Performance Enhancements

While maintaining the same large LCD screen as the Zorro, the Zorro Max supports both OpenTX and EdgeTX operating systems. The controller offers internal RF options of 4-in-1 multi-protocol or ELRS and a folding 2db antenna. It also includes built-in USB-C charging and data port capabilities.

Added Functionality

The Zorro Max boasts additional controls and features, such as rear and top assignable push buttons, scroll wheels, headphone audio output, and external power source input. It also offers a nano-sized external RF module bay compatible with TBS Nano Crossfire, Nano Tracer, IRC Ghost, and other modules. The controller can switch between Mode 1 and Mode 2 without disassembly and has adjustable hall gimbals.

Compatibility and Accessories

Compatible with most receivers and protocols on the market, the upgraded radio can control up to 16 channels (Rx dependent) and supports RadioMaster’s RP1 and RP2 ExpressLRS nano receivers. It comes with a screen protector, USB-C cable, stickers, a manual, and optional accessories such as batteries and a carry case. The controller features a firmware upgrade method via USB or SD card and comes with EdgeTX firmware pre-installed.
