Team Black Sheep Crossfire RC System - Manual
Real-time telemetry by Bluetooth
The Standard TX (not the Lite version) got a built-in Bluetooth module that you can use for real-time
telemetry or wireless configuration of your FC. Depending on the incoming data, the CROSSFIRE selects the
Mode for the Bluetooth module for you.
For this you got different operation modes you can set it up to:
• OFF
○ Bluetooth module is completely disabled and won’t show up if you search for devices
• MAVLink Emulator (MAV Emu)
○ This mode is recommended if you have any kind of GPS source attached over BST ( TBS
GPS, DJI NAZA over TBS BLACKBOX, ET Vector, BetaFlight, etc). If this mode is selected an
FC is emulated inside the TBS CROSSFIRE transmitter. This gives you the ability to track
your copter/plane in real-time with any MAVLink capable app on your phone (e.g.
Droidplanner app ) or GCS on your PC or MAC (e.g. QGroundControl)
• Serial Bridge
○ This mode is used for a serial bridge between your connected device and the receiver
○ It can be used to wirelessly configure your FC
○ If serial data are registered from the receiver, the module will switch to this mode
○ As soon as the CROSSFIRE switches to 50Hz mode, the transmission will be stopped
• MAVLink
○ This mode is used to pass MAVLink messages back and forth. Use this mode if you have a
MAVLink FC connected to the receiver.
○ If MAVLink packages are detected by the CROSSFIRE receiver, the module will switch to this
mode
○ You can use the same applications as for MAVEmulation
○ With a MAVLink FC, you can wirelessly configure your FC (more details can be found in the
MAVLink over Bluetooth section
