Love the looks of that radio man!!! 😁 i did just order the boxer (clear) to go with my diy speedybee 😁 took me about a week of looking at different RCs before I went with the boxer. Your reviews and videos were a big help 😁 i have f7 stack and supernova motors for this build. My first drone build 😁 started with mini 3 pro 😉 also got 03 air unit and integra goggles after much research 😁 blew my whole freaking paycheck on this thing 🤣🤯 (bi-weekly) 🤯 love the videos. Keep them coming 😁

Could one add a couple washers under the new screws instead of cutting them short? Are the LED rings dimmable to match the LCD brightness? Lastly: It would be awesome if they offered red or amber LEDs... you know: for a more submarine/aviation look.

@Photonees Жыл бұрын

Have the radio but as for perfection, the only thing that is annoying, is the antenna. You cannot have a nice grip to tighten it and when you rotate it the antenna itself the wrong way (as it spins), you might loosen the antenna i have noticed, so I always double check it is tightened enough.

@Seii-FPV Жыл бұрын

Inside mine it says Boxer v2.0 (on the board). I did not have a single issue with screws and they are the same length you showed in your video before you cut them to new length. I also did not have any trouble with those plastic pieces catching on the back cover. It fits like a glove without any modifications on my end. Did they change anything with new revisions?

@MadRC Жыл бұрын

Yea as mine was pre release I had the old moulded back cover and that’s why it was catching. All the consumer ones are fine.

@ridewithandrei Жыл бұрын

some of the boxers seems to have jitter on any gimbal, what s the deal then ?

@andrewtaylor5103 25 күн бұрын

If you're not sure about whether you'll have to take a knife to the back plate, just pop open your module bay and if you have holes on both lower corners, it'll be fine. Does anyone know the thickness of the LEDs? is it possible to use the CNC gimbal spacers AND the LEDs together? Gimbal spacers add 4.5mm

Good video, but no drama is required about the screw length.

@Mads Teck, how many millimeters or inches did you cut the screws?

@nullfield1126 9 ай бұрын

I cut about 2mm on mine. Eyeballed it and only had to shorten one a bit more. Make sure to cut metal that sticks out to the sides too much after cutting so that you don't create a makeshift drill bit that would ruin the plastic you're trying to screw into

There are none with both. It’s ELRS or 4 in one.

Or a Boxer with Elrs and an external 4 in 1

@RizHassan Жыл бұрын

@@malte9999 It is my understanding, that the ELRS protocol is so different than all the legacy protocol, that it would be best to have two radios. I mainly fly fixed wing including FPV with Ardupilot firmware. And if I want to fly quad copters, I should just start from scratch since BetaFlight, ELRS, EdgeTx have better EcoSystem.

@malte9999 Жыл бұрын

My setup is a TX16S with internal ELRS and an external 4 in1. Everything I have is already converted to ELRS or will be soon, except for some Horizon Hobby BNFs. For trainer mode with the Kids I have an RP2 connected to one of the AUX serial ports. The Receiver sends SBUS to the trainer radio and the radios for the kids all do ELRS to that receiver. This setup works great for me, without issues. Who said that you should have two different radios and why. It would good to know, so that we can address this in EdgeTX.

Joshua Bardwell had the brightness on a pot so you could turn it up and down. Once you've watched that video then you can program the controller as per one of his videos. When the arm is high, brightness is low and that should do it.

@doccock100 Жыл бұрын

personal taste is.... personal. I belong to a generation (like Ian) who lived before the wide spread use of LED's (maybe you are too). I enjoy the way LED's look because of this. For those who have grown up with LED's on everything they don't enjoy them in the same way. It is much like certain parts of the world like chrome or gold plate. If you go to a shop, there are many different styles of pretty much everything, this is because not everyone likes the same thing. Because something looks 'blooming awful' to you, doesn't mean that it does look bad, just that you don't like it. It may be surprising, but other people are different, like different things, and those preferences are equally as valid. I too like these and have installed them on my radio, as have many others.

@51im Жыл бұрын

@@doccock100 I not only dislike them for the look. They also drop the height of the sticks, which is not something I would want. They add no functionality and are a needless cost. As pointed out even the screws are the wrong length which risks damaging your radio. I just don't see any plus points to be honest. I'm also of a ripe age but find nothing appealing about cheap colourful lights or tacky brightly coloured anodised components. Just my opinion though.
