This is why we all subscribed to this channel. Simplicity at its best 👌.
I'm absolutely clueless on Betaflight but this video does break down many of the myths regarding set up. I have the old Jumper T8SG radio on deviation but the Radiomaster with Open TX looks a great option. Thank you for this video Steve.
Wow I just spent 24 hours solid trying to get my Pocket to work with a NANO ERLS module and couldn't as it appears it was in some kind of training mode.
This video gave me enough info on what I should be seeing to actually end this madness. lol
For this I am greatful... you made the world a better place!
You are the best CAPTAIN
Very clear and easy-to-understand video keep it up, Uncle
Thank you 😍
Best video I’ve seen to set up Radio master pocket
Excellent job, my friend
When i cant connect. Always fall back to this channel thank u.
Just bought this radio for use with a Mobula 6 ELRS. I'm as excited to get the radio as i am to get the drone. It seems like a banger of a radio for the price.
Very good instructional video. Thanks for this video, it will be easy to follow for us newcomers to the sport. 😊
a very useful must to see video for any buyer for this new tx .. thanks as always 👍🏻
Excellent Tutorial Video. Thank You Steve.
Thank you! You're the only one on UA-cam who took the time to do this. Much appreciated from a newbie like myself.
Thank you so much! This video is very concise and really helped me to setup my new Pocket. I got it all setup and paired with my new Heewing Hunter RC airplane.
perfect setup video !! cant wait till monday hopefully weather doesnt mess up shipping time
Thank you so much.I'm really worried about how to set up and bind this rc in the first time.I hope you can make more video like this for beginner like me
Thank so much man for the very easy to follow and detailed guide
Amazing clear instructions! You deserve more likes and subscribers. Thanks, man.
Thank you for the superclear explaining!
Im new, busy with first build..
Have to order the vtx , and then im going to set life to my creation.
I thought the speedybee computer thing was a day work..pff such a relief for me, the analog huminoide 😅
Thank you for the step-by-step guide. Thank you for this video Steve.
Thank you for the step-by-step guide. This was so helpful because I was going bananas. The only other thing that I would add is to upgrade the Sim card that’s in there. You only need a super small one like a 16 GB because my SD card failed with the one that came in the box, so I had a little bit more of a learning curve.
Is there data that needs to be transferred or just swap when new ?
This tutorial saved me hours of trouble shooting. Thanks for the good video.
Great run through - thanks!
great review captain
I bought the cc2500 version of this controller so I could use with my frsky drones and this video definitely helped with the only difference really being the binding process which you simply do within page 2 after turning the internal rf on and to frsky d 8 for my case there is a bind/bnd option there on page 2 that after the drone is in bind mode you simply click bnd on page 2 that’s it well of course after binding go through bf like cap shows here. This video definitely helped and saved me some time so very much appreciated cap as always a great video and very informative.
thank you 🙏 I looked for this video
Very useful, thankyou.
thank you, your information is clear and simple, keep it up, I hope you are well. God bless you
Super Helpful thank you sir!!!
It drives me bonkers that this radio got full size 18650 when the zorro got those little baby batteries 😡😡😡
I'm still surprised no one's introduced an internal battery mod to alleviate that particular problem!
At vaping i even have 21700 LiIon Batteries, so 18650 isnt even fullsize 😉 and i am sure there are even bigger LiIon Batteries 😮
I have some lifepo4 that came from transformers i put in my power wheelchair lol works amazing now!@@Eckus
i am excited I just got this remote.
Спасибо, дорогой! Обнимаю, как брата! Удачи тебе и здоровья! Thank you, darling! Hugs like a brother! Good luck and health!🤝
Thank for this video
Anytime i want to know some about a drone you are my go to for information 1st
Well Done!
Very cool
Thanks so much captn! Got my pocket elrs coming soon after a day of frustration with a taranis qx7 and a module lol never again
Newbie here, I bought this pocket controller and I am having trouble getting it to work. Great video by the way, I followed this video step by step and I was able to connect to the receiver but nothing works. I’ll try again by connecting to express LRS software to see what happens
It works👍
im dont speak english as well as i want, but your videos are simple to understand even if you dont know english language well!
_thank u captain❤❤❤
Hiya. This video seems pretty well put together and it helped me with one issue im having but im wondering if anyone can point me to some advice on setting up a fixed wing plane profile on this remote.
NICE
Great easy to follow video ,what drone are you using In the video ?
Hello, good day, excellent video, I bought the RadioMaster Pocket to bind all my drones, I managed to bind my Pavo20, but when trying to bind the CetusX I followed the steps and I have not been able to do it, I want to know if this is compatible and perhaps explain what the CetusX bind process with RadioMaster Pocket, thank you very much for your help
Thank you so much for the support. Alone i will never do it hahaha
I have the same drone and radio of course but my timer doesn’t start on TH% until the throttle is used and then I’m stops when the throttle is down. Also does your Flywoo beep? I trted to setup a beeper on mine and doesn’t work.
How about changing default switch positions warnings?
I should have watched this video first.lol. Another concise and clear explanation. Are you a teacher perchance?
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 shows you have taught before. one question my drone will arm with the radio but when I connect to betaflight i am not getting any response when I move my sticks. i know I am doing something wrong just not sure what. i wish I had someone near me whom i could ask questions of but I have not found anyone as of yet
Captain Drone, can you make a video showing how to setup 2-stage arming of the Pocket? I can't find anything like that on YT. Just saw a FB post of some poor bloke that cut himself pretty good with an accidental arming,. Thanks!
Hello Captain Drone. Can the Meteor85 be connected to the RadioMaster Pocket? I mean, do both ELRS protocols have the same version? If not, is it possible to update the quad receiver software?
Thank you for making this tutorial but I want to add that the timer is best to use mode: ON (started when activated and stop when deactivated) or Ths (started after throttle is raised and switch activated) but to simplify ON is better.
Using Th% really not recommended and will ruin your time. At my early flight I am using Th% following your guide and I depend on my TX and not paying attention to OSD for when I should land and the battery dropped till below 3 V and VTX die.
Th% could count double your true flight time. And honestly I dont understand why did you recommend to use Th%. ON is easiest for everyone.
Just ordered the Pocket and ERLS rx quad. Beginner. Just playing around with a micro FPV indoor 1s quad with non-Betaflight FC. Thanks for the video tutorial. Question regarding the mode switch. Can it be set up in reverse than what you demonstrated? That is, SB-up as Angle mode, no change for Horizon mode, and SB-down for Acro. Betaflight Configurator supposedly gives you the option to set up "Rate Profile Settings". Would like to set up an "indoors" rate profile. Throttle limit, expo and control(Roll, Pitch, Yaw) expo, max rates. Possible to set the custom rate profile to another switch. Basically a Angle and either custom active or off. If possible might use the remaining 3 way and add couple custom rate profiles to link with Angle Mode active on SB.
Hi Captain 🫡! I was able to connect one drone 😀. I flew my Meteor75 pro hdzero this afternoon for the first time! So, if I want to add other drones, like my tinyhawk III, it’s the same procedure that I just have to repeat? Thank you so much for this video!
Excellent! You on your way to FPV stardom. To add another drone you simply go to the main menu that lists the models from top to bottom, then select your existing drone, select duplicate, and once duplicated, select the new version and change the name and then bind it.
I’m really interested in this transmitter. It seems simple, easy, and effective. I saw it one a recommended RC’s for low budget and it’s only 70$. Is it compatible with the flywoo Cinerace 20 v2? U might remember me from another video lol.
After doing all this and my controller and drone are bind, would it also auto bind in the next time i use it?. Also does this controller work for HS440 and HS210?
Thanks for your time Steve it's very helpful . What drone are you using to bind with the radio?
I was using this one: ua-cam.com/video/bV4HbVrKV_M/v-deo.htmlsi=3_L9mudVNPLiM0n0
thank you for your video, it has been very helpful for me as a beginner in FPV drone. I tried following the steps you provided, and it worked. I have another question. Do you have any advanced videos on connecting the drone to goggles?
There rarely are videos regarding connecting FPV goggles to the video output of a drone because it is super simple. If your goggles are ANALOG, you simply scan for the band & channel. If your goggles are digital, you simply press the bind button on drone & goggles.
So normally I set aux switches on radio 1st... this way all done in beta? Thanku.
how to do for frsky meteor65 pro
Thank you for the excellent video. I have a Mobula 8 that I can't bind. When I insert the power cable into it, as you instructed, it doesn't beep multiple times and can't bind... Any thoughts? Thanks again.
Power cable? Power cable as in a battery cable? If you are talking about the part where you plug the battery in 3 times on a drone that has an ELRS RECEIVER, then the drone MUST make a series of tones when a battery is plugged in. If not, then it means your battery is dead or your drone is broken.
Can you do the same video for the boxer radio if you already have could you post a link to the video
Just a heads up, I just got my Pocket and the timer didn't automatically start after that initial configuration (before setting it to the arm trigger). It would only count down if the throttle stick was actually engaged (not at the bottom). I looked it up and TH% means the timer counts down in coordination with your throttle. So at fully throttle it counts down normally, at half throttle it counts down more slowly, at no throttle (stick at pulled all the way down) it doesn't count down at all.
I'm assuming this is because the version of EdgeTX that shipped with my radio is a newer version.
I have the same issue, does it work following the same steps or I need to do something else ?
@@dand.1941 yes, following the same steps all work. Just a few minor differences on what the radio does.
I guess I don't understand the need for a timer at all. Is it important? It's number one in this video. Please excuse my ignorance. I'm not trying to be a smart alec.
@@Sonic_Ox I think it's a useful reminder so you don't have to monitor the battery voltage constantly.
Thank you ggochalleng. That does seem helpful if you know about how long your typical flight time is. Say you have a quad that typically flies about 10 minutes with a certain battery, a certain flight style, under certain conditions like wind... you could set your timer for eight or nine minutes knowing you should be looking to land when your timer beeps. I guess I'm just accustomed to monitoring my voltage and never thought to set a timer. Thanks for the reply amigo.
Will this radio bind to a TH freestyle 2?
Thanks so much Steve .. Really appreciate your tutorials … Just bought the Non ELRS version.. I’m thinking due to the price buying a separate ELRS controller.. Or is the Nano Ranger a better option.. From one of your Irish Fans from across the pond 🌊💚😀👍
The pocket exists for the purpose of being compact. If you want something different/larger then the Boxer is your next option. Pocket uses Nano modules on the back and Boxer users Micro modules, so if you purchased the Ranger module it would not work with both.
Thanks for this video explained really well. I am new to this radio system or protocol. I have a question to ask you. Why when you enter the expresslrs location you notice the name of Radiomaster Zorro and not Radiomaster Pocket like mine? I bought this radio a few days ago, do I have to update the firmware? Unfortunately I haven't been able to bind anything yet. This is the second radio with integrated expresslrs that I've bought, the first time I sold it out of desperation. One of these days I hope to bind a tinnywhoop.
My POCKET RADIO shown in this video is a pre-release version sent to people in the RC Hobby to test and evaluate so mine has older firmware in it.
How do you select NO switch for timer settings? I accidentally scrolled the wheel while on that setting and now there's no option to have no selection even though the manual says "[Switch] - Select the switch that will trigger the timer to start. If no switch is selected, the timer will trigger based only on the configured mode."
Can you make a different profile and save binds for different drones? I have a mobula 6 and just picked up a mobula 7 was hoping to use the same controller
Anyone help with connecting radiomaster pocket to moblite7 hdzero frsky? Suggestions for fc software versions, etc. I've tried everything, I need help
Hi. what are the difference of binding your drone using the quick battery thing, compared on using betaflight to bind it (besides faster). will it harm my drone?
In the RC hobby 99% of people bind ELRS using the quick method. Using the software method simply allows you to add a binding password.
blimey gone brain dead watching you tune the radio as i'm not very tech minded ill ask a friend for help great review as always Captain.
I want to connect radiomaster pocket CC2500 with Rx radiomaster r81 but don't know how to connect
Mine is an arris dazzle I don’t know if its at 3.0
Can you please show how to set up this radio for a plane?
Hi drone Cap😊 I have a mobula 8 analog ELRS and radio master pocket ELRS VERSION. Will this bind method work for my drone? If not what do I watch to learn? Or could you just tell me? I'm familiar with beta flight so instructions will be easy for me please
I don’t own an ELRS Mobula 8 so I don’t know. It will probably work the same as long as it is not an SPI ELRS
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 ok and if it's spi do I have to go to the CLI tabs and enter rx_bind?
Is it possible to conect the Elrs Radiomaster Pocket with the Tinyhawk 3 Plus freestyle(analog and not HD Zero)?
Please be aware that ELRS Radios can connect to an ELRS Receiver as long as both are on the same firmware number and both are at the same frequency. This means you really need to know what receiver is in your Tinyhawk 3 Plus Freestyle.
When you press the Model button, what is the difference between "Pocket" & "FPV drone". Also, do the Delta & Heli have any different settings pre-configured for something or could we just delete those?
Those are just MODELS. You can setup hundreds of MODELS. Let’s say you owned 5 FPV Drones, you’d set up 5 MODELS and give each of those models a name.
Hi i want to use the pocket with FW 3.3.0 with a Beta Meteor 75 pro, but im not able to bind them, the elrs config give me no chance to create a fw for the RX which fits ... which way could i go ?
My guess is your old Meteor is on ELRS firmware 2.x and your pocket is on 3.x. So you either have to upgrade the Meteor or downgrade the Pocket. I can’t recall but your Meteor could be ELRS SPI (you’d have to check). ELRS SPI is different process to upgrade/downgrade.
does this support BLE Joystick too? 🎉
Using this radio to controll rc car with elrs...would the set up and bind be different...thanku
Control an rc car with two joysticks? Rc cars are usually controlled with RC car remotes. Slow moving vehicles like tanks, big trucks, construction equipment are controlled with joysticks. Anyways the setup is similar and bind is the same and there is no need for Betaflight configurator.
you can bind it with also ELRS 2.4
Captain, I do not know if you fix or upgrade your Drone, If you do, can you send me a list of all I will need to be able to do that with whoop drone not DJI. I will really appreciate. Thanks
The plugging in and out 3 times to activate bind mode, does that work for all drone? dosent seem to work with my pavo pico
Only works for drones with a dedicated ELRS receiver that you can see with your eyeballs. My guess is yours doesn’t work for two possible reasons:
1. You’re doing the process wrong
2. You’re drone is ELRS SPI which means it won’t work the standard way and you need to bind it via Betaflight configurator
Buongiorno io o preso la radio master pocket lrs volevo sapere perché non riesco a fare la Bind io o un EMAX Tinyhawk 3 plus Freestyle HD
Greetings, thank you for your video, it has helped me a lot,
I am connecting the master pocket elrs radio, with the mobula 8 uart elrs, I followed all the steps and apparently it connects and telemetry appears but when it comes to moving the propellers the drone does nothing, when I connect to the betafligt the remote does not appear, no I know if you can give me any suggestions or help, both devices have elrs 3.0 but I can't get the drone to move.
If the drone does not show up in Betaflight, then you need the correct usb port drivers for your computer. Also your USB cable could be a power cable & not a data cable. Also, plug a battery into your quad.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 The drone does appear in betaflight, and the sensors can be calibrated normally, the controller and the drone also connect to Wi-Fi and they are the same versions of ELRS, I just changed the cable and it is the same only the controller and the drone do not They connect, the connection signal appears on the controller and warns that there is telemetry, but the controls for the motors to move do nothing. When you connect the drone to the Betaflight, the station does not appear, that is, it is as if the connection between the controller and the drone did not happen, I don't know if I should change the UART version that the drone comes with for another to see what happens, I don't know what you can recommend.
@@handrusalexisflorezmontaez4061 The problem is your PC. Or you are plugging the cable into the wrong connection on the drone.
@@handrusalexisflorezmontaez4061 or you have the incorrect receiver type selected in betaflight configurator .
Bro can you share build video of drone
A point worth noting..... Many drones don't require that the battery be plugged in to connect to beta flight.
For digital Vtx's it's important to keep them cool during this process if a battery is needed.
But in most cases like on these small flywoos a battery isn't required
hola consulta mi pc no reconoce la radio al conectarlo si me puedes ayudar aparece en en el administrador de dispositivos pero con un signo !
Elrs loading screen froze went to internal turned it on but don’t have
crfs option
hola - bind con helicopter goosky s1 gracias
good morning I got the master pocket lrs radio I wanted to know why I can't do the Bind myself or an emax Tinyhawk 3 plus Freestyle HD drone
ELRS transmitters only binds to ELRS receivers and both must be on the same FIRMWARE
si ma entrambi sono ELRS scusa se o scritto male prima sia il drone che il radiocomando sono ELRS
yes but both are ELRS sorry if I spelled it wrong before both the drone and the remote control are ELRS
The radio control settings must be the same as those you set, even if it is either a drone returned by you or an EMAX Tinyhawk 3 plus Freestyle, even the minutes one because you didn't set it
Hello everyone. I must have a upgraded system due to most things looking the same. On my main screen at the bottom I have a bunch of zeros and it won't let me reset the timer.
I have watched a ridiculous number of videos trying to learn about this stuff and so far you are the best I have found. Better than JB who I do like.
Thanks! I try to keep every Short, Sweet & Simple in all my vids.
