This is a high-power, long-range, and highly reliable 915MHz wireless data transmission high-frequency head, designed for professional drones, remote control systems, and industrial applications that require ultra-long distance, low latency, and strong anti-interference data links.

1. FPV Racing and Long-Range Drones: Supports beyond-visual-line-of-sight flight control and telemetry data transmission over distances exceeding 10 kilometers.

2. Industrial Application Drones: Such as agricultural spraying, mapping, and inspection drones, requiring stable communication in complex environments.

3. Long-Range Remote Control Models: Vehicles, boats, robots, and other applications demanding strong penetration capability and anti-interference performance.

4. Specialized Industrial Control: Serves as a compact, high-power wireless data relay or control link module.

• 10W Ultra-High Transmission Power: Provides link budget and obstacle penetration capabilities far exceeding conventional products, achieving extreme range and stability.

• 915MHz Gold Frequency Band: Combines ultra-long propagation distance with strong diffraction/penetration capabilities, outperforming the 2.4GHz band.

The ELRS-915M-TX high-frequency head features a set of relay-compatible interfaces for user selection, with its base compatible with all Micro (also known as JR or SLIM) remote controls available on the market. The interface and design are shown in the figure below.

Within the compact JR interface standard dimensions, the system integrates up to 10W of transmission power. To achieve stable performance at this extreme level, the design team redefined the high-frequency head's structural design. By combining an aluminum alloy fin heat sink, an efficient turbo fan, a metal casing, and a 10W RF PA chip with dedicated heat dissipation alloy, they created a product that integrates efficient heat dissipation, robust protection, and strong anti-interference capabilities. This ensures reliable performance for ultra-long-range navigation in harsh environments.

The ELRS-915M-TX high-frequency head is designed to receive only Crossfire Serial Data Protocol (CRSF) signals by default. The remote control's high-frequency interface must support CRSF signal output. Using the OpenTX remote control system as an example, this guide demonstrates how to configure the remote to output CRSF signals and control the ELRS high-frequency head with a LUA script.

In the OpenTX system, select MODELSELECTION to access the MODELSETUP interface. Here, disable Internal RF (set to OFF), enable External RF, and set the output mode to CRSF, as shown in the figure below.

Connect the ELRS-915M-TX high-frequency head correctly and configure the remote control as the CRSF output for the External RF head as described above.

To adjust the power, refresh rate, and frequency of the ELRS high-frequency head, you need to use the OpenTX system's LUA script, as shown below.

1. Copy the official LUA script ELRS.lua to the remote control's SD card, located in the Scripts/Tools folder.
2. On the OpenTX system, press and hold either the SYS button (as found on RadioMaster T8 remote controls) or the MENU button (as used in Frsky Taranis devices).
3. Using the X9D remote control or similar devices, access the SD-HC CARD interface. In this interface, select the ELRS.lua script and execute it.
4. If the LUA script runs successfully, the interface will appear as shown below. (Default factory setting: 5W)

• Using LUA scripts, you can configure parameters such as Rate (refresh rate), Ratio (feedback packet rate), and Power (output power). All LUA script functions are detailed in Table 1 below.

Note: The official LUA script ELRS.lua can be downloaded from the ELRS support website (URLs are provided in the information section).

The ELRS high-frequency head uses the ExpressLRSV3.5.0 official protocol in its factory firmware and has no binding phrase configured. Therefore, the receiving end must also be V3.0.0 to V3.5.0 and has no binding phrase set.

The frequency steps are as follows

1. Step1: After the receiver is powered on, press the receiver button for a long time. The LED on the receiver will enter the double flash state, indicating that the receiver has entered the frequency matching mode
2. Step2: Install the antenna on the high-frequency head, insert the remote control, and insert the external XT30 port battery (optional). Enter the Express LRS configuration interface, scroll down to find the Bind option, as shown in the figure below.

3. Step3: After pressing the Bind button, the receiver enters a slow flash state and then a normal light state for about 2 seconds, indicating that the frequency reception is successful

The ELRS high-frequency head supports power outputs of 0.5W,1W,2W,5W, and 10W.

The ELRS high-frequency hair transmitter power switching uses a LUA script. Select Power to switch directly between 0.5W,1W,2W,5W, and 10W. For details, see "LUA Script Control".
