Frequently Asked Questions

Choose the receiver protocol matching your radio transmitter:

  • ELRS (ExpressLRS 2.4GHz / 915MHz): Modern open-source protocol with ultra-low latency and extreme range.
  • TBS Nano RX (Crossfire): Battle-tested long-range protocol with proven reliability.
  • PNP (Plug and Play): No receiver installed — install your own receiver module.

For 7-inch long-range quads like the GEPRC MOZ7 V2, we recommend a 6S 3000mAh – 5000mAh LiPo for dynamic freestyle flights, or a 6S2P 8000mAh Li-Ion pack (21700 cells) for maximum cruising flight times of 25–30 minutes.

Yes. Models equipped with GPS modules feature pre-configured Betaflight GPS Rescue mode. When satellite lock is acquired prior to arming, the drone will automatically climb, turn, and fly back toward the takeoff point if radio connection is lost.
