iFlight Commando 8 Nano RC Transmitter — ELRS 2.4GHz 100mW, Hall Gimbals, TCXO, 165g, Simulator Ready
The iFlight Commando 8 Nano is a compact, beginner-friendly FPV radio transmitter built for new and young pilots entering the RC and FPV hobby. Weighing just 165g with a foldable ELRS 2.4GHz antenna, the Commando 8 Nano combines a built-in ELRS 2.4GHz 100mW TX module, high-precision Hall effect gimbals, and a TCXO (Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator) for class-leading frequency stability — all in a palm-sized form factor that fits in a pocket or bag. No complex setup required: pair with an iFlight ELRS receiver and start flying immediately. Available in right throttle (Mode 2) and left throttle (Mode 1).
Key Features
- Built-in ELRS 2.4GHz 100mW TX Module — Integrated ExpressLRS 2.4GHz module at 100mW (20dBm) output; paired with a foldable external antenna for strong signal coverage and stable long-distance flights without an external module bay
- High-Precision Hall Effect Gimbals — Hall sensor gimbals outperform traditional potentiometer-based sticks with smoother response, higher precision, longer lifespan, and zero contact wear; two stick length options available to match personal flying style
- TCXO Frequency Stability — Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator minimizes frequency drift across temperature changes; delivers some of the best crystal frequency stability available in a beginner radio — works optimally with TCXO-equipped ELRS receivers for safe, reliable signal transmission
- 6-Hour Battery Life — Built-in 1S2P 1100mAh Li-ion battery (2x 18350 cells, 3.7V) provides approximately 6 hours of flying; fully recharges in ~50 minutes via the 5V 2A Type-C port
- FPV Simulator Compatible — Connects directly to PC/Mac FPV simulators (Liftoff, VelociDrone, and others) via Type-C USB — no dongle required; ideal for building stick skills before flying real aircraft
- Compact & Lightweight — 165g — At 165g with a compact 138 × 105 × 72mm footprint, the Commando 8 Nano fits easily in a bag or pocket; foldable antenna keeps the profile slim during transport
- No Complex Setup — Designed for instant usability; pair with an iFlight ELRS-compatible receiver and fly — no EdgeTX/OpenTX configuration experience required to get started
Variant Guide
- Right Throttle — Throttle on the right stick (Mode 1 / common in Europe and some Asian markets)
- Left Throttle — Throttle on the left stick (Mode 2 / standard in North America and most of the world)
