I just got a radiomaster zorro 4in1 with TBS crossfire nano external module. I just bought the geprc rocket plus tbs crossfire edition as well. I updated the external module, then paired it with reciever on drone. Flashing blue light (means update now going to drone module) then now solid green on drone and remote. I know remote is paired because it says telemetry lost if drone is powered off. Now, I have solid green lights on both drone and remote external module. Both are paired. But when trying to get stick feedback on betaflight or receiver feedback at all, nothing. I move drone around with my hand on 3D model betaflight first page, drone moves. But nothing on reciever tab. I tried serial uart, crsf module. I tried disabling abc filter on zorro remote settings (tells you to do that on betaflight settings). I need help please. Its got to be something in betaflight is wrong settings wise. I looked up youtube videos for days. Can never find a tbs crossfire setup on zorro, only elrs. Thank you in advance!
I'm having the same problem rn with my drone. How did u fix it? If u did
Damn that sharpie noise.
Question use zorro 4 in1 running plane not a drone how do you change motor rotation from clockwise to counterclockwise? Last time ran Transmitter was 1980's things changed a bit. Any help be great.
To reverse a Zorro channel running EdgeTX, select the model and page across to the Output page - page 7. Click the channel you want to reverse, select Edit and scroll down to DIRECTION. Select INV to invert the channel. Hit return a few times to get back to the Outputs page and you'll see the left/right arrow now points left indicating the channel is reversed.
When you calibrate the sticks, you set your mid point to the LCD, this feels wrong to me. The point of calibration is to ensure the hardware is sync'd to the values. You should mid-point physically with the notches around the gimbal. Then after the calibration they will show true. In the video your left gimbal is low.
This may seem petty, but when using high rates, you may get drift back. I'm happy to be wrong. Just a passing thought.
Wouldn't it be beter to change it using rxrange in the cli , I know a lot of fpv pilots like to have multiple kwads on a single model.
Excellent video! Perfectly explained and easy to follow tyvm! I hadnt done this yet but im going to as soon as i get home lol
Glad it helped!
if it wasnt for these types of videos i would literally never figure this stuff out.
Thank you so much for your comment! I'm thrilled to hear that my video helped you. That's exactly why I create these tutorials - to make complex topics more accessible and help people like you navigate through them. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask. Keep exploring and learning!
do u have a video of how to bind the elrs zorro to a elrs drone.
Turn on your RadioMaster Zorro transmitter and the ELRS receiver on your drone.
On the RadioMaster Zorro transmitter, navigate to the "Model" menu and select "Model Type."
Select "Multi-Rotor" as the model type.
Navigate to the "System" menu and select "RF System."
Select "ExpressLRS" as the protocol.
Navigate to the "Bind" menu and select "Bind."
Press and hold the bind button on the ELRS receiver until the LED starts flashing rapidly.
Press and hold the bind button on the RadioMaster Zorro transmitter until the LED starts flashing rapidly.
Once the two devices are bound, the LED on the ELRS receiver will stop flashing and remain solid. The RadioMaster Zorro transmitter will also confirm the successful binding.
Test the controls to make sure they are working properly.
Please note that the exact steps may vary depending on the specific version of the RadioMaster Zorro and ELRS receiver you have, so it's always a good idea to refer to the user manuals for detailed instructions.
Thanks!
You have a great ways of keeping me informed and entreated....Thanks
Welcome! And thanks for the $. It's much appreciated
This helped me center, but the min and max are not changing at all in betaflight when I change the min and max values.
Actually I take that back. my roll min will change, but my roll max will not change no matter what I set that at. I am at 1988 in betaflight and stuck there for max right roll deflection.
I'm glad it's sorted.
How do I get, crossfire setup?? I I’ve been trying to use tbs agent lite.
That's a short question with a BIG answer. There's loads of videos out there that cover it.
@@WhirlyBloke none that are helpful, I just bought the tango 2 instead
Thank you fro this video. I didnt know about calibrating the stick in betaflight. Ive been having alot of deadband and i thought i had to purchase new gimbals. 🙏🏿
No problem 👍
Hi. What do I do to get more travel. Mine's at 100% and it still has 159 pionts to go. Sticks have been calibrated.
First, make sure that your transmitter's endpoints are properly set. Endpoints determine the maximum and minimum values that can be sent from the transmitter to the receiver. If your endpoints are not set correctly, you may not be able to achieve the full range of motion from your sticks. You should be able to adjust endpoints on your transmitter, usually through a menu or button interface.
Second, check that your transmitter is outputting the full range of signals. You can use a servo tester or receiver to verify that your transmitter is sending signals across the full range of motion. If the range is not correct, you may need to adjust the sub-trim or trim values for each channel on your transmitter.
Third, you can try adjusting the exponential or dual rates on your transmitter. These settings can affect the sensitivity and responsiveness of your sticks, which can impact the range of motion you can achieve. Experimenting with these settings can help you find the right balance between control and range.
Thank you super helpful!
Glad it helped.
Hey this was a great tutorial. Thank you. On a side note, do you have any ideof the screw size for thh threaded inserts on the back of the display? I what to to make a monitor/phone mount for it and i cant find that info.
Thanks again
I'm glad to hear that you found the tutorial helpful! The screws are M3 threads. I hope this helps!
hey your videos really helped me, Thankyou ❤️, i just wanted to know how to check rssi signal on osd, i'm using happy model ep 2 with zorro elrs
No problem 👍
This was really helpful... thank you so much.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks a lot. You solved my problem
No problem. I'm glad it helped.
Thanks for another good tutorial
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video! I am running DSM on my quads. trying to set the end points. Their all backwards on betaflight because of the conversion from AETR to TAER. Not sure what to do yet. I need a non DSM quad to set endpoints I guess.

@@WhirlyBloke Thanks a million!!! That worked. Now I need to figure out what is setup wrong in Betaflight. The drone won't arm. Driving me crazy. I'm a noob in over my head I guess.
Thanks, I had previously done this in OpenTX but had been distracted and not done it since loading EdgeTX
Easily done.
@@WhirlyBloke And that's the truth
Excellent video, number 1
Thanks for the kind words.
Very useful info thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you, this help me a lot
Glad it helped!
I find so funny when I hear from "Zorro" advertisers - "it is easy"...
That because it is.
@@WhirlyBloke Sorry but let me disagree :) Maybe if one is familiar with the OpenTx and Radiomaster Tx-s, then for him/her Zorro is easy to handle. But if it is your first ELRS Tx, it is definitely hard to set up. Zorro has brilliant innovative features; the problem is that the number of these and other usual features is large and Zorro comes without any (proper) manual. So one has to dig in youtube (thank you and others giving explanations), read general ELRS description and if still something is unclear (the most probably case) ask questions at ELRS gitlab, or different RC forums. And this is just a part of the story, even after gaining all this information there is no guarantee that you will succeed.
@@davidtskhakaya280 elrs has a very comprehensive online manual
And yes I agree regarding open tx and edge tx it can be quite a steep learning curve. A comprehensive manual would be beneficial
Maybe a dumb question but how did you bind the quad to the remote?
That's a whole other video and depends to some extent on the ELRS receiver. There's loads of ELRS binding videos on YT. It's he same for allEdgeTX transmitters.
@@WhirlyBloke i need one for frsky XM+
do you have to make these changes on each model i have on the zorro?
I've got an upcoming video about model management that covers this. Once you've set all your endpoints on one model you can simply copy it to a new model and tweak any of the other settings to suit. So you only need to do it once.
@@WhirlyBloke awesome. I look forward to that video. Thanks for all your work towards our hobby
Thanks for your clear and simple explanation- I had a big trim issue with Roll somehow, and this got everything straightened out. Appreciated!!
I'm glad it helped. It's the main reason for this channel. Thanks for watching.
@@WhirlyBloke It did! My Zorro was really out of whack.
