Matek mR900-22 mLRS (MAVLink long range system) firmware 22dBm RF power 900MHz Receiver
MATEKSYS mLRS 900MHz series are NOT compatible with ELRS 900MHz & Frsky R9 series using the SX127x. They will not bind with each other.
LoRa chip SX126x(e.g. mR900-30, E22) and STM32WLE5xx(e.g. mR900-22, WIO-E5, E77) are compatible with each other.
Experience unparalleled long-range connectivity with the Matek mR900-30 MAVLink long range system.
Equipped with MAVLink firmware and a 900 MHz LoRa band, the Matek mR900-22 receiver boasts 20 dBm RF power for optimal transmission strength. Stay connected with confidence and clarity.

————————————————————————————————————
Connect the mR900-22 to USB-TTL module (e.g.CP210x, FTDI)
- mR900-22 RX2 — USB-TTL module TX
- mR900-22 TX2 — USB-TTL module RX
- mR900-22 V — USB-TTL module 5V
- mR900-22 G — USB-TTL module GND
Connect USB-TTL module to computer while holding the receiver boot button in.
- Select UART
- Select the COM port of USB-TTL module
- Connect
- select “Erasing & Programming”
- Tick all sectors and click “erase selected sectors”
- Browse firmware (hex or bin file) related to the hardware.
- Click “Start Programming”
- After programming, unplug USB and plug USB back in. If red LED blinks at 2Hz, the receiver is waiting for connecting with transmitter.
