  • Expert Advice: Not sure which receiver you need? No worries! Our team is happy to advise you on the best option for your setup. Generally, we recommend the ELRS receiver for its reliability and range.

Using DJI FPV Air Units

If your drone is equipped with a DJI FPV Air Unit, or models like O3 or O4, you can use your DJI FPV remote controller directly. No additional receiver installation is needed for these configurations, making it a plug-and-play experience!

Receiver Options We Can Install:

  1. ELRS (ExpressLRS): Our recommended option for most setups due to its range, reliability, and growing community support.
  2. Crossfire: Ideal for long-range flights and pilots looking for robust signal performance in challenging environments.
  3. FrSky: A popular choice for those who already use FrSky radios.

How to Request a Receiver Installation

To request a receiver installation:

DIY Installation Option
