  • Using ELRS Happy Model ES24TX-Lite with X-Lite/ Pro
    1 project | /r/diydrones | 18 Jun 2021
    For those willing to semi DIY it (which most in this hobby are), here's my solution to getting X-Lite to accept HappyModel ES24TX-Lite. I 3d printed this case (https://github.com/ExpressLRS/ExpressLRS-Hardware/tree/master/PCB/2400MHz/TX_SX1280_Slimmer) You'll need to do a little modification after this is printed. You'll need to cut/break off the 2 post of the screws near the top of the module, this helps the module sit lower in the case. You'll also need to break off the back where the module pins will be.
