LR1000 Mini Receiver Configuration Guide

Unmanned Tech have just started stocking the LR1000 Mini Receiver for FrSky from Furious FPV and we figured there should be a configuration guide for this great receiver.

The range on this thing is one full kilometre and it is packed full of cool features. It has a S-bus output without inverter, 8 channels of output (with a 9th channel dedicated to RSSI), a telemetry hub and full compatibility with FrSky Taranis, Taranis Plus, & XJT Module. Not bad.

Anyhow, let’s get on with the useful information…

Binding the receiver to the Frsky Taranis

On the Taranis, go to MODE SETUP (page 2) in the model configuration.
Go to Mode inside Internal RF and select D8.
Press and hold the receiver bind button and turn the receiver on (by plugging in your battery).
Release the button. A green LED light should light up on the receiver.
Going back to the Taranis; press BIND. The transmitter beeps, indicating it’s in bind mode.
Wait for the green LED on the receiver to turn off. The binding procedure has finished.
Exit the BIND mode in the Taranis.
Unplug the battery to turn off the receiver.

Binding the receiver to the XJT module

Using the dip switches on the XJT module, select the D8 mode. They should be in the following position: switch 1 = ON, switch 2 = OFF.
Press and hold the receiver bind button and turn the receiver on (by plugging in your battery).
Release the button. A green LED light should light up on the receiver.
Press and hold the bind button and turn the transmitter on.
Release the button. A green light should blink on the module, indicating it’s in bind mode.
Wait for the green LED on the receiver to turn off. The binding procedure has finished.
Turn the transmitter off.
Unplug the battery to turn off the receiver.

Receiver Configuration in the Cleanflight configurator

In the PORTS PORTS tab, select the UART that corresponds to the receiver (usually UART3 in F3 flight controllers) and activate Serial RX.
Save by clicking on the Save and Reboot button.
In the CONFIGURATION tab, in the Receiver Mode section, select RX_SERIAL.
In the same tab, in the Serial Receiver Provider section, select SBUS.
Save by clicking on the Save and Reboot button.
Go to CLI and type the following commands:
set sbus_inversion = OFF
save
The FC will reboot, applying the change.
Go to the RECEIVER tab and make sure the receiver acts like it should.

Telemetry Configuration

In the PORTSPORTS tab, select the UART that corresponds to the telemetry (usually UART2 in F3 flight controllers) and select FrSky in Telemetry. Leave the baud rate on AUTO.
Go to CLI, and type the following commands:
set telemetry_inversion = ON
save
The FC will reboot, applying the change.
Make sure you’re getting the telemetry values in our Taranis correctly.
