The XR1 receiver supports 2.4GHz or Sub-G 900MHz. If you have a Dual-Band antenna, it allows for use of either frequency without needing to change antennas.

4.3. Proċedura Vinkolanti

The XR1 receiver comes with ExpressLRS v3.5.1 pre-installed. To bind the receiver to your ExpressLRS transmitter:

  1. Power on the receiver three times, cycling power quickly between each power-on. The LED on the receiver should flash rapidly, indicating it is in binding mode.
  2. On your ExpressLRS compatible transmitter, navigate to the ExpressLRS LUA script or menu and select the "Bind" option.
  3. Once bound, the LED on the receiver will turn solid, indicating a successful connection.

For detailed binding instructions specific to your transmitter, refer to your transmitter's user manual or the official ExpressLRS documentation.

4.4. Firmware Updates and Configuration (Wi-Fi)

The XR1 features built-in Wi-Fi for convenient firmware updates and configuration. To access the WebUI:

  1. Qawwa fuq ir-riċevitur.
  2. Connect to the Wi-Fi network broadcast by the receiver (usually named "ExpressLRS_RX" followed by a unique identifier).
  3. Iftaħ a web browser u naviga għal http://10.0.0.1.
  4. Mill- WebUI, you can update firmware, change settings, and configure your receiver.

5. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi

5.1. Powering On and Initial Check

After successful setup and binding, power on your model. The receiver's LED should illuminate solid, indicating a stable connection to your transmitter. Perform a range check and verify all control surfaces respond correctly before flight.

5.2. Telemetrija

The XR1 receiver provides 100mW telemetry RF power, allowing your transmitter to receive real-time data from your model, such as RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator), link quality, and battery voltage (if configured). Refer to your flight controller and transmitter documentation for telemetry setup and display.

5.3. Kompatibilità

The XR1 receiver is compatible with all existing Radiomaster ExpressLRS radios and modules. Ensure your transmitter module is also running a compatible ExpressLRS firmware version.
