it plugged in the right USB port (top) and selected the right USB mode, and is it showing up as OpenTX in drop down on ELRS configurator? If not, you will need the CP210x drivers
Hey mate just followed all this on my new Boxer, at the end it says to please update the lua script. I downloaded that, now how do I update it? Cheers for your help!

Just got my new boxer. Do you have to update the TX before use?
When you say update the TX, do you mean update EdgeTX the operating system or the ExpressLRS TX in the radio?
@DarrenAllatt Both. I did learn that TX and RX firmware must match, which was done thanks to your video. Another noob question. Is bench testing throttle unfeasible? After arming, I blip the throttle but the throttle stays on and revs high without my input.
@@sleepingpanda8927 yes that’s an expected behaviour of “air mode” which you want to leave on

Hi Rob
That’s a normal behaviour,
Can you open the LUA script and it all works as it should apart from this error message?
I’m having this same exact problem. What was the fix to get it to stay at 250Hz?

You don’t have the ExpressLRS version of the radio, you have the multi protocol version.
So you can’t use ELRS, and you will need to get an external module.

Ive got the newest edgetx on my boxer, however i cannot update express. Its says com port does not exists.
Which USB mode are you selecting?
@Darren Allatt thanks for your reply! I should have updated this comment, I've got the flash completed by building and selecting wifi, the problem seems to be my laptop! It says that the com port doesn't exist or failed to communicate along those lines. after researching and downloading older drivers just for expresslrs those ended in the same way. It appears my laptop closes the port after it being open for so long or something along those lines because the download worked it gave me another com port, com4, before the flash can be finished it's almost like the it gets ended by the computer. It's a new HP 15. with an older processor core3. It came in windows s mode, I had to take it out of safe mode just to install programs.
@Darren Allatt I flashed edgetx first on the same laptop with the same USB-C cord, there's something else I did that was bad though, I didn't finish model setup and open elrs lua before I tried to flash express. And because of that I wonder if I soft bricked it.
