This is a review for the HGLRC ELRS 915MHz T ONE TX Nano 2W Module.HGLRC is making a name for itself as a long-range FPV vendor. I’m finding myself grabbing more of their gear. The best thing is that their gear works great, and I’ve never had a bad experience to date.The HGLRC 915MHz transmitter is no different. I recently picked up the HGLRC Recon Y6 and swapped the receiver with an HGLRC ELRS dual-band unit. I was able to bind the 915 transmitter to it with no issues. In my test flight, I went out about a mile, and the transmit power only went to 250mW at the most while turning around. Crazy. I paired the transmitter with the Radiomaster Pocket; it snaps right on, and the setup was like any other transmitter. You can configure the packet rate from the transmitter module, but I left it at the default. The transmitter can accept an XT-30 connector for external power, but most modern controllers provide it without the additional power source. It has an adaptor for other controllers, but I didn’t need it for the Pocket. The transmitter has a fan to help keep things cool on those long-range flights that require more power. While we’re only allowed to transmit to 1 Watt in the U.S., it can transmit up to 2 Watts. I’ve flown long range for a while and rarely go above 500mW, but it's nice to know it’s there if I need it!Other thoughts: I find it odd that HGLRC didn’t just make this transmitter a dual-band unit that can transmit on 2.4GHz and 915MHz. As far as I know, they don’t have a dual-band transmitter; however, as I mentioned, they make a dual-band receiver. So maybe this is just a lower-cost unit? I can’t imagine that adding 2.4GHz would cost much more. However, other dual-band transmitters also don’t have as much transmit power, so I see this more as an ELRS alternative to Crossfire.Overall, if you are looking for a high-powered ELRS transmitter on 915MHz, this should get your long-range rig out further than you’ll ever need. The value is better than crossfire, but a little more than some dual-band or single-band 2.4GHz modules. Highly recommended.

This 900MHz ELRS transmitter is awesome. It features a 2-watt output power, an OLED display, a control joystick, and even a status RGB LED. It also comes with a large, high-quality-feeling antenna.Using the ELRS script, or the OLED display and joystick, you can set the output power, packet rate, WiFi mode, bind mode, and basically every function of the transmitter. This makes it extremely easy to set up, modify, and bind.The transmitter also comes with two rear plastic housings that can easily be switched for the micro or nano bay housing. This ensures compatibility with basically every modern radio out of the box without an adapter. I swapped the housing easily with the included hex key and fitted the module into my TX16s.Overall, I’m very impressed with the module. It feels premium, has all the extra bells and whistles, supports the latest and greatest ELRS features, and fits every one of my radios. Overall, I definitely recommend it if you are after a 900MHz ELRS transmitter!
