TBS Unify PRO32 Nano : 1 Gram Video Transmitter!
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Size doesn't matter anymore! The TBS Unify PRO32 Nano is one of the best VTX TBS has ever made.
Dont confuse the PRO32 with the original Nano. The PRO32 has a physical button and outputs some of the cleanest video I've seen.
Check out the post to see the schematic and setup instructions: fpv-flightclub.com/tbs-unify-...
Chapters:
PRO32 Nano vs Original Nano 1:33
Crossfire SmartAudio VTX Setup 3:20
How to unlock Unify VTX 5:15
Video Test vs Unify RACE 6:40
Highlights:
- 4.5 - 5.5v Input
- u.FL antenna connection
- 25mw, 100mw, 400mw output
- SmartAudio 2.1
- Ultra-clean transmission up to 16 pilots at once
- 13.5 x 15.5 x 3mm
- 1g
The PRO32 uses SmartAudio 2.1 which as of this post is not supported by BetaFlight yet. If you are having issues getting it to work on BetaFlightOSD, this is why it's not working.
You have to use SmartAudio connected to Crossfire or use the physical button to change VTX settings.
Parts used in this build. This build came out to 238g with no props or battery.

Great video! I was wondering if you could help me understand my tbs nano. I want to swap out my current vtx “betafpv m02” for the nano pro32 but the wiring is labeled different so I’m kind of confused, also my camera is powered from vtx nano doesn’t look like it has the same setup? So how do I lower my fpv feed?

What antenna are you using on your crsf module?
I just bought the TBS 32 pro nano for my betafpv 1s meteor75. - Do you think i can put it to 400mW or will it burn the voltage regulator on the f4 1-2s board ? Is 400mW too much for runnig on 1s ?
Really helpful review. Have you ever tried higher power like 400mw? Doesn't it get easily too hot and cause MCU temperature problem, especially when it's attached directly onto the FC board?

Check out the WhiteNoiseFPV Unify Nano-Nano mounting board. You can put it at the top of your 20x20 stack so it's not laying on top of anything and has an air gap under and above it. It's a super nice solution. People run 400mW no problem btw.

That's great. I was wondering if it was a full size Aikon. My TBS Race on this set up had similar noise and when I replaced it with an older Aikon the noise went away. Good to see the 20x20 set up is super clean. Will have to do the same on my next build.
Is that why so many only get 250mW? they didnt unlock it? i dont know if I unlocked mine. its on a whoop so i never leave 25mW.. but might put this on Long Range Micro.. Pro32 Nano or Tramp Nano
Awesome... Its crazy to see just how bad the noise is on the unify race compared to the pro32

yes, the newer versions of betaflight works with it. you just have to unlock the vtx for smartaudio to work
Have you been to Canada?
Its odd, because they both have noise in the video image - the nano has smaller, constant noise and the HV has wider, more flickery noise. Its like two different noise patterns - but the nano is a more flyable noise overall.
I seen 1 gram and I was like ah shit we talking dab hits on this channel 😂
I'm in DFW, I need people to fly with!
SmartAudio should work with the Betaflight OSD IF you add an external 10k ohm resistor between the SmartAudio/UART TX line and ground. SmartAudio 2.1 operates at 3.3V instead of the 5V coming from the flight controller UART. The 10k ohm resistor pulls down the voltage enough for the unify nano to work properly. There are other ways of getting it to work with special hex file versions of betaflight, but adding the resistor is easier in my opinion. Unify VTXs are pretty much all I run because they have great features at reasonable prices. They are the gold standard at race events for a reason. Great video Mike! Keep it up.

So irritating,. smart audio does not work on nano32 either? I have x4 tbs nano and smart audio works 1/2 the time on lua and betaflight osd. I believe tbs made it to only work with crsf. Yes i have tried using 10k ohm res and have not managed to get it to work. The button was easy to solder on for me at least so I can change channels. My video still looks great

@@danlatu209 According to Josh B., if you have a SA 2.1 VTX, there are 2 possible fixes: 1. Take a 10K resistor and place it between the SA line and ground.

So as of now the latest Unify Pro32 Nano does not work with smart audio without adding some kind of resistor to the vtx and the only way to change vtx settings is through Crossfire or the manual button method?

this fix is for "SA lite" with incompatible betaflight FC hardware (it's not really a software issue). the SA 2.1 incompatibility is simply because the protocol is too new. Betaflight now supports it, though.

Great review! Thanks! 😁👍 I know they're trying to make it as light as possible, but the .ufl antenna connector makes it undesirable for me! Those damn things are the worst connector ever developed for FPV! Its lifespan is so damn short before it doesn't work anymore! Plus, getting an antenna to stay on is nearly impossible... Even when using glue! I hate them! Oscar's backpack VTX is better because it has an MMCX. Sure it's slightly heavier, but I'd rather have a little more weight if the antenna will stay on, and last more than a few times of taking it on and off! The .ufl is pathetic! 😒 I can't believe they developed something that works so poorly!
