M1HOGX ====ELRS Setup/Upgrade using ELRS configurator app==== https://oscarliang.com/setup-expresslrs-2-4ghz/ Install the latest version of the ELRS configurator app Copy latest ELRS LUA config script to SD /scripts/tools https://www.expresslrs.org/quick-start/transmitters/lua-howto/ ====Flashing The Happy Model ES24TX Module to ELRS 3.6.0==== https://www.expresslrs.org/3.0/quick-start/transmitters/es24tx/ Radio Master TX16S Press SYS, select ExpressLRS, WIFI Connectivity, Enable WIFI If you are NOT already using Home WiFi, connect to the ExpressLRS TX WiFi access point (password is expresslrs) and browse http://10.0.0.1/ Configure to use home network if needed. ELRS Configurator then finds TX as elrs_tx.local **Notes ** Successfully used the modules WIFI (very short range). Use the ELRS configurator app, to generate a gzipped bin if needed to avoid the not enough space error. May need to use configurator to generate firmware first, then connect to device wifi. ====Flashing The Happy Model ES24TX BackPack firmware to 1.5.2==== Press SYS, select ExpressLRS, WIFI Connectivity, Enable Backpack WIFI Use the ELRS configurator app, to generate the backpack firmware. If you are NOT already using Home WiFi, connect to the ExpressLRS TX Backpack WiFi access point (password is expresslrs) and browse http://10.0.0.1/ Configure to use home network if needed. ELRS Configurator then finds TX Backpack as elrs_tx.local ---- ====Flashing matek2400 RX to ELRS 3.6.0==== https://www.expresslrs.org/3.0/quick-start/receivers/matek2400/ Flashing the RX clears its config!
