VTX Wireless Transmitter + RBox Ground Receiver System
The ZYRO C403 Max is a complete digital wireless video transmission system comprising a VTX airborne transmitter and an RBox ground receiver. Operating across the wide 3–7 GHz band with 1080p60fps video, OSD Canvas mode support for Betaflight and INAV, and wireless pairing, it delivers a fully integrated digital video link from airborne camera to ground display.
5 MHz communication bandwidth across 3–7 GHz for 36 selectable channels and flexible frequency planning.
High-definition digital video output at 1080p60fps or 720p60fps for smooth, professional-quality footage.
VTX supports both visible-light (MIPI 2-lane / 4-lane) and infrared (MIPI 1-lane / DVP) camera inputs.
Supports Betaflight and INAV MSP OSD Canvas mode for real-time telemetry overlay on the video feed.
Simple one-button pairing process — green LEDs on both VTX and RBox confirm active link establishment.
Both VTX and RBox support TF cards up to 1 TB for local video recording alongside wireless transmission.
