Flysky FS-i6 / FS-i6X TBS Crossfire Mod and Frsky R9m Mod // Long Range Flysky Mod

[@k1ortia]

One of the most overlooked and leftout radios in the hobby to be honest. Most of us started out with one these, i still have one, and it still does 3km range for fun.. nothing but praises for this radio.

[@GoatZilla]

Most of us lol

[@k1ortia]

@Focus Good. It's a great little radio. Very underated.

That controller is awesome. People have just to admit it, it looks like the first gameboy!

[@klopossa2]

Extremely useful..TY..I HAVE THAT RADIO. Got w 250 Eachine.. The crash ..so real, no Hollywood. I tested a mod a day ago and broke 6 props before I sw to unbreakables. But I know I need shielding for that vtx now.

[@zkazzay]

I didn't understood something, to use the modules (both TBS and RM) you dont need the multi-protocol board right? We only need the multi-protocol board if we want to bind to FrSky RX right? or do we always need to FLYSKY - Multi protocol - Modules?

[@anastasioskosmidis1408]

reminds me that every time i have a great chance to fly my quad and test something new like diff props or setups there is always something that can go bad to ruin my day

[@rbmwiv]

I hate ripping pads off, it’s a PITA! Great video. Best mod I did for my transmitter was the battery mod. Buying AA gets expensive. I have a 5 volt converter hooked into mine with a xt60 and haven’t spent a dime on AA. Great video.

[@josevicentellacer3144]

Hello, I have seen your video: Flysky FS-i6 / FS-i6X TBS Crossfire Mod and Frsky R9m Mod // Long Range Flysky Mod, and I have a Flysky station and I wanted to put the R9m module on it, but does it really work with the signal? PPM ?, and at the station, is there any kind of telemetry received ?, I would appreciate your answer. A greeting and thanks in advance

[@invicto8138]

Good question

[@berendbotje8792]

How did you configure it in the flysky radio ?

[@jasperstehouwer8898]

you dont have to remove the trainer port because the trainer port outputs ppm 5v and gnd

[@jakester142]

Shouldn't there be ppm output in the trainer plug?

[@ChrisLBradly]

my thoughts the same...maybe he decide to go inside for power also

[@samurphy]

Yes. There's also power and ground. Power is a regulated 5v, which is well within the range of the crossfire module. This seems overly complex when you could just make a trainer port adapter and skip the interior modification.

[@schwuzi]

Hey great mod! I've installed the r9m a few weeks ago and it's working great with my drone! I have the 14ch mod on my I6, but there are only 6 channels on the PPM output as it seems. Did you manage to get more than 6 channels via PPM out?

[@wormboy72]

Franz Rupert did you managed to sort it out?

[@adnanalmohisin4900]

Franz if wouldn’t mind how did you bind it ..?!

[@schwuzi]

@@adnanalmohisin4900 Look at the instructions for the R9M, you do the binding from the R9 Module. The receiver has a bind button.

[@adnanalmohisin4900]

Franz Rupert Did what they say at instructions sheet but still can’t bind it

[@schwuzi]

@@adnanalmohisin4900 1. Power on the R9M while holding the F/S button on the module (it's the only button there is). The green LED will light up and the red one will start flashing 2. Connect the receiver to a battery while pressing the bind button on your receiver. The red LED on the receiver will start flashing, which means binding is completed. 3. Reboot the module and the receiver. If the green LED on the receiver starts flashing when you move your sticks on the transmitter, it is receiving commands from it and is ready to go.

[@macieks.5959]

Hey - what that you are presenting on 11:57 - i got lost. And since ur using flysky radio, are you using flysky receiver aswell ? or is it TBS receiver installed in the wing ?

[@AliJimmer]

This idea would only practically work with TBS Crossfire Tx or Crossfire Tx Lite and not the Crossfire Tx Micro because you'd need another more expensive radio with OpenTX to configure the module same with the R9M then you could connect it up to the FlySky i6 but what's the point you've a better radio to use the Crossfire Tx Micro or R9M module to use them with? Where as the Crossfire Tx (standard) and Lite you can configure without a radio. The multi protocol module I'm sure it works no problem. If anyone has a FlySky i6 looking to get long range then get the crossfire lite unless you want bluetooth telemetry connectivity to another device then get the standard Crossfire Tx

[@schwuzi]

You can configure the R9M without the radio aswell. At least the power output and binding with a receiver.

[@AliJimmer]

@@schwuzi how can you do that on the R9M?

[@schwuzi]

@@AliJimmer What do you want to do? Look for the manual online. The 2 white sliding buttons on the R9M set the power level. There are 4 different combinations with how you can have them (for example the left slider up and the right slider down) For binding you hold the white button on the module and the binding button on your receiver.

[@AliJimmer]

@@schwuzi I had read the manual but didn't spot the part on setting the output power by DIP switches thats class thanks

[@HWiebePipes]

Aren’t all those pins available through the trainer port already? No need to solder to the main board. No need to even crack open the transmitter for wiring at least.

[@SeatFX]

Way easier then I expected, great work! Can't thank you enough!

[@smesui1799]

Did you decide to come-up with this idea because the iRangerX iRX6 multi-protocol modulue is no longer available for the FlySky FS-i6(i6x) radios ? ...

[@franklyfpv1909]

Awesome!! Just i recently bought a taranis frsky x9d and a tbs micro.....for the poor range on my flysky. If i see before i don,t buy the taranis, thanks for this!! Great job!!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@ojkolsrud1]

Do you have to do anything in the firmware, or is PPM out always mimicking what ever you're doing on the channels? Shouldn't you turn off the internal module, or somehow deactivate it? No reason to use battery power and cause interference (especially if you're using another protocol on 2.4GHz). Thanks for this, I want Crossfire, but I don't see a reason to upgrade the radio itself=)

[@marciel5766]

Nice video!! Do you use student mode on the radio? That would deactivate the internal module from flysky and just output the ppm signal. The only problem is that the expo of the radio would be deactivate either.

[@Wtf_drone_productions]

[@mece66]

I'm really interested in latency testing, especially with R9M and compared to same module on an frsky radio. I'm considering R9M if it works well with this mod.

[@MusicOnlythebest]

Is such a mode suitable for racing drones or only for wings? It's about the time delay of the signal

[@konradwiniarski]

The latency of the radio modules themselves you will find under the link. To send entire PPM frame from radio to TX you need 16..25ms (depends on amount of channels per frame). So add radio module latency + PPM and you have estimated complete link latency (not including radio and operator (; ). 40ms it's not bad for cruising with planes or wings but for racing or freestyle... hmm, might be disturbing.

[@FPVREVIEWS]

The newer fsx model has better latency

[@nmrlab3807]

@Drone Mesh Very interesting mod indeed. Do you think it is possible to use "Happymodel ExpressLRS ES900TX 915MHz" instead?

[@vishnuchaudhary4425]

Good day quick Question you mention that you spend time figuring out your mixing meaning what? and how you accomplish that?

[@lewisbyron1070]

Excellent tutorial my friend. Quick one. With the R9 module can we get away with just routing the ppm and running off an external 2s battery?

[@S700KYFPV]

I had the UFPV Nirvana but it’s a POS. I bought the i6X, a switch to isolate power and my intention is to remove my TBS Crossfire unit from its JR module, stick it to the back of this radio so it’s super low profile, then use the 3 pin lead TBS supply for power, ground and ppm. With 4 x enerloop 2.5a batteries this thing should last forever. Low latency for racing. Crossfire for freestyle ☺️

[@alkks6178]

Hello friend.I came across your video with fsi 6 and TBS Crossfire . Did you manage to launch the drone ?

[@hbnation1159]

Please answer the binding question... People, including myself, want to know how you will bind with the receiver if you only have the flysky radio

[@vampcaff]

The crossfire is the tx. You bind the crossfire to your tbs crossfire rx.

[@DeimosTV]

Hey Drone Mesh, thank you for this great vid. But one Question is open. I have the same transmitter and the r9m with 3 RX. But how did I can bind them. I have search now for 5 hours and tried a lot. But its never bind. How did it works? Thank you :)

[@adnanalmohisin4900]

Me neither did you find the solution, if so please help.

[@Bertoslav]

Apparently you need to update their firmwares to the flex versions. You can do a serial pass through in your flight controller to your receiver and then to your module to update them. Then reconnect all and bind.

Are you able to have RSSI or LQ on-screen with this mod?

[@serdaruslan2380]

How can you make settings about r9m from flysky? How can u bind?

[@ChrisLBradly]

With R9M using PPM mode power changing and binding can be done with rear switches and function (F/S - bind) button...see manual for details

[@adnanalmohisin4900]

Did that but nothing happened stil not binding

[@franklyfpv1909]

Will the theme of the connection via ppm influence the range? or this is not relevant and the crossfire works the same in terms of range as for example a taranis? I mean, the module is working at 915 / 868Mhz or going to ppm works at 2.4ghz? again, thanks pornlo what are you doing and sorry if the question is not good but I am a beginner

[@marc_frank]

no it won't. ppm is just a way to let the crossfire know where the sticks are. it then converts that to it's own protocol called crsf, which works a little different than ppm, but is essentially used for the same purpose. the frequency of the link has nothing to do with the protocol used to communicate. an example would be talking english with a low voice and talking english with a high voice. the protocol would be the english language and the frequency is the pitch of the voice. lower tones can go further and bend around objects, but they can both use english. ppm = spanish, crsf = english, here only the amount of information per word changes, but they can both be talked with a high and low voice. i'm not so sure about the following: 2.4ghz and 868mhz both use amplitude manipulation to transport information. the transmit at different power levels to represent a 1 and a 0. the human voice is much more suffisticated in that it both uses loudness and tone to express data. rf links use only loudness (amplitude). tone = frequency

Loved the explanation.. I'll simplify it a little.. Protocol does not change range only latency... The frequency and output power is what gives the range..

Marc Frank thank you very much for the explanation, I have understood it much better thanks to the detailed explanation, very good example, thanks!!

What about T6? Nobody ever talks about fs-t6! Why not?
