Your Radio Can Talk. You Should Listen.

Your Radio Can Talk. You Should Listen.

Trying to read telemetry on your radio's screen mid-flight is a fantastic way to test your drone's durability against the ground. For those who'd rather not, EdgeTX can just tell you what you need to know. Your radio literally speaks, announcing vital stats like battery voltage or altitude, so you can keep your eyes on the expensive thing in the sky. A shockingly simple concept.

You can set it up on a switch for on-demand updates. Flick it, get the data, get back to flying. Or, if you're feeling particularly clever, use Logical Switches to make it automatic. Set a threshold for low battery, and the radio will politely inform you it's time to land before you're forced to. It’s like a back-seat pilot, only less annoying and infinitely more useful.

This whole setup stops you from flying blind. No more guesswork, no more frantic glances at a tiny screen. Just clean, audible data when you need it. The video below breaks it down, but if you're the type who enjoys reading manuals, you can find the full, unabridged guide right here. For everyone else, you now know enough to be dangerous.
