BetaFPV SuperP 14CH ELRS Diversity Receiver

Being the first to market! SuperP 14CH Diversity Receiver has been designed not only for long-range flying, aerial photography but also suitable for the application of fixed-wing, helicopters, RC cars, boats and etc. It has TCXO oscillator, two antennas, dual receiver chains, and Plug-N-Play ports, and adds more features, which support 14 channels for the external barometer, RGB light strip, and other external sensors that are currently under development. It offers 2.4GHz, 915MHz and 868MHz versions, and greatly fulfills the requirements of reliability for long-range flying, aerial photography, or FPV freestyle tricks. With this receiver, users are able to get a more stable and reliable experience on RC models.

Bullet Points

• Featuring 14 PWM channels, this receiver is suitable for different applications. It can drive up to 14 servos, allowing for more complex and precise control. In addition, an external sensor such as a barometer, current sensor, etc, is also supported.
• A true diversity receiver with two complete RF receiver chains (referring to dual SX1280/SX1281 or dual SX1276), based on the latest official ExprssLRS. It comes with ExpressLRS V3.3 firmware.
• Built in a TCXO (temperature-compensated crystal oscillator), it is shared by two RF chips for a super accurate clock source. It can withstand extreme temperatures with no fear of heat and cold, continuously outputting accurate frequency for long-range flight.
• Two antennas will create an omnidirectional signal for good signal transmission. Placing the antenna separately and vertically to get a better signal is recommended.
• With the support of the failsafe function, it is capable of protecting RC models from being out of control.
• Reserving a Type-C USB port, it is convenient for pilots to flash the firmware. The plug-and-play design makes it very easy and friendly to use.
• The 900MHz radio system exhibits greater diffraction ability due to its lower frequency, while the 2.4GHz systems tend to be directional and susceptible to attenuation caused by buildings, foliage, or moisture.

Iterate Upgrading Quickly

Based on BETAFPV SuperD True Diversity Receiver and Micro Receiver, the SuperP 14CH Diversity Receiver takes the good features of them. For example, 14 PWM channels, two antennas, dual receiver chains, TCXO oscillator, etc. Besides, it has an I2C serial port for more external sensors such as a barometer, and a 3-pin port is reserved for RGB light strip. With the combination of the good points, SuperP RX ensures stability and reliability for users.

Compatible Models

The ExpressLRS receiver protocol can be widely used for more models such as multi-rotors, fixed-wing planes, helicopters, RC cars, RC Boats and etc. The two antennas and dual receiver chains design greatly fulfill the requirements for long-range flying and aerial photography.

It is recommended to place the antenna separately and vertically as far as possible for a better signal.

Know More About the TCXO

SuperP 14CH Diversity Receiver is built-in a TCXO (temperature compensated crystal oscillator), which is shared by two RF chips for a super accurate clock source. The true diversity receiver including two RF chips and PA+LNA will generate a large amount of heat when working. With the high-quality TCXO, it can withstand extreme temperatures with no fear of heat and cold, continuously outputting accurate frequency for long-range flight. Click to learn more about the TCXO.

Port Configuration

Enter the configuration page via WiFi mode.

• Power on the receiver and wait for 60 seconds without binding to any transmitted equipment;
• Once the RGB indicator is in slow green flashing, the receiver's WiFi has been activated;
• Connect WiFi via cellphone or PC (WiFi name: ExpressLRS RX, password: ExpressLRS) ;
• Open the website address: http://10.0.0.1/hardware.html

On the configuration page, users can set the PWM pin, CRSF pin, I2C pin, etc. The pin number corresponds to specified channels. You can refer to the chip I/O function table.

Note: Please do not modify other function pins.

Binding Procedure

The default firmware of the SuperP 14CH Diversity Receiver uses the ExpressLRS V3.3.0 protocol and has no preset binding phrase. Therefore, the firmware version of the transmitter module must be ExpressLRS V3.0.0 or later versions. Both the receiver and transmitter module should not have any binding phrase.

• Power on and off the receiver 3 times, each step pausing 2 seconds to enter binding mode;
• When the indicator starts fast blink with orange twice, the receiving is at binding mode;
• Enter the radio or transmitter module's binding mode to bind with the receiver; if the Indicator has turned solid, it indicates that the device has been bound successfully.

Note: After the device has been successfully bound, the receiver will record the device, and future binding will be automatic. There would be no need to go through the binding process again.

Failsafe and Channel Output Settings

The setting method is as follows:

• After the receiver is powered on, wait for 60 seconds without connecting the remote control
• The RGB indicator enters the green slow flashing state, and the receiver automatically turns on WiFi (WiFi name: ExpressLRS RX, WiFi password: ExpressLRS)
• Use a mobile phone or computer to connect to WiFi, and log in to http://10.0.0.1 with a browser to find the model page
