ExpressLRS (ELRS) 2.4GHz Protocol now available! Up to 100mW output.
If purchasing as a replacement radio, Tinyhawk 3 RTF series uses the FrSky D8 protocol, while the Tinyhawk 3 Plus RTF series uses ExpressLRS 2.4GHz.
Radios appear and operate identically but can be identified by their charging ports. The FrSky D8 variant uses micro-USB while the ExpressLRS variant uses USB-C.
Utilizing high quality gimbals, the E8 transmitter offers unparalleled control over any aircraft, providing smoothness and precision over previous generations of EMAX transmitters.
Charging System: Built-in Micro-USB USB 5V--1A linear li-ion battery charging system
The EMAX E8 is an 8-channel 2.4GHz FPV transmitter designed as the dedicated radio for EMAX RTF and BNF drone packages. Available in FrSky D8 for Tinyhawk 3 RTF series compatibility, or ExpressLRS 2.4GHz for Tinyhawk 3 Plus RTF series and ELRS-equipped builds. High-quality gimbals deliver smooth, precise stick feel that outperforms previous EMAX transmitter generations, and the compact 150x140x45mm form factor keeps it comfortable for extended flying sessions. At 260g without battery, it’s light enough for beginners and capable enough for pilots stepping up from a basic radio. The two variants are externally identical — tell them apart by the charging port (micro-USB for D8, USB-C for ELRS).
