Remote control overview

Batteries and charging

Boxer has a built-in USB-C charging function for 3.7V lithium batteries. The charging circuit is only designed to charge 2x 3.7V Li-ion 18650 or 2x 3.7V Li-Poly batteries (2s 7.4v Lipo battery pack), the nominal battery voltage is 3.7V, the charged voltage is 4.2V/Cell. Do not use LiFE battery packs or 18650 lithium-ion batteries with a nominal voltage of 3.6v with a fully charged voltage of 4.10V. Charging the incorrect type of battery may damage the charger or cause a fire. If using Li-ion, ensure the cells are not protected and are button-top cells. Please check the voltage and condition of the battery regularly and never charge it unattended. Always charge in a safe area away from combustible materials. Refrain from charging if the remote control gets wet or damaged in any way. Do not charge with the polarity reversed

RadioMaster does not assume any responsibility for any adverse consequences caused by the use or misuse of this product.

Model and protocol selection (multi-protocol module)

The Boxer comes with 4in1 or CC2500 multi-protocol internal RF module, which is compatible with several different protocols. To view the latest list of all compatible protocols, please visit https://www.-multi-module.org/ Please note that new protocols will be constantly updated and added to the latest firmware. Some new protocols may require firmware upgrades

• Long press the MDL button to enter the model settings, select MULTI in the SETUP page, and select the protocol to be used in the sub-options. The system will automatically turn on the corresponding RF module according to the RF protocol you selected.
• Bind [BND] is used to start the binding process.
• Range [RNG] button can reduce the power to 1/30 to facilitate testing of remote-control distance.

Model selection and protocol selection (ELRS version)

Boxer ELRS units are equipped with an internal ELRS module, capable of providing 25mW-1000mW RF output. In non-extreme circumstances, 100mW output at 500Hz update rate is recommended, as higher RF output and update rates may significantly reduce battery life and generate excessive heat.

Bind instructions

1. Turn off the transmitter

2. Cycle power to the receiver 3 times, the receiver LED will flash twice- indicating bind mode.

3. Turn on the transmitter, long press the SYS button and choose the ExpressLRS LUA under the
   TOOLS menu. Scroll down to [Bind] and press enter.

4. The LED on the receiver should now be solid, indicating successful bind.
