Specification:

Core Advantages * Ultra-Lightweight (≤5.5g) & Compact – Perfect for Micro FPV Builds Every gram counts in FPV racing and micro drone builds — and the PandaRC R1 delivers with a weight of ≤5.5g and dimensions of 21×30×4.5mm. This ultra-compact, feather-light design adds negligible weight to your drone, preserving its agilityy, speed, and flight time — critical for high-speed racing and tight maneuvers. Unlike bulky VTXs that hinder performance, the R1 fits seamlessly into micro quads, toothpick builds, and small racing drones, with no frame modifications needed. It' s the lightest 200mW VTX in its class, making it a top choice for pilots who refuse to sacrifice speed for power. * Adjustable 25-200mW Power + Power-Off Mode – Versatile & Energy-Efficient Customize your transmission power to match every flight scenario withadjustable 25mW to 200mW output — plus a convenient power-off mode for energy savings and compliance. The 25mW low power is ideal for indoor flying, small spaces, or crowded race fields (minimizing interference with other pilots and complying with local regulations in regions like the UK and EU). The 200mW high power unlocks longer-range performance for outdoor racing and freestyle flights, delivering clear signal without overconsuming battery. The power-off mode lets you inspect your drone on the race field without transmitting, protecting internal components and saving energy — a game-changer for competitive pilots. * Dual Control Modes: Button + OSD – Easy, Flexible Operation No more complicated setups — the R1 features user-friendly button control and OSD remote adjustment for effortless parameter tuning. Use the physical button for quick on-the-go adjustments: short-press to cycle through 8 channels, hold for 3 seconds to switch power levels (25mW/200mW), double-click to enter/exit Pit mode, and hold for 10 seconds to activate/deactivate power-off mode. For remote adjustments mid-flight, use the OSD interface (compatible with Betaflight) to tweak channels and power without landing. The intuitive LED display (breathing for power-off, steady for 25mW, double-flash for 200mW) lets you quickly verify settings at a glance — perfect for fast-paced racing. * 8CH 5.8GHz Frequency – Smooth, Interference-Free Transmission Equipped with 8 dedicated 5.8GHz channels (5658MHz, 5695MHz, 5732MHz, 5769MHz, 5806MHz, 5843MHz, 5880MHz, 5917MHz), the R1 ensures smooth, stable FPV operations for both casual and competitive flying. The carefully selected frequency range minimizes interference from other pilots and environmental signals, delivering crystal-clear video feed even in crowded race fields. With easy channel cycling via the button or OSD, you can quickly switch to a clear channel if interference occurs — no more signal dropouts mid-race. * Dynamic Power Detection – Stable Performance Every Flight Built-in dynamic power detection automatically adjusts output power to ensure consistent, optimized performance. This intelligent feature prevents power fluctuations caused by voltage changes or environmental factors, keeping your signal stable even during high-speed maneuvers or extended flights. Unlike low-quality VTXs that suffer from signal fades or power drops, the R1 maintains reliable transmission, giving you the confidence to push your limits in every race. * MMCX Antenna Interface – Secure, Versatile Connectivity Featuring a standard MMCX antenna interface, the R1 is compatible with a wide range of 5.8GHz FPV antennas (sold separately). MMCX connectors are trusted for their secure, vibration-resistant fit — critical for FPV racing, where crashes and rough handling are common. The interface ensures a tight connection that won' t loosen mid-flight, reducing signal loss and boosting transmission range. Pair it with a high-quality MMCX antenna (low VSWR, high gain) for maximum performance and farther flight ranges. * 6-36V Wide Voltage Compatibility – Universal Fit Forget about voltage regulators or incompatible battery systems — the R1 supports 6-36V DC input, making it compatible with 2S to 8S LiPo/LiHV batteries. This wide voltage range works seamlessly with nearly all FPV setups, from micro racing quads (2S-3S) to larger long-range drones (6S-8S). With low working current (≤12V/60mA@noRF, ≤12V/185mA@25mW, ≤12V/280mA@200mW), it' s energy-efficient, preserving your drone' s battery life for longer flights. * Bonus Light Strip – Enhanced Visibility The R1 includes an additional light strip that can be soldered to the VTX board and installed at the drone' s tail. This feature enhances visibility during flights, making it easier to track your drone in bright sunlight or crowded race fields — a valuable addition for competitive racers who need to keep a close eye on their quad.

Important Safety & Usage Notes - Always connect the antenna before powering on the VTX to avoid damaging internal components. - Ensure the input voltage and DC positive poles are correct to prevent component damage. - Choose an antenna with good VSWR and gain to maximize transmission distance and signal stability. - Do not touch the VTX after extended flights, as it may become hot and cause burns. - Pay attention to electrostatic protection during installation and use to avoid damaging the VTX.
