F-Port combines SBUS and Smartport telemetry in a single wire. Not only does this simplify a build, but it also saves a UART on the flight controller. So now you can get 2 way telemetry data, including RSSI with very little setup required.
The receiver uses direct solder points for its connections, which makes the Rx very small and even suitable for micro quad. Finally, its antennas can be easily replaced as it uses the snap on / off IPEX connector.
Please note this Rx supports FrSky D16 International Firmware (not EU LBT).
Advantages of F.Port over S.Bus: In simple terms, F.Port is a combination of SBUS, S.Port and RSSI into one wire.
Compatiblility & Setup:
Any F3, F4 or F7 FC with a spare UART should be able to run FPort. Update your FC to the latest Betaflight firmware. On the Ports tab enable the “Serial RX” for your chosen UART. In the Configuration tab, select “FPort” in Receiver Protocol. Finally, under the ‘Other Features’ menu, enable telemetry. For OpenTx users, to view telemetry information on your radio go to the telemetry page, select “Delete all Sensors”, and then “Discover new Sensor” – RSSI information should then appear.
