The stock firmware in the V2 board is upgraded since 2020 December. This new firmware is also used on Starter Kit 2 and Beta65S Lite drones at the same time. 

  • Support upgrading firmware via the USB port and PC Configurator easily.
  • Include a new mode named STARTER, it is the default mode for this board out of the factory.

Basic Manual for New Firmware

In the default STARTER mode, here is something new or different.

  • Power on first and after the system loads successfully, press the button and enter the binding status.
  • Use the switch SB in the radio transmitter to change the flying mode. The flight mode is "Level mode" if switch SB is down (LEVL-S). "Horizon mode" if switch SB is in the middle (HOR-S).  "Acro mode" if switch SB is up (ACRO-S).
  • Use the switch SC in the radio transmitter to change the VTX Channels. Available channels follow this sequence: 5733/5752/5771/5790/5809/5828/5847/5866 which corresponds to band B.

With the new firmware, if you want to use the original LiteSilverware features, like the stick sequences, change the PID value, etc, please change to the ADVANCED mode. Go to the OSD menu CONFIG page, select the MODE.  The right stick gimbal, pull left twice and right twice, the STARTER mode will change to ADVANCED mode. Then save and exit.

 

For more details, please check the manuals below. Both the manuals for the new firmware and the original Silverware firmware are available now.

Silverware & LiteOSD

Silverware is firmware for some micro quadcopters, which support level mode and acro mode. So you could use this on whoop FPV racing. Also, it has the ability to change settings for custom builds or to adapt to personal preferences. 

LiteOSD is also integrated into the V2 board. So that you could set up many configurations according to your own preference easily. The method of entering the OSD Menu on Lite Brushed FC is the same as Betaflight. Make sure the drone is disarmed when entering OSD Menu on Lite 1S Brushless FC.



-Use Mode 2 (American Mode) as an example-
Note: The left throttle stick should be at the middle position and then pull left.
Note: AETR is the default channel mapping of Lite FC. If you can not enter the OSD menu, it might cause by unmatched channel mapping.

If you use a toy transmitter like LiteRadio 1, and also active the TOY_TX option in the OSD menu. You could enter the OSD menu when the throttle stick in the lowest position.

Supported Radio Transmitter

Currently, the built-in receiver is compatible with the Bayang protocol. Here is a listing of radio transmitters that could be compatible with this FC board.

If not sure whether your radio transmitter could support this FC board, please email us ( info@betafpv.com) for help.

For example, if you have a Frsky Tanaris QX7 / X9D radio transmitter and want to try this FC board, just plug in a BETAFPV LiteModule RF and done.

Some pilots would complain that it is definitely not a long range FC. It loses signal with my transmitter far too often and for what appears to be no reason. This issue is often caused by the location of the antenna. You should keep the antenna away from the FC board to get a stronger signal. For example, run the signal upwards. Thanks for Harley Feinberg's advice.
