A day after Christmas 2023 and I Just ordered a Ranger for my TX16S,as my old Happy Model ES24 pro TX was not wanting to update. I spent (actually wasted) a full day messing with it. But then it accidently got crushed by a large hammer and it ended falling into my recycle bin. It was a great feeling too!

pretty impressive results so far - especially the IR images and the frequency analyser spot on 13:23 Outstanding level of review - the depth and amount of points checked up to the radio heating after 30 minutes. Not sure where to go cause Zorro and TX16S need different modules as there is not really an adaptor so far. I love these displays on the back but not worth considering that I might be caught and need to get one of each. Hope the affiliate link will work for you. Just to let you know: as for know radiomaster seems to have found a way around the usual EU customs that would not allow to ship them to the EU due to missing CE certification and no LBT feature. Mine was rejected before, the full radio incl. elrs but somehow my buddy had gotten his this week via a different country so they must ship them throughhh a loophole into the EU and from there to the customers EU country cause otherwise it would end up the same way. Therefore I will try one last order this week and hope it gets throught cause each time I have to go to the customs costs me 2 hours at least driving, waiting, disusccing and fighting and driving home which is always a mess and is already a trouble maker cause usually if I have to appear it is about radio frequency and certificates and mostly those that are forbidden. Right now it looks they have find a way but not sure how long this gap might be open. Chapeau for your outstanding review.

I'm glad I purchased the cheapest Zorro version, instead of paying more for the ELRS version. My reasoning was that in the future, if I did indeed venture into using ELRS I would have a much better selection of products to simply snap onto the back of the Zorro, products that have more options and higher power output than the built in module on the ELRS version Zorro. Now that Radiomaster themselves have brought out these modules, I'm so happy I saved that money. These look like a great option, not just for the Zorro but for all compatible radios.

Zorro 4in1 and ELRS controllers always had exactly the same price to the last cent. If you were asked to pay higher price for ELRS version, that's a dodgy store right there. I'd never buy 4in1, absolutely no use for me. ELRS was the way to go, and when I wanted higher power output, I simply bought this nano version which is totally inexpensive. Of course, it's additional expense... but I do not use it with Zorro only, I slap it on my Tango II since it's 3 times better and higher quality controller than Zorro. That way I can still use it when flying my ELRS quads. So, no... ELRS version of Zorro was definitely not a waste of money. It costed exactly the same, $179 CAD for 4in1, $179 CAD for ELRS version. If you don't believe check Rotor Village for the pricing. And it was always like that, never changed.

Great review as always. Question Elrs uses 2.4ghz. Here in Brazil some prison uses cellphone blocks. Where I fly has a prison nearby. For that I can't use any 2.4ghz radio I try Futaba, Spektrum, and Frsky. My radios today. But I need to move to Jeti radios. I will try 900mghz. Do tou think the Elrs will work in my case?

Hi sir. just want to clarify a doubt from you. Rather that buying Boxer TX internal ELRS version(140$) can i buy cc2500 version which is (100$) then buy external ELRS micro module (40$) which costs the same and gives more optional protocols at the same time. and need to know whether both internal ELRS and external micro ELRS module specs are same and acts as same or will there be any cons in perfomance?

In your thermal shot, it looked like the Ranger Micro was in a TX16S and being powered by just the bay. Was the TX16S a MKI or MKII unit? Are you sure the lower 1W measurement wasn't due to it being starved for power? Thanks!

As you are UK based , could you do a video on the ELRS 100mw limit in the EU as all videos on receivers and transmitters are US centric. What's better for penitration between ELRS / Crossfire or even DJI 03 Air RX/TX at that power.

I agree with your point in full, but I’d just like to throw out there that my HM 2.4 pro module has been flawless, even though my smoothbrained-self forgot to put the antenna on it for a good 10 minutes on at least 2 occasions. Not supporting or dissuading either product - though admittedly I’d probably go for the RadioMaster today (and will if my HM ever let’s me down) - just saying, sometimes the loudest voices are those that are most unfortunate and upset. HM ELRS has been great for a lot of us, so we spend time complaining about other things in FPV. Plenty of frustrations to go around… 😂
