Ⅰ. Overview
1. Product Features
G11 is Skydroid’s first flagship remote controller equipped with a Linux operating system. Ditching traditional open-source solutions, the G11 adopts in-depth customization and closed development based on the Linux kernel. It completely eliminates system redundancies, fundamentally avoiding software conflicts and crash risks, and delivers an ultra-stable, smooth, low-latency and secure industrial-grade control experience for users.s nec ullamcorper mattis, pulvinar dapibus leo.
Weighing only 480g, the unit features an ergonomic curved body that significantly reduces fatigue during prolonged holding. Built-in a high-capacity 10000mAh battery, it delivers an ultra-long runtime of 5 to 6 hours to fully guarantee uninterrupted operations. In terms of communication, it supports automatic switching between the 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz dual frequency bands, with a maximum control range of 20km, maintaining rock-solid signal performance even in complex electromagnetic environments.
It is fitted with a 4.5-inch 1920×1080 full HD screen that presents delicate and lifelike images, and supports real-time OSD overlay to display flight data and video transmission status at a glance. Equipped with 11 precisely arranged physical control channels with distinct tactile feedback, it enables blind operation without visual check.

①Cycle the receiver power four times quickly; it will automatically enter binding mode on the fourth power cycle with blue light flashing rapidly.
②Tap Settings ⚙–〉Wireless Settings –〉Frequency Binding –〉Start Frequency Binding, confirm the operation and wait for binding success prompt.
③Once binding is successful, the receiver’s blue light will stay solid on.
Notice: Maintain a distance of less than 50cm between the transmitter and receiver while performing frequency binding.
11. Video & Data Transmission Connection
Receiver 1: GR01
Wire according to the diagram above. Connect the SBUS & data transmission port of the receiver to the SBUS & data transmission port of the S3 flight controller, and connect the LAN port of the receiver to the LAN port of the gimbal camera. (Note: For device power supply and other wiring connections, please refer to the respective user manual.)
(1) Viedo & Image Ttansmission
Take Skydroid C10 Pro as an example: power on the camera and connect it to the LAN port of the receiver, then the video feed will be displayed.
If a third-party camera is used, its network segment must be set to the 144 segment (192.168.144.XXX). Tap Settings ⚙ to enter the settings page, select RTSP, tap Read Settings, enter the RTSP pull stream address of the camera, then save the settings. (Refer to Section 6 Video Settings in this manual.)
Note: The RTSP address of third-party cameras shall be provided by the manufacturer.
(2)Data Transmission
When data transmission cable and baud rate both set correctly, the flight controller data transmission will be automatically connected.
Note: If the connection fails, please check the following:
①Whether the serial port baud rate of the receiver matches the baud rate of the flight controller’s data transmission port (The baud rate of S3 flight controller is 921600).
②Whether the wiring definition of the data transmission is correct (RX connects to TX).
