EdgeTX is an open-source firmware for RC radio transmitters, forked from OpenTX with a touch-enabled UI, Lua scripting support, and broad hardware/protocol compatibility. It is a community-driven project with frequent releases and an active ecosystem of companion tools.

Use cases

  • flash custom firmware onto my RC transmitter
  • customize my radio control transmitter controls and mixes
  • run Lua scripts on my RC radio
  • replace OpenTX with a more modern radio firmware
  • set up my transmitter for FPV racing drones
  • configure multi-protocol RC radio for different models

When to choose

  • you own a supported RC transmitter (e.g. Radiomaster, Jumper, Flysky) and want a modern, customizable firmware
  • you want touch UI, Lua scripting, and rapid feature development over OpenTX
  • you want community-driven firmware with active development and broad protocol support

When to avoid

  • you need maximum stability over cutting-edge features and prefer the conservative OpenTX
  • your transmitter model is not on the supported hardware list
  • you need a turnkey commercial firmware with vendor support
