Thanks a bunch for all the info, Lee! 😃 I was thinking about getting a new radio, perhaps a Boxer... But now I'm thinking about staying with the X9D longer and getting this module! 😂 Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Im looking fo buy this product, the only thing holding me (other than budget) is the antenna. Surely an antenna designed for a specific band would have better performance than a dual-band antenna, right? But when using GeminiX how could i know which RP-SMA port is transceiving 915mhz and which is 2.4ghz? By having this information we could replace the dual band antenna with a specific band antenna with most likely better gain and performance. Or we could also use a directional antenna to have maximum range while sacrificing ease of usage and signal coverage. Thank you in advance.
@Painless360 first of all, thank you for the reply. But referring to my original comment/question. What if someone wanted to use a directional antenna?
@@Painless360 I just got a reply from radiomaster technical support. And this is what they say for anyone wondering. "Nomad can not fix which port only sends 915, which port only sends 2.4, they are alternating, so can not fix the single frequency antenna"
If they add PWM receivers in the future , that would bring me on board. Current Ranger Micro is doing a great job but more redundancy is always a bonus. Given the low cost to change , would this provide more redundancy with existing 2.4 RxS given the dual output antenna, or is it overkill for RC planes ?
@@skylar7320 thanks will take a look. I miss my FRsky voltage and current readers that I could daisy chain under the old protocol. I love ELRS but wish there were options with inbuilt stabilisation and accessories to read current for RC planes. Hopefully in time.
Will the Moxon antennas work better than the stock antennas? and what antenna transmit what freq? like If I have the 915 Moxon on the left. will it automatically detect that the 915 antenna is on the left and the 2.4 Moxon on the right?
Yes, lots of options like mounting the compass away from the power system or using one of the other methods like CompassMOT. It's all in the Ardupilot docs... best of luck

I wish I found this a couple weeks ago.. I just got the ranger module.. this looks great.
Just picked one of these NOMAD Gemini modules up the othe day. set up my bind phrase. connected to my tiny whoops. no issuees so far. : )
What kinda reciever on your tiny whoop?
@@SonofJesusChristz I have a YMZFPV Lightning 2 and a mobula 8hd. both walksnail.

Dual frequency antennas are nothing new. They work extremely well... Happy flying

Matek makes a great set of CRSF to PWM boards, some have current sensor, some have vario, GPS input for telemetry. It’s pretty neat stuff.

Does this support sending RC only 900mhz while using mavlink-rc on 2.4 ghz for maximum data throughput?
Seconded!
Currently NO. In the future Not planned.

where do you configure the 2 buttons on back?
in the web page of TX
@@MatCron On radiomaster ranger I see the config in the page, but on this one it shows nothing about buttons..
Exusme.. Is the controller pixhawk-6c affected by the magnetic field? In vtol with high current
And what is the solution
Yes, lots of options like mounting the compass away from the power system or using one of the other methods like CompassMOT. It's all in the Ardupilot docs... best of luck
Am very new to rc so which one has a longer range Bandit or nomad ?
Both will easily cover what is legal range in most places... Happy flying
what the two button at the front under the radiomaster logo is for exactly?
You can program them as you want, for bind, to activate wifi, etc etc this is done in the web page of tx
I want to know if telemetry can be on 900 and full control on 2.4?
I think it would be possible, but you'd need a specific receiver for that... And I don't know if any exists yet.
Is the 900mhz eu compliant ?
Not yet. See my videos on it.. Happy flying
Could be interesting for us RC sub guys.
Too bad it doesn’t fit all nano bay radios
