Description

BetaFPV Lite receiver is based on the ExpressLRS project, an open-source RC link for RC applications. ExpressLRS aims to achieve the best possible link performance in both speeds, latency, and range. This makes ExpressLRS one of the fastest RC links available while still offering long-range performance.

NANO RX OR LITE RX

What is the major difference between Nano receiver and Lite receiver?

Nano receiver (2.4G version) is the first and (so far) the only receiver with power amplifier (PA+LNA). It has 100mW telemetry output and better sensitivity when longer range. Lite receiver doesn’t have a PA/LNA on them, so its telemetry power is as what the RF chip SX1280 came with 17mW.

Beside, Nano receiver comes with normal external Dipole T antenna. Lite receiver has SMD ceramic antenna and in theory it is not so long range.

High recommend the Nano receiver if the space is enough. On 65-85mm whoop drones with limited space and need light weight, Lite receiver is a better choice.

TOWER ANTENNA OR FLAT ANTENNA

New lite receiver with a flat antenna features a 3mm extra-thin board and 0.53g lightweight, which requires less assembly space on drones with limited space. Besides, solid flat antenna without irregular parts can withstand crashes, making the receiver not so fragile.

Both tower and flat antennas offer excellent control, range, and stability for a superior flight experience. While the gain is nearly identical, the flat antenna boasts better efficiency than the tower antenna. Both versions, V1.1, achieve approximately 600 meters under equal conditions.

FLAT ANTENNA V1.0 & V1.1

Introducing the ELRS Lite Receiver flat antenna V1.1, addressing previous range issues and failsafe concerns. The updated version now achieves a range of 600 meters when paired with the BETAFPV Moxon TX Antenna and BETAFPV Nano TX module. Unlike its predecessor (V1.0), which experienced failsafe at around 100 meters with an RSSI of -95dBm, the V1.1 ensures improved performance for outdoor applications while maintaining excellent functionality for indoor whooping and racing.

KNOW MORE ABOUT EXPRESSLRS

ExpressLRS is an open-source RC link for RC applications. Everyone could find this project on Github or join the discussion in Facebook Group.

ExpressLRS utilizes Semtech Lora SX127x or SX1280 hardware for RX and TX, striving for optimal link performance in speed, latency, and range. With a maximum packet rate of 200 Hz at 900 MHz and an impressive 500Hz at 2.4 GHz via a custom OpenTX build, ExpressLRS stands as one of the fastest RC links, excelling in long-range capabilities. The growing support from various vendors includes radio transmitters with ELRS in stock, drones featuring built-in ELRS receivers, ELRS TX modules for JR bay, and Nano bay options, with BETAFPV contributing to this innovative project by providing a range of ExpressLRS components.

CONFIGURATION & BIND

ExpressLRS uses the Crossfire serial protocol (AKA CRSF protocol) to communicate between the receiver and the flight controller board. So make sure your flight controller board supports the CRSF serial protocol. Next, we use the flight controller with Betaflight firmware to show how to set up the CRSF protocol.

The connection between the ELRS Lite receiver and the FC board is shown below.

Enable the corresponding UART (e.g. UART3 below) as a Serial Rx on Betaflight Configurator “Ports” tab.

On the “Configuration” tab, select “Serial-based receiver” on the “Receiver” panel, and select “CRSF” as the protocol. Telemetry is optional here and will reduce your stick update rate due to those transmit slots being used for telemetry.

The Lite receiver comes with offically major release V1.1.0 protocol and no Binding Phrase inlcuded. Lite receiver could enter binding status by power on/off three times.

  • Plugin and unplug Lite receiver three times;
  • Make sure the LED is doing a quick double blink, which indicates the receiver is in bind mode;
  • Make sure the RF TX module or radio transmitter enter binding status, which sends out a binding pulse;
  • If the receiver has a solid light, it’s bound.

PACKAGE INCLUDES

  • 1 x BETAFPV ELRS Lite receiver
  • 2 x Spare shrink tube
  • 4 x 30awg silicon connection wires (1 black, 1 red, 1 white, 1 yellow)
