The TBS Crossfire is a long range R/C link based on current RF technology, capable of self-healing two-way communications and range beyond comprehension. With a sensitivity of -130dB, full RF-side diveristy rather than just antenna-diversity, the features already implemented and the future upgrades to come make the TBS Crossfire the only long range control link worthy of our times.
Remote control links, however, are tasked with much more than range. Telemetry, robustness against interference, connectivity with smart devices, ease of use and the overall finish are often overlooked to achieve the last bit of range. The end result is often strange behavior, lack of reliability, or simply things that were never envisioned and thus not possible. Let's kiss those days goodbye, and move on to a brighter future.
The TBS Crossfire Lite features all the incredible features as the high end Crossfire module, with only the removal of the Bluetooth module. A perfect choice for FPV pilots looking to save a few dollars!
Developed by Experts
Team BlackSheep has been notorious for long range records, close-to-ground proximity flying in the Alps and deep urban operations. During our numerous missions all around the globe TBS has gathered a list of requirements, and have found that no existing system can cover them all. So we set on a long and painful path to develop a RC link system entirely from scratch, put it through its paces for over a year to ensure top-notch reliability and state-of-the-art functionality.
Through the OLED Display on the transmitter, you can monitor the real-time location of your drone (TBS GPS or BlackBox with DJI Naza or APM-based GPS required). The up and downlink status provide a feeling of safety, the configuration options through the OLED display do away with any PC-based configuration tools. The pulsing LED relays your link budget and link health in colorized form (green = keep going, orange = turn around). In case of a crash, the location of the drone is visible on the OLED as well. The built in battery on the receiver turns it into a beacon automatically - and it will continue to transmit its last known location until the battery runs out.
It Just Works
Apart from unparalelled maximum range, the thing that TBS is most proud about on the TBS Crossfire is that it just works. In the past, our question always was "could our R/C link keep up?". Many missions were aborted, or lines weren't flown, due to premature failure of the R/C link. Once we switched to the CROSSFIRE, all of these problems were gone. As long as we had video, we had control. When the video was gone, TBS still had control - and telemetry. With the TBS Crossfire comes peace of mind.

Team BlackSheep Crossfire Lite Transmitter Module
I have used FrSky R9 for my control link since I started flying. I was happy with them, R9 provided a good link and good range, but FrSky recently changed protocol and suddenly it was impossible to find the older accst equipment. Rather than spending $250 on a new FrSky radio and another $40 on a 2019 R9 module, I decided to sell my older model R9 receivers and module and upgrade to Crossfire. I have heard a lot of great things about the Crossfire system so it seemed like the natural upgrade. I am very happy with it so far. I have flown 2 different planes both twice now using the new Crossfire Lite Module and Micro V2 receivers and I am quite impressed. There have been a few things to get used to that are different. It's a very stable link and provides great range. Setup is very simple, plug the module into USB and use the TBS Agent to upgrade it, then bind your receiver and it automatically upgrades wirelessly. I am a little disappointed Crossfire only supports 12 channels, I do miss having 16, but I was able to make some adjustments and make it work. I would certainly recommend Crossfire to anyone else that was in my situation and looking for an upgrade. The only thing the Crossfire Lite doesn't have compared to the full size is the Bluetooth. If you want to use Mavlink and have telemetry on a laptop or something similar you should get the full model, otherwise the Lite is great and provides up to 2 watts and adaptive power, 10mw-2w.
