This is the updated version for Darwin AIO. We integrated the ELRS receiver on the FC to make it easier to apply to the mini Drone. ESC adopts Bluejay firmware and is compatible with 1-3S Lipo input, and the maximum current reaches 17A.FC provides 2 sets of Uarts interfaces and at the same time provides various external devices interfaces such as SBUS, Softserial, CTR, BUZZ, RGB and so on , which perfectly solves the problem of insufficient quantity of F411 Uarts.

Learn about ExpressLRS:
ExpressLRS is an open source Radio Link for Radio Control applications, all of you can find these projects on GitHub.
it is based on the fantastic Semtech SX127x/SX1280 LoRa hardware combined with an Espressif or STM32 Processor. Using LoRa modulation as well as reduced packet size it achieves best in class range and latency. It achieves this using a highly optimized over-the-air packet structure, giving simultaneous range and latency advantages. It supports both 900 MHz and 2.4 GHz links, each with their own benefits. 900 MHz supports a maximum of 200 Hz packet rate, with higher penetration. Under 2.4GHz frequency bands,OpenTX system supports amazing 500Hz.
The Vantac ELRS Lite TX Module
Darwin Vantac ELRS Lite TX Module is based on open source project.
2.4G transmit module, the aim of the ExpressLRS 2.4G aims to achieve comprehensive performance in speed, latency and range. In addition, a convenient feature of this module is the built-in WiFi module, which enables wireless connection to upgrade firmware. Darwin Vantac ELRS Lite TX Modules are compatible with remotes with lite-style module bays.
The specifications of the TX Module:
Packet refresh rate: 50HZ/100HZ/150HZ/250HZ/500HZ
RF output power:10mW/25mW/50mW/100mW/250mW/500mW
Frequency bands: 2.4GHz ISM
Input voltage: 5V~12V
USB port: Type-C
Darwin ELRS 2.4G TX Module use lite-style TX Module bays and it is compatible with the following remote control:
Update process is cumbersome, better if done with the VTX out of the quad. Also the update port is much flimsier than the earlier 2 antenna versions, IMO.
I use this mont for all my builds with a DJI O3 system. It comes with all the hardware nessassery and I like how is provides a small gap between the frame and the air unit so you can run wires under it. With all that said, it is still very low profile to fit on builds that use short 20mm standoffs too.
This thing is really fun and I haven't had to touch the PIDs at all. Super maneuverable on high rates and really mellow on low rates. I'm teaching my six year old grandson how to fly and he's doing great with it then raise the rates and I doing freestyle in my livingroom. Top off the performance with Newbeedrones awesome customer service and you can't lose. Newbeedrone is now my go to site for whoop stuff.
