RC Ghost is PFQ (Pretty… Quick)

Choose from several modes of operation in your Ghost Transmitter. The slowest of the two Race modes runs at a 160Hz frame rate, while the fastest ‘Pure Race’ rate opens the throttle to a 250Hz* frame rate.

OpenTx to Flight Controller latency is expected to run below 4ms.

Can racers feel this? a good question to ask… but maybe a better question is whether you want to race against a pilot which is using it…

2.4GHz And Long Range Capabilities

ImmersionRC is setting a new standard with its Ghost system serving both the needs of Long-Range pilots, Freestylers, and Racers.

Easily achieve ranges of 10s of km with equipment light enough, and antennas compact enough, to perfectly accompany your Nano Goblin™ into the neighboring country.

Since 2.4GHz antennas are relatively small, a directional antenna on the transmitter can easily double the expected range.

‘Micro Failsafes’ – Never Again

The EU-legal 868MHz is a paltry 2MHz wide. Packet loss with even 4 pilots in the air is not pretty. Add another 4, and racing isn’t fun anymore.

The USA-legal 915MHz band is a little better, at 15MHz wide.

The Worldwide 2.4GHz band provides 76MHz of bandwidth, and will comfortably house countless simultaneous links without large numbers of lost packets.

With recent enhancements to Flight Controllers (feed-forward) providing superb performance, but quite sensitive to packet loss, every little help.

Ghost Modular Transmitters

The first Ghost Transmitter is a ‘Lite Tx’ style module, with an integrated OLED display and Joystick. Configure it seamlessly without the need to interact with Lua scripts.
Depending upon the region, up to 350mW of RF power may be emitted through supplied short-dipole antenna. Antenna diversity is the default mode of operation, but the single antenna mode is a menu option away.
A simple menu system shows all critical parameters, including a spectrum analyzer, and a real-time display of system latency, from R/C Tx to Flight Controller.

Tiny Receivers

Size matters. The Ghost Átto receiver weighs in at about 0.6g, and is only 14.8 x 11.5mm, a 15% smaller footprint than its closest competitor.

Most standard protocols are supported, including PWM, SBus, Fast SBus (200k), SRXL-2 (400k) and an inverted SBus (or rather an inverted-inverted SBus) to increase flexibility with F4 FCs.

Deja-Vu binding ensures that receivers already ‘known’ by a Ghost transmitter (through a previous bind operation) no longer require a button press to bind them. This also goes for new receivers, which will bind for the first time without the need for the button (all of this because we can’t stand tearing models open to find that buried bind button).

Editor’s Note: Should we mention that the Átto is the ‘Big’receiver?… more on that later.

Orqa Goggle Integration

That space on the FPV.Connect board… yeah, that is for a Ghost receiver, the Átto.

Ghost transmitters and receivers can form a network, without the need to use Bluetooth or wifi, and communicate between themselves without sacrificing critical control performance.

Clear channel scan with automatic channel assignment, auto-start DVR recording when the throttle stick is raised, and a bunch of other cool features planned for 2021.

 

Hybrid vTx/Ghost Rx

A unique product in the FPV world, a perfect marriage of a high performance Ghost receiver, with a best-in-class Tramp video transmitter, on a single-sided 20x20 stack-mounted board.
One warning with this product... once used, it is very difficult to go back to the old way of doing things.

Proton Packs for Days

Simple PCBs designed to dramatically simplify wiring, mounting, and cooling of Tramp Nano + Ghost combinations.

36×36 single-sided, 20×20 double-sided, 20×20 single-sided, ‘Toothpick style’, and a special version designed for the Five33 Tiny Trainer.

qTee Antennas

qTee, a.k.a ‘Cutie’ antennas are center-fed dipoles, with integral balun to ensure no cable radiation, and without unexpected nulls in the radiation pattern.

Tip to Tip length of just 60mm, easy to install in anything from a Whoop™ to an X-Class quad

Systems Integrators/Manufacturers

ImmersionRC is open to discuss with manufacturers who wish to embed Ghost into other systems (Hobby, Industrial, Law Enforcement, etc.). An embedded Ghost 2.4GHz Rx occupies approx. 10mm x 10mm of PCB space.

For use on sub-GHz bands, the ‘Red Ghost’ product line can be custom ordered for use on licensed bands from 140MHz to 1GHz.

GPS + Noise

Another advantage of running 2.4GHz instead of the more traditional sub-GHz frequencies for long-range is that 2.4GHz has no harmonics that can desensitize GPS receivers (which are in the 1.5GHz band), so GPS position fixes become more precise.

In addition, Drone/Quad/UAV electrical noise due to fast switching signals is broadband, and also sub-GHz (typically sub-500MHz), and doesn’t desensitize the 2.4GHz Ghost receiver.

FrSky Ethos Support

Ghost will be fully supported in FrSky's upcoming Ethos operating system, due out shortly in their upcoming X20 radio.
