Which receiver?

Could any of you lovely people recommend a small sbus receiver that’s compatible with the frsky xjt module and that would work with an eachine wizard x220 fpv drone.

ive never built or flown an fpv drone before and had this x220 sitting in its box for at least the last 5 years :confused: trying to figure out ibus/sbus/ppm which firmware and general compatibility its hurting my tiny brain.

Thanks

These guys should know :smile:

Not me… I know nothing about FrSky… @Earwig is your man.

Personally I’d ditch FrSky and go ELRS… but that’s just me :slight_smile:

ELRS can do SBUS now can’t it?

Yes

Sorry, also no help here. My dalliance with Frsky right at the beginning of my FPV journey was enough to convince me I wanted as little too do with it as possible.

After the D8 Nanohawk I only got one more RX connected for myself and that was such a Herculean task that at the first sign of trouble when attempting the next I ditched it and switched everything over to TBS.

Sorry.

TBS Crossfire or ELRS. Seriously don’t waste your time with FrSKY. :+1:t2:

TBS Crossfire seems to be out of stock every where, i only ask about frsky receivers as i already have the xjt module from way back.

Sell it :+1:t2:

11

That’s why if starting now and not using crossfire you use ELRS.

12

I’m afraid there is a clue there, :man_shrugging:

Time to ditch it and learn ELRS :+1:

Any ELRS tx/rx recommendations?

14

For the radio I’d probably say boxer. For Rx happymodel or radiomaster have been solid for me. Tbh had loads of brands and all been fine

15

I’ve been running happymodel ep1 and ep2 and the diversity rxes. All are good.

I have both happy model and jumper tx modules. Again both just fine.

16

What about the new Radiomaster Compact? ELRS version and ideal for beginners.

Depends if on budget and what else in future they’d like to do with it I guess :slight_smile:

I have one of these coming tomorrow, HobbyRC got them in today. For the price they seem a great starter controller but if you are used to the larger style ones such as TX16s or Spectrum ones you might find them a little small, if so go for a Boxer.

If you want, I’m happy to answer some questions about it once i have it.

You’re the first person I know who’s got one, does look a good buy, really does :slight_smile:

Bugger just got the Jumper T Lite V2 Transmitter delivered today form HobbyRC as I was too impatient!
