Happymodel ExpressLRS ES915TX 915MHz Ultra Long Range Transmitter Module for Radiomaster TX16S Jumper T12 T16 T18 Transmitter
OVERVIEW:
ES915TX module is a set of long-distance 915mhz wireless transmission equipment developed and designed based on the open source software ExpressLRS. This set of modules is characterized by ultra-long range, stable operation and low latency. The module is compatible with most Opentx remote controllers, especially suitable for Radiomaster TX16S and Jumper T12 T16 T18 series remote controllers, basically plug and play. We have specially customized the heat sink for the transmitter module, which can help the transmitter module to operate stably under high power conditions.
The receiver module part is very small and exquisite, weighing only 0.70g without the antenna, which is very suitable for all kinds of Whoop fpv drone and Toothpick drone.

1. Supply power to the ES915RX, wait until the red and green LEDs on the ES915RX are off, immediately turn off the power, and then repeat again the above steps. When the ES915RX is powered on for the third time, the red LED light will start to flash quickly, which means that the ES915RX enters the binding mode
2. Insert the ES915TX module to Radio transmitter, and choose External RF mode to CRSF protocol, then you can find ELRS menu from the Radio systems, Enter into ELRS and press [Bind], the Red and Green LEDS on the ES915RX module will getting to be solid if bind successfully.
I really like this radio but I had a gimbal stick pull out without any pulling on it. I've had this happen with other name brand radios so it's not a surprise or let down. A little super glue and right back at it. It feels great! I love the full sized gimbals! I have the zorro and the boxer but I think this one is the right fit for me.
Handy as a second transmitter for travel, tiny whoops, etc
Surprisingly good for the price especially with ELRS. It has just enough switches that I can do most of what I can with the TX16S, and it's so much easier to throw in a bag and go. My only wish is that I could put the thumb-grippies style of stick ends on it easily (and still remove them for storage), but maybe someone will come up with an adapter or similar. Next step is to try a Gemini ELRS nano module and see what kind of range is possible on that.
