The MULTI-Module is fully telemetry capable for all protocols that support telemetry. Your ability to use the telemetry information depends on the your transmitter hardware and your transmitter firmware.

This serial protocol does not require any hardware modifications, but will likely require updating the firmware on your radio. For those willing to do this, there are some nice advantages: - The model and protocol selection and binding is done from the Model Settings menu on the Tx - For telemetry capable transmitters, the telemetry integration is done seamlessly with the Tx firmware. (Note that FrSky TH9X/Turnigy 9X/R transmitters require a telemetry mod to be done before telemetry can work).
