HappyModel CrazyF411 AIO Flight Controller (ELRS / 20A / 2-4S)

The CrazyF411 ELRS flight controller comes with an integrated UART 2.4GHz ExpressLRS receiver and 20A Blheli_s ESC (Bluejay firmware pre-installed) which could support 2-4S. Bigger Mosfet could support high to 20A currents and would be better for a 2-4S toothpick drone or long-range FPV drone. And because the 2.4GHz ExpressLRS receiver is equipped with the SX1280 radio frequency chip with high sensitivity, high packet rate, and low latency, this flight controller is the one that all Race/Freestyle pilots needed.

BINDING PROCEDURE:

1. Supply power to the flight controller by plug USB, wait until the green LED on the FC is off, immediately turn off the power, and then repeat again the above steps. When the FC is powered on for the third time, the green LED light will start to double-flash, which means that the RX enters the binding mode
2. Please make sure your ExpressLRS tx module firmware is v3.x.x. And go to ExpressLRS.lua from “TOOLS” menu of your radio transmitter. Then hit [Bind] to binding with the onboard ExpressLRS receiver. The green LED should blinking slowly first, then turn to solid, that means binding was successful. If the green led still keep double flash after binding, please change Model Match tab value from “off” to “on” or from “on” to “off”

Receiver LED status meanings:

Green LED solid means bind successfully or RC link established; Green LED double-flash means get into bind mode; Green LED flash slowly means no RC signal input from TX module; Green LED continuous flash fast means ExpressLRS wifi enabled.

NOTE:

• ”ET” and “ER” pads are used for communication with ESP8285, you can connect “TX” of FTDI tool to “ET” pad and connect “RX” of FTDI tool to “ER” pad for upgrade onboard UART ELRS receiver firmware. Need to short connect “+5V” and “E5” pads before that.
