RadioMaster TX16S Mark II Max ELRS — Hall Gimbal FPV Radio Controller

The RadioMaster TX16S Mark II Max is the flagship FPV radio controller — the gold standard for pilots who want every switch, every dial, and maximum configurability on a single radio. Recommended by Joshua Bardwell (fpvknowitall.com) for any pilot who flies planes with retracts, wants the large colour touchscreen for on-radio configuration, or simply wants the most feature-complete transmitter available.

The Mark II Max ships with AG01 CNC-machined metal hall-effect gimbals — magnetic sensors with no physical contact, no wear surface, no end-stop feel degradation over time. Hall gimbals produce the cleanest gimbal signal for rate-mode flying where stick precision directly translates to flight feel. EdgeTX 2.x firmware (backward-compatible with all OpenTX models) runs on the STM32H743 processor and supports the full mixer, telemetry display, Lua scripting, and model file ecosystem.

The built-in 2.4GHz ExpressLRS module delivers sub-3ms link latency at 500Hz packet rate. The full-size JR bay accepts any third-party RF module for legacy protocols (FrSky D8/D16, Spektrum, FlySky, Crossfire) — one radio covers your entire fleet across every protocol you have ever used.

• Internal RF: ExpressLRS 2.4GHz (ELRS), 250mW
• Link latency: less than 3ms at 500Hz
• Gimbals: AG01 CNC hall-effect metal gimbals
• Firmware: EdgeTX 2.x (OpenTX compatible)
