The upgraded iFlight Commando 8 is here, equipped with fully integrated iFlight ExpressLRS hardware, a Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator, and an upgraded cooling system. The inclusion of a Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator further improves the drone's performance. These enhancements not only improve the drone's performance and reliability but also provide a more enjoyable and seamless flight experience for drone enthusiasts.

No additional external module is necessary to run ELRS. If you're planning to run another TX module, please check out the optional add-on external module bay.

ExpressLRS TX modules were developed in close cooperation with the ExpressLRS Team with firmware targets already released.

Please use iFlight ELRS receivers coupled with our transmitter for maximum performance! We've probably achieved the market's best crystal frequency stability at a very low frequency deviation.

The 900MHz as well as 2400MHz band have outstanding performance and long range capabilities. If you're not sure what to get, please check out the official ELRS Long Range Competition to see what has been achieved. https://www.expresslrs.org/2.0/info/long-range/

What can I expect? Due to local regulations, the 900MHz FCC region seems to have a better performance than the 868MHz EU region. The 2400MHz band works great in any region, and has a higher packet rate up to 500hz. This is not a common 2400MHz protocol and cannot be compared to anything prior on the market.

Our XING series NextGen motors have become popular after the initial release in 2018 and became the new standard on the market. Was it the curved shape or the internal damping ring to protect the bearing, or was it the higher quality NSK bearings coupled with a higher grade titanium alloy shaft? We've been copied and compared all these years, but now it's time to set a new standard again! We're finally ready to announce our predecessor the XING2!

The smooth, reliable and powerful XING motors were upgraded and we achieved an even higher standard in our manufactory as well as better performance than ever before. New center slotted N52H curved arc magnets were introduced to drastically reduce response time of the motor! Maybe the biggest bottleneck of our FPV flight controller is the motor due to it's translation delay of it braking and accelerating. XING2 motors offer faster response to translate your PID loop quicker and get that locked-in feeling you were always looking for!

Due to the high quality materials used and the durable joint of bell and shaft, we were able to reduce the magnet air gap and stator lamination to a minimum. The smaller the air gap is, the lower that reluctance and the higher the magnetic flux (which is the magnetic analog of current) causing more efficiency and higher power!

Single ELRS option includes 1x ELRS 2.4GHz/900MHz V2 TX module (please select band) pre-installed in the back of the radio Cooling fan is inside the flat back cover.
