Product overview
The iFlight Commando 8 Lite Radio Transmitter provides eight radio channels through an integrated ExpressLRS 2.4GHz system with an SX1280 and 100mW output. Designed primarily for novice freestyle operation, it includes an ELRS transmitter module pre-installed in the back of the radio, so ELRS operation requires no additional external module. A temperature compensated crystal oscillator supports frequency stability and low packet loss. IFlight ELRS receivers are recommended for maximum performance, and the transmitter runs an iFlight-developed system.
Control hardware includes mini high-precision digital Hall gimbals with NMB bearings and stock 18mm stick ends. Two 5-axis menu buttons provide gimbal trim, including fine-tuning to correct drone attitude tilt during flight. The switch arrangement comprises two non-momentary 2-position switches that can be used for arming and two 3-position switches. A built-in SMD antenna and detachable gimbal support portability. The transmitter has no display screen, supports simulator connection through Type-C only, and does not support coach mode.
The built-in 4000mAh 1S2P battery uses two 2000mAh 18650 batteries and provides up to 20h of operation. Charging uses a Type-C connector with 10W Quick Charge. The package contains one Commando8 Lite Radio Transmitter; the receiver and charger are sold separately. An optional external antenna upgrade is available for longer flight distances, and alternative gimbal stick ends are available to adapt the controls.
