Achieve a reliable, full-range control link in one of the smallest packages available with the legendary FrSky XM micro receiver. Celebrated for its incredibly small footprint and feather-light 1-gram weight, the XM is the go-to choice for FPV drone builders where every gram counts. It’s a simple, no-frills drone part that delivers the reliable performance you need for your ultralight FPV drone, racer, or tiny whoop.
The Ultimate in Size and Weight
At only 15x10mm and weighing just 1 gram, the FrSky XM is designed for builds where space and weight are critical. Its tiny size allows it to be easily tucked away in even the most compact FPV drone frames, making it an ideal choice for high-performance toothpick and racing builds that need to stay as light as possible.
Simple, Full-Range Performance
The XM focuses on one thing: providing a reliable SBUS signal for up to 16 channels over a full-range distance (>600m). This is a non-telemetry receiver, which simplifies the setup process and keeps its size to a minimum. It features a dedicated RSSI pad, allowing you to easily output your signal strength value to your flight controller for display on your FPV drone’s OSD (On-Screen Display).
Key Features:
- Feather-Light 1g Weight: Adds virtually no weight to your build, making it perfect for ultralight and racing drones where performance is critical.
- Ultra-Compact Footprint: At only 15x10mm, it can be easily installed in the tightest of FPV drone frames.
- Full-Range Performance: Provides a reliable control link up to and beyond 600m for most freestyle and racing applications.
- 16 Channel SBUS Output: Delivers all your channels over a single wire for a clean and simple connection to your flight controller.
- Dedicated RSSI Pad: Allows for easy output of your signal strength to your OSD, so you always know the status of your control link.
