Real time telemetry by Bluetooth
The Standard Tx (not the Lite version) got a built-in bluetooth module that you can use for real time
telemetry or wireless configuration of your fc. Depending on the incoming data, the Crossfire selects the
Mode for the bluetooth module for you.
For this you got different operation modes you can set it up to:
• OFF
○ Bluetooth module is completely disabled and won’t show up if you search for devices
• MAVLink Emulator (MAV Emu)
○ This mode is recommended if you have any kind of GPS source attached over BST ( TBS
GPS, DJI NAZA over TBS BLACKBOX, ET Vector, BetaFlight etc). If this mode is selected an FC
is emulated inside the TBS CROSSFIRE transmitter. This gives you the ability to track your
copter/plane in real-time with any MAVLink capable app on your phone (e.g. Droidplanner
app ) or GCS on your PC or MAC (e.g. QGroundControl)
• Serial Bridge
○ This mode is used for serial bridge between your connected device and the receiver
○ It can be used to wirelessly configure your fc
○ If serial datas are registered from the receiver, the module will switch to this mode
○ As soon as the Crossfire switches to 50Hz mode, the transmission will be stopped
• MAVLink
○ This mode is used to pass MAVLink messages back and forth. Use this mode if you have a
MAVLink FC connected to the receiver.
○ If Mavlink packages are detected by the Crossfire receiver, the module will switch to this
mode
○ You can use the same applications as for MAVEmulation
○ With a MAVLink fc you can wirelessly configure your fc (more details can be found in the
Mavlink over Bluetooth section

The standard TBS CROSSFIRE transmitter supports standard head-tracking input via the right 3-pin HT port.
Solder the included pigtail cable to suit your particular head-tracking setup. Only a two wire connection
between TBS CROSSFIRE and the head-tracker is required. The PPM feed from the head-tracker needs to
be connected to the PPM pin of the PPM pin and ground needs to be connected to ground of the 3-pin
PPM cable.
