LiteRadio 3 is a remote control radio transmitter designed primarily for RC models, including multirotor, airplanes. It gives you more than you ever thought possible from an entry-level 8-channel radio.

LiteRadio 3 Radio Transmitter is the newest remote control in the LiteRadio series. This transmitter features an ergonomically designed handle and has superb performance in its working time, newly updated gimbal, and multi-protocol support (Frsky version). Besides, this version supports BETAFPV Configurator which is a utility designed to simply update, configure, and tune the radio controller.

The current factory default firmware is ELRS V2, and it can be upgraded to the beta version of ELRS V3 firmware. For detailed instructions,

please check the update guide.

External TX Module

Reserving a nano bay on the backside, LiteRadio 3 supports an external module. BETAFPV ELRS Nano TX Module, which features a high refresh rate, ultra-low latency, and long-range, is strongly recommended to LiteRadio 3.

Note: The external modules should support the CRSF protocol when using other brands. If you are ready to install the TBS external nano module, the TBS nano module case size should be 64*42*25mm, the thicker one of the retrofit cases.

Improvements on LiteRadio 3

Compared with LiteRadio 2 SE, the LiteRadio 3 is equipped with a 2000mAh 1S battery, bringing an excellent endurance performance up to 15 working hours without an external module. Reserving a nano bay on the backside, it supports an external module for use with ELRS Nano TX Module, which supports CRSF protocol. Moreover, the LiteRadio 3 gimbal is newly updated with an accurate potentiometer and adjustable stick ends.

Note: The LiteRadio 2 SE ordered from December supports the BETAFPV configurator. At the same time, the LiteRadio 2 SE gimbals are the same as LiteRadio 3 for orders from December.

BETAFPV Configurator

BETAFPV Configurator is a utility designed to simplify updating, configuring, and tuning the radio transmitter.

Download address: https://github.com/BETAFPV/BETAFPV_Configurator/releases

The function of the BETAFPV Configurator is listed below.

  • Basic radio controller setup, like mode switch, turn on/off RF modules.
  • Full function of the ExpressLRS configuration, like outpower, packet rate, etc.
  • Channel mixer for fixed wing drones.
  • Firmware update.

Only the radio controller ExpressLRS 2.4G and Frsky 2.0 version support BETAFPV Configurator nowadays. we will upgrade to ELRS V3.0. as soon as possible.

DO NOT power on the transmitter first and connect it to the PC. The USB port is invalid in this situation.

How to switch the protocol

Note: Switching internal protocol is only available for the Frsky version radio transmitter. ExpressLRS version can only switch to the external TX module.

To change protocols and TX module, here are the steps:

  • Power the radio transmitter off;
  • Press and hold the BIND button while powering the radio transmitter back on;
  • Then the flash color and times of the LED before buzzer alarms will change, according to the tables above.
The Frsky version could support 4 different internal protocols, including Frsky D16 FCC, Frsky D16 LBT, Frsky D8, and Futaba S-FHSS. The protocol is indicated by the flashing times of the LED when power on, before the buzzer alarms.

 

Frsky Version
LED Status                                                       Protocol Version
Red Flash once                                 Internal Frsky D16 FCC (ACCST 1.X Version)
Red Flash twice                                 Internal Frsky D16 LBT (ACCST 1.X Version)
Red Flash Three Times                    Internal Frsky D8
Red Flash Four Times                      Internal Futaba S-FHSS
Purple Flash Three Times Quickly Internal TX Module Off and Run External TX Module

Note: LiteRadio 3 Frsky version only works with D16 ACCST 1.X Frsky protocol. So if you use a Frsky receiver with D16 ACCST 2.X version or ACCESS version, the binding will fail.

 

ExpressLRS Version
LED Status                                                       Protocol Version
Red Flash once                                       Internal ELRS
Purple Flash Three Times Quickly        Internal TX Module Off and Run External TX Module

  • Manual for LiteRadio 3 Radio Transmitter
  • BETAFPV V2.0.X firmware for LiteRadio 3. The V2.0.1 version for ELRS supports adjustable joystick dead zone.

 

Below are the joystick calibration videos for LiteRadio 3 transmitter. The instruction is the same for both LiteRadio 3 and LiteRadio 2 SE.

Features:

  • 8 channels in total.
  • USB Joystick support for most practice simulators.
  • Nano module bay for external TX module.
  • Newly designed joystick gimbal for longer usage life.
  • Support BETAFPV Configurator for updating, configuring, and tuning.
  • Provide ExpressLRS 2.4G protocol version and Frsky protocol version for option.
  • Built-in 2000mAh battery and USB charge supported.

Bullet Points:

  • LiteRadio 3 upgrades with BETAFPV self-developed Customized LiteRadio System. Pilots can directly operate the Joystick Calibration and Firmware Update on the radio transmitter, which is more convenient for the beginner racer to operate.
  • Equipped with a built-in 2000 mAh 1S battery, LiteRadio 3 can work up to 15 hours without an external module, bringing an excellent endurance performance.
  • Comes with a built-in charging module, LiteRadio 3 supports USB charging which is more convenient to use. Meanwhile, it designs a Low-Power warning to indicate a low battery. It indicates a low battery and needs to be re-charged if the blue light flashes slowly and the buzzer beeps continuously.
  • Newly designed with a nano bay, it supports the external TX module. Highly recommend BETAFPV ELRS Nano Module, which is compatible with the LiteRadio 3 radio transmitter and makes CRSF protocol available.
  • Adopted the rubber coat, LiteRadio 3 is ergonomic and has the shape of a gaming controller. It's comfortable to hold, and the anti-slip texture on the handles allows for a solid grip.
  • It is the safest and quickest method to get started by using a model practice simulator for starters. LiteRadio 3 radio transmitter supports most of the simulators on market with comprehensive configuration.

    Weird smell
    Color: White-cooling Basic, Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
    The pillows are great for someone looking for something cool and comfortable. We loved them so much that we bought a second pair. However, we were seriously disappointed with the odor of our last purchase. They give off a strong and indescribable chemical/burning plastic smell so nauseating that it’s difficult to sleep with. We’re hoping this issue will resolve with a couple more washes of the pillow cases, but am worried the source is the stuffing itself.

    helped treat my sore neck
    Color: White-cooling Basic, Size: Camping Pillow(Pack of 1)
    This pillow — after dialing in the right amount of shredded foam — has greatly helped my sore neck. Initially, I had to remove some foam. Then I gradually added foam until it reached optimum comfort and support. It is also CPAP-friendly — especially when I position my head near the pillow's edge. (I am a left-side sleeper.) I like the travel size because I use a bulky hugging pillow to ease stress on my shoulder and elbow. That makes my side of the bed feel cramped if using a larger head pillow. A smaller pillow is easy to flip end-to-end in the middle of the night. I have spent lots of money on pillows over the years, but this is the best I've ever had for relieving [1] neck pain and [2] CPAP mask seal problems. Very comfortable, supportive, and affordable. I did not notice any unpleasant smell — and I am usually sensitive to that kind of thing. Would highly recommend.

    Love them!
    Color: White-cooling Basic, Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
    Love them! After 10 years with our MyPillows, they finally lost their fluff. The reviews I read of the MyPillows of today were not good; they didn’t have as much filling as they used to. These pillows remind me of how fluffy our new MyPillows were 10 years ago!! You sink right into them and can mush them however and they stay. These are way cheaper than the Coop and it’s the same concept; add or remove the filling as needed. The cooling side is a huge plus too! You won’t be disappointed with these pillows!

    super smooth, silky, stays comfortable feeling. DO NOT DRY or wash with heat
    Color: Blue, Size: Queen (U.S. Standard), Set name: Stretchy and Soft, Color: Blue, Size: Queen (U.S. Standard), Set name: Stretchy and Soft
    I'm impressed. I have used cooling pillow cases before, and found them effective, but the cooling material have always been on just one side. These are 100% cooling material. The material is super smooth and silky feeling. It is great feeling against hair and skin (even better than my old polyester satin I was using before cooling pillowcases). The material is cool, and does not seem to get hot hot. The pillow cases are super stretchy with a small hidden zipper. They grab onto the pillow and dont loosen up. Makes my pillow look neat and clean, not sloppy from loose material. I can even have two pillows stacked and somehow despite being a smooth material, the pillows dont just slide off each other. The cooling aspect works by not trapping heat, not allowing heat to get to the pillow and hold it there. So yeh, the pillow case will feel warm eventually but if you have a fan, or AC, or flip the pillow, then it is is truly cool. Otherwise in my experience when I use a pillow without this, the pillow just gets hot, stays hot, and even with flipping it feels hot.. because the pillow itself has trapped the heat for remainder of night. Yuck. One thing to know and this is very important-- as I learned the hard way-- DO NOT DRY IN DRYER. DO NOT WASH IN HOT WATER. Heat will destroy the material ability to feel and stay cool. Do you want a regular heat trapping pillow case? Then go ahead and dry these in the dryer a few times and you will have a regular pillow case. HOw do I know? I bought these to replace another set (different brand, same idea, same instructions that I failed to remember). I always dried them in the dryer, and one night after having gloriously cool pillows, I noticed that my pillow was HOT night after night. It was then when looking for another set of pillow cases that I learned that they cant be exposed to heat like that. SO PLEASE, just AIR DRY. And so, after I got these and put them on my pillows, I had a much better nights rest. I remember thinking that I wasnt waking to rearrange my pillows. They were just comfortable all night long. Sure, I'd love an even colder pillow, but our room is on the warm side. But at least I wasnt noting the hot hot pillows anymore.

    If you are a hot sleeper these pillowcases are for you! Not only are they silky and beautiful, but they are cool to the touch!The Arc-Chill fabric absorbs heat and instantly cools your skin! If you are prone to insomnia, night sweats, give these a try! They come in a 2 pack and have a few different colors to try out. Highly recommend.
