Using Betaflight F4 with Jeti ExBus - iFlight Nazgul 5, Jeti DS12 | EN

- This is a step by step guide on how to get Jeti ExBus receivers to work with Betaflight F4 boards. In this example, I used the iFlight Nazgul all in one 5 inch FPV quadcopter. It took a lot of try and error to get this to work because I could not find any other guide or documentation about FPV and Jeti.
1. Bind your RX using the bind plug
2. Set one output port of the RX to Jeti ExBus using the devices function of your Jeti radio
3. Solder a servo wire to the flight controller using ground, 5 volt and a TRANSMITTER tab
4. Plug in your Betaflight FC
5. Set your UART port to serial based RX. No other settings needed.
6. Configure your unit to serial based RX and select the protocol Jeti ExBus.
7. Double check your inputs. They should work now. You might need to reconfigure the channel mapping either changing it inside Jeti or Betaflight.
8. Configure your telemetry sensors and map them whereever you like.
Have fun flying! I hope I can get more people to try Jeti and FPV. So far I had good experiences with this combo. I like having a quality radio in my hand and I did not want to buy any additional radio just for FPV. No extreme tests done to this so far, I cannot say anything about penetration. flying between trees and behind small buildings was no issue so far.

This is a GREAT video - thank you very much!
I will put a Jeti RX on the next 5" quad, and might put one of the little RX's on a smaller quad also! THANK YOU
Hi Pascal, nice video. Let me ask you. I am a Jeti user too and recently found an iNav but my invitation into the iNav world was no pleasant. I have crashed twice because the iNav got frozen during the flight and I lost control completely. Is it familiar to you? (I fly iNav 6.0 and Matek H743-WLITE / JETIEXBUS) thanks
So far I never had any freezes with my iflight copter. It is not using a Matec board though.
@@PRHeli If you would be so kind and have a look into the iNav and the "version" command in a CLI? I would like to know what version of GCC is there. Thank you :)
Amazig tutorial, it works for me perfectly but i am having range issues. I am failsafeing in like 500m with ds-12, duplex R5L ex and the two antennas in 90 degrees angle apart from video antenna, any idea what can be the problem??
This is why i wait to buy an Jeti TX... but now if it works... thousend times better then Graupner, and higher Quality as my Radiomaster TX16....
Thanks you very much! This works also on X-Rotor F7! I've wasted hours till i found your Video.
Vielen Dank für das super Video. Hat mit Betaflight 4.2. und 4.3. super funktioniert. Mit BF 4.4.0 und 4.4.1 habe ich immer wieder Abstürze. Der Flight Controller (iFlight BLITZ Mini F722 der Nazgul Evoque) scheint sich im Flug immer wieder mal aufzuhängen. Die Motoren schalten ab und und die Drohne fällt zu Boden. Der Sender empfängt keine Telemetriedaten mehr und die Drohne reagiert auch auf keinerlei Befehle mehr. Auch die OSD Anzeige der Brille verändert sich nicht mehr. Erst ein ab- und anstecken des Lipos erweckt die Drohne wieder zum Leben. Hast du eine Ahnung woran das liegen könnte? Oder weißt du an wen ich mich da wenden könnte? Es gibt scheinbar nur sehr wenige Drohnenflieger die Jeti fliegen.
Hallo Marc! Leider noch nie davon gehört. So lange das Signal in der Jeti stabil ist (Signalgüte Q niemals auf 0%) kann ich mir keinen Reim darauf machen
@@PRHeli Danke dir für deine Antwort. Die Signalgüte ist immer gut. Der Empfänger sendet auch weiter Telemetriedaten. Nur der FC nicht. Der ist dann tot. Gehe ich zurück auf BF 4.3 läuft alles wieder einwandfrei. Hast du schon BF 4.4 drauf?
At last a video using Jeti with FPV, COULD you share the model setup as i have never set up a FPV drone with Jeti thank you
I literally set nothing inside the transmitter but one or two switches. New model. Drone. Done.
hey.mit dem thema beschäftige ich mich momentan auch.ich bekomme allerdings keine telemetrie-werte in meiner funke angezeigt.du hast bzgl. telemetrie nichts besonderes eingestellt? welche firmware-version hast du denn auf deinem rex?grüße!
Mein Rex 3 ist Firmware 1.14. Hier habe ich kein Update aufgespielt. Mein E1 und E2 Port ist auf ExBus gestellt. Ansonsten habe ich noch Failsafe konfiguriert - sonst nichts.
Telemetrie hat automatisch funktioniert, nachdem das iFlight Board korrekt konfiguriert war. Ich kann leider nicht für andere Boards sprechen.
How is the experience of using it instead of another tx? Like, stick feels etc? Thanks
I had to get used to the ergonomics first. I previously used the Futaba T8 which I liked more from the shape and switches. I did not use any FPV style radios yet so keep that in mind.
The DS12 took some time getting used to and could use two sliders in its side for additional functionality and the hall gimbals are okay, nothing special. They feel better if you buy the Carbon DS12 which has metal gimbal construction.
From what I have SEEN, not used, is that there are very competitive and well made other radios out there for FPV. The Jeti sets an extremely high standard for all disciplines which is why it is so popular and why I love it, too. But for specialized applications, you might be better off with a small and light FPV radio.
@@PRHeli I am using an frsky x20s because I fly fpv drones but also wings and planes, trying to find a tx that can handle all of them is quite hard.
My option would be to use the exbus to crossfire converter made by Rob, as I need crsf or expresslrs for lightweight drones and range reasons that Jeti cannot handle. Hoping the total latency will not be that bad.
Otherwise, I am curious about the stick response and tension as the global geometry seems way différent that what I'm used to
@@stevenmorisset4307 Stick tension is very well adjustable. I also bought different gimbals, though M4 threaded ones are hard to find. Geometry is sth you need to find out for yourself. The DS12 has rather short travel which I really like but apart from that is just like any other rx radio for planes.
