The RFD900 TXMOD V2 Bundle is an all-in-one long-range telemetry data and RC control system.
**Compatibility note: The TXMOD works with X and UX modems only.
The TXMOD V2 release supports SPORT telemetry data from the vehicle back to the RC transmitter unit.
Designed to work in conjunction with any Radio Controller capable of accepting JR Transmitter Modules, the RFD TX Module can transmit the PPM stream from the controller to the vehicle via the RFD900X long range telemetry modem while also receiving telemetry data received from the aircraft.
The module’s built in WiFi link allows for simple webpage based configuration and broadcasting of telemetry data to a computer or smart device.
It is a JR style module that plugs into most RC transmitter that has CAN accept JR style modules (Frsky Taranis, JR, Frsky Horus, Radio Master TX165).
It provides a bridge between the RC transmitter and aircraft while carrying RC PPM data and mavlink telemetry streams at the same time.

RC – TXMOD Compatibility
The TXMOD has been designed to fit into the rear expansion bay of an FrSky Taranis X9D Plus. It may be compatible with other transmitters however the determination of this is the user’s responsibility. Check that the dimensions of the slot and the pin configuration of the connector at the back of your RC match those specified for the TXMOD. For detailed information on the TXMOD dimensions refer to section 6.5 and pinout details can be found in Table 1 above.
