Introduction 
The​ ​Tramp​ ​HV​ ​is​ ​a​ ​tiny,​ ​high​ ​power​ ​5.8GHz​ ​Audio/Video​ ​transmitter​ ​designed​ ​for​ ​FPV​ ​use,​ ​but​ ​with​ ​a 
focus​ ​on​ ​the​ ​Drone​ ​Racing​ ​market.  

Equipped​ ​with​ ​a​ ​dual​ ​user-interface,​ ​one​ ​a​ ​traditional​ ​button/LED,​ ​and​ ​another​ ​using​ ​near-field 
communications​ ​(Touch’N’Race)​ ​to​ ​configure​ ​the​ ​transmitter​ ​using​ ​a​ ​contact-free​ ​wand.  

The​ ​unique​ ​(and​ ​Patent-Pending)​ ​Touch’N’Race​ ​(TNR)​ ​feature​ ​was​ ​designed​ ​purely​ ​to​ ​enable​ ​race 
events​ ​with​ ​extremely​ ​low​ ​inter-heat​ ​times,​ ​and​ ​reduce​ ​dramatically​ ​the​ ​risk​ ​of​ ​accidental​ ​power-ups 
disrupting​ ​a​ ​race​ ​event.   

Touch’N’Race​ ​(TNR) 
When​ ​arriving​ ​at​ ​a​ ​race​ ​event​ ​using​ ​ImmersionRC​ ​TNR​ ​Technology,​ ​a​ ​pilot’s​ ​quad​ ​is​ ​placed​ ​in​ ​‘Race 
Mode’​ ​during​ ​pilot​ ​registration.​ ​This​ ​is​ ​achieved​ ​without​ ​powering​ ​up​ ​the​ ​quad,​ ​and​ ​without​ ​any 
physical​ ​connection,​ ​using​ ​a​ ​TNR​ ​Wand.  

When​ ​in​ ​Race​ ​Mode​ ​(identified​ ​by​ ​a​ ​blink​ ​code​ ​on​ ​the​ ​internal​ ​LED),​ ​the​ ​transmitter​ ​will​ ​not​ ​transmit 
unless​ ​requested​ ​by​ ​the​ ​race​ ​director’s​ ​TNR​ ​Wand.​ ​ ​This​ ​typically​ ​happens​ ​during​ ​preparation​ ​for​ ​a 
race,​ ​while​ ​the​ ​previous​ ​heat​ ​is​ ​running.  

Quads​ ​are​ ​‘wanded’​ ​safely​ ​while​ ​their​ ​batteries​ ​are​ ​disconnected,​ ​and​ ​assigned​ ​their​ ​race​ ​band, 
channel,​ ​and​ ​transmitter​ ​power​ ​level.​ ​When​ ​powered​ ​up,​ ​the​ ​quads​ ​will​ ​transmit​ ​on​ ​this​ ​assigned 
channel​ ​until​ ​the​ ​battery​ ​is​ ​disconnected,​ ​at​ ​which​ ​point​ ​they​ ​will​ ​return​ ​to​ ​the​ ​race-director​ ​assigned 
mode.  

A​ ​race​ ​organizer​ ​may​ ​choose​ ​to​ ​allow​ ​quads​ ​which​ ​are​ ​not​ ​racing​ ​to​ ​transmit​ ​a​ ​very​ ​low​ ​power​ ​level 
on​ ​a​ ​‘Pit​ ​Frequency’​ ​to​ ​allow​ ​quads​ ​to​ ​be​ ​setup,​ ​and​ ​debugged,​ ​without​ ​interrupting​ ​a​ ​race.​ ​This​ ​pit 
frequency​ ​is​ ​defined​ ​by​ ​the​ ​race​ ​organizer​ ​to​ ​comply​ ​with​ ​local​ ​regulations.  

This​ ​Pit​ ​Mode​ ​also​ ​allows​ ​quads​ ​powered​ ​up​ ​for​ ​equipment​ ​inspection​ ​to​ ​transmit​ ​an​ ​image.  

Note​ ​that​ ​when​ ​leaving​ ​a​ ​race​ ​event,​ ​be​ ​sure​ ​to​ ​‘De-Wand’​ ​to​ ​place​ ​the​ ​transmitter​ ​back​ ​in​ ​normal 
operating​ ​mode.​ ​If​ ​you​ ​leave​ ​an​ ​event​ ​without​ ​De-Wanding,​ ​check​ ​the​ ​‘Emergency​ ​Unlock’ 
procedure​ ​later​ ​in​ ​this​ ​document.  

   

       

 
 

Best​ ​Practices 
Connectors​ ​and​ ​Cables 
The​ ​trend​ ​to​ ​miniaturize​ ​FPV​ ​video​ ​transmitters,​ ​and​ ​dramatically​ ​decrease​ ​weight​ ​requires​ ​the​ ​use 
of​ ​smaller,​ ​and​ ​therefore​ ​more​ ​fragile​ ​connectors​ ​than​ ​used​ ​on​ ​‘legacy’​ ​transmitters.  

When​ ​mounting​ ​the​ ​transmitter,​ ​ensure​ ​that​ ​these​ ​connectors​ ​(especially​ ​the​ ​tiny​ ​U.FL​ ​antenna 
connector)​ ​is​ ​not​ ​being​ ​pulled,​ ​or​ ​can​ ​be​ ​pulled​ ​in​ ​a​ ​crash.​ ​If​ ​the​ ​U.FL​ ​to​ ​Bulkhead​ ​SMA​ ​cable​ ​gets 
damaged​ ​it​ ​may​ ​be​ ​replaced​ ​easily.  

The​ ​transmitter​ ​may​ ​safely​ ​be​ ​stuck​ ​to​ ​the​ ​inside​ ​of​ ​a​ ​carbon​ ​fibre​ ​frame​ ​using​ ​double-sided​ ​foam 
tape.  

Try​ ​to​ ​avoid​ ​sharp​ ​bends​ ​in​ ​the​ ​tiny​ ​RF​ ​cable,​ ​which​ ​will​ ​reduce​ ​power​ ​output​ ​levels.  

Powering​ ​the​ ​Tramp 


DO​ ​NOT​ ​power​ ​the​ ​tramp​ ​from​ ​a​ ​12V​ ​regulator​ ​on​ ​a​ ​4s​ ​powered​ ​quad,​ ​such​ ​as​ ​a​ ​Polulu.  

The​ ​Tramp​ ​is​ ​designed​ ​to​ ​run​ ​directly​ ​from​ ​the​ ​LiPo​,​ ​and​ ​includes​ ​an​ ​advanced​ ​switching​ ​regulator, 
and​ ​plenty​ ​of​ ​filtration​ ​to​ ​clean​ ​up​ ​the​ ​noise​ ​from​ ​the​ ​ESCs.  

Powering​ ​from​ ​a​ ​+5V​ ​supply​ ​is​ ​possible,​ ​but​ ​only​ ​recommended​ ​if​ ​the​ ​regulated​ ​supply​ ​is​ ​very​ ​‘clean’, 
and​ ​can​ ​supply​ ​up​ ​to​ ​1​ ​Amp​ ​of​ ​current.  

Airflow 
Even​ ​though​ ​the​ ​Tramp​ ​is​ ​equipped​ ​with​ ​a​ ​thermal​ ​protection​ ​system,​ ​it​ ​is​ ​recommended​ ​to​ ​ensure​ ​a 
good​ ​amount​ ​of​ ​airflow​ ​around​ ​it.​ ​Encasing​ ​the​ ​Tramp​ ​(or​ ​any​ ​other​ ​high-power​ ​electronic​ ​device)​ ​in 
foam​ ​(or​ ​similar)​ ​with​ ​no​ ​airflow​ ​is​ ​not​ ​recommended,​ ​and​ ​may​ ​result​ ​in​ ​premature​ ​failure. 

The​ ​Tramp​ ​HV​ ​will​ ​intelligently​ ​reduce​ ​output​ ​power​ ​levels​ ​if​ ​the​ ​board​ ​temperature​ ​heats​ ​beyond 
preset​ ​limits.  

Several​ ​steps​ ​are​ ​used,​ ​starting​ ​with​ ​the​ ​least​ ​aggressive​ ​(25%​ ​reduction​ ​in​ ​output​ ​power),​ ​until​ ​the 
board​ ​temperature​ ​is​ ​safe,​ ​and​ ​sustainable.  

Ground​ ​Loops 
If​ ​using​ ​the​ ​internal​ ​+5V​ ​regulator​ ​to​ ​power​ ​a​ ​camera,​ ​run​ ​the​ ​second​ ​ground​ ​wire​ ​from​ ​the​ ​supplied 
harness,​ ​along​ ​with​ ​the​ ​+5V​ ​output,​ ​ ​directly​ ​to​ ​the​ ​camera.​ ​This​ ​ensures​ ​that​ ​the​ ​clean​ ​switching 
regulator​ ​on​ ​the​ ​Tramp​ ​can​ ​feed​ ​the​ ​camera​ ​without​ ​noisy​ ​‘ground​ ​currents’​ ​creating​ ​noise​ ​on​ ​the 
image.  

TNR​ ​Board 
The​ ​TNR​ ​board​ ​must​ ​be​ ​placed​ ​on​ ​your​ ​quad​ ​so​ ​that​ ​it​ ​is​ ​accessible​ ​by​ ​the​ ​race​ ​marshal.​ ​If​ ​you​ ​have​ ​a 
flat​ ​carbon​ ​fibre​ ​top​ ​plate​ ​(which​ ​is​ ​the​ ​case​ ​for​ ​99%​ ​of​ ​the​ ​quads​ ​out​ ​there),​ ​you​ ​may​ ​stick​ ​it​ ​to​ ​that 

       

 
 

plate​ ​with​ ​some​ ​double-sided​ ​tape.​ ​Use​ ​the​ ​thicker​ ​~1mm​ ​thick​ ​foam​ ​tape​ ​instead​ ​of​ ​the​ ​very​ ​thin 
‘carpet​ ​tape’​ ​to​ ​ensure​ ​that​ ​the​ ​close​ ​proximity​ ​of​ ​the​ ​frame​ ​doesn’t​ ​affect​ ​the​ ​TNR​ ​range.  

 
 
NOTE:​ ​For​ ​the​ ​tramp​ ​version​ ​used​ ​for​ ​events​ ​in​ ​July/Aug​ ​2016,​ ​please​ ​connect​ ​the​ ​TNR​ ​board​ ​to​ ​the​ ​Tramp 
and​ ​power​ ​it​ ​up​ ​at​ ​least​ ​once​ ​before​ ​arriving​ ​at​ ​race​ ​events.​ ​The​ ​first​ ​customer​ ​release​ ​will​ ​not​ ​require​ ​this.  

Antenna​ ​Compatibility 
The​ ​pigtail​ ​supplied​ ​with​ ​the​ ​Tramp​ ​sports​ ​a​ ​standard​ ​SMA​ ​connector,​ ​NOT​ ​a​ ​RP-SMA​ ​which​ ​is​ ​used 
by​ ​some​ ​other​ ​manufacturers.  

If​ ​a​ ​RP-SMA​ ​connector​ ​is​ ​screwed​ ​onto​ ​a​ ​standard​ ​SMA,​ ​it​ ​will​ ​appear​ ​to​ ​be​ ​connected,​ ​but​ ​will 
actually​ ​be​ ​open-circuit,​ ​potentially​ ​damaging​ ​the​ ​Tx.  

Ensure​ ​that​ ​one​ ​of​ ​the​ ​connectors​ ​has​ ​a​ ​pin,​ ​and​ ​the​ ​other​ ​has​ ​a​ ​hole​ ​to​ ​receive​ ​the​ ​pin.​ ​If​ ​both​ ​have​ ​a 
hole​ ​(or​ ​both​ ​have​ ​a​ ​pin)​ ​then​ ​they​ ​are​ ​not​ ​compatible.  

User​ ​Interface 
Button/LED 
Startup​ ​LED​ ​Behavior 
The​ ​LED​ ​indicates​ ​the​ ​state​ ​of​ ​the​ ​transmitter​ ​shortly​ ​after​ ​powerup.  

Steady​ ​On​ ​means​ ​that​ ​the​ ​transmitter​ ​is​ ​currently​ ​transmitting​ ​in​ ​‘Normal​ ​Mode’,​ ​and​ ​will​ ​behave 
much​ ​like​ ​any​ ​other​ ​FPV​ ​Transmitter.  

A​ ​short​ ​blink​ ​sequence​ ​(.​ ​.​ ​.​ ​)​ ​means​ ​that​ ​the​ ​transmitter​ ​is​ ​in​ ​Race​ ​Mode,​ ​and​ ​is​ ​either​ ​not 
transmitting,​ ​or​ ​transmitting​ ​low-power​ ​on​ ​a​ ​pre-configured​ ​Pit​ ​Frequency.  

A​ ​long​ ​blink​ ​sequence​ ​(-​ ​-​ ​-)​ ​means​ ​that​ ​the​ ​transmitter​ ​is​ ​in​ ​Race​ ​Mode,​ ​and​ ​is​ ​currently​ ​transmitting 
on​ ​its​ ​assigned​ ​Race​ ​Frequency.  

       

 
 

 
Setting​ ​Channel/Band/Power​ ​using​ ​the​ ​button 
First,​ ​a​ ​disclaimer,​ ​this​ ​transmitter​ ​was​ ​not​ ​designed​ ​to​ ​use​ ​the​ ​button​ ​as​ ​the​ ​primary​ ​user-interface. 
The​ ​TNR​ ​Wand​ ​is​ ​by​ ​far​ ​the​ ​easiest​ ​way​ ​to​ ​configure​ ​the​ ​transmitter,​ ​and​ ​provides​ ​both​ ​feedback​ ​of 
which​ ​channel​ ​a​ ​transmitter​ ​is​ ​on​ ​before​ ​it​ ​is​ ​powered​ ​up,​ ​and​ ​define​ ​the​ ​current​ ​band/channel,​ ​and 
power​ ​level.  

Three​ ​‘Menu​ ​Options’​ ​are​ ​available​ ​using​ ​the​ ​button​ ​and​ ​LED,​ ​shown​ ​in​ ​the​ ​flowchart​ ​below. 

NOTE:​ ​When​ ​in​ ​Race​ ​Mode,​ ​under​ ​the​ ​control​ ​of​ ​the​ ​race​ ​director,​ ​the​ ​button​ ​will​ ​have​ ​no​ ​effect,​ ​other 
than​ ​the​ ​unlock​ ​procedure​ ​below.  

Emergency​ ​Unlock​ ​procedure​ ​(leaving​ ​Race​ ​Mode​ ​after​ ​an​ ​event) 


If​ ​the​ ​Tramp​ ​was​ ​not​ ​removed​ ​from​ ​Race​ ​Mode​ ​after​ ​an​ ​event,​ ​a​ ​simple​ ​procedure​ ​may​ ​be​ ​followed 
to​ ​manually​ ​unlock​ ​it.  

Press​ ​the​ ​button​ ​on​ ​the​ ​side​ ​of​ ​the​ ​tramp​ ​before​ ​applying​ ​power,​ ​apply​ ​power,​ ​and​ ​hold​ ​the​ ​button 
for​ ​30​ ​seconds​ ​until​ ​the​ ​LED​ ​is​ ​lit.  

(Yes,​ ​we​ ​know​ ​this​ ​is​ ​tedious,​ ​but​ ​it​ ​is​ ​this​ ​way​ ​to​ ​reduce​ ​the​ ​probability​ ​of​ ​accidentally​ ​leaving​ ​race​ ​mode​ ​at 
an​ ​event)

Bands,​ ​Channels,​ ​and​ ​Frequencies 


Depending​ ​upon​ ​the​ ​Tramp​ ​variant​ ​purchased,​ ​the​ ​power​ ​output​ ​level,​ ​and​ ​available​ ​transmit 
frequencies​ ​can​ ​vary.  

It​ ​is​ ​highly​ ​recommended​ ​to​ ​understand​ ​the​ ​rules​ ​and​ ​regulations​ ​in​ ​your​ ​country​ ​before​ ​using​ ​the 
Tramp.​ ​Transmitting​ ​outside​ ​a​ ​legal​ ​band​ ​is​ ​something​ ​frowned​ ​upon​ ​by​ ​the​ ​authorities,​ ​and​ ​may 
result​ ​in​ ​a​ ​fine,​ ​or​ ​confiscation​ ​of​ ​equipment.  

For​ ​the​ ​EU​ ​version​ ​of​ ​the​ ​Tramp,​ ​the​ ​following​ ​frequencies​ ​are​ ​available​ ​(highlighted​ ​in​ ​green).

Thermal​ ​Regulation 
This​ ​is​ ​an​ ​area​ ​where​ ​the​ ​Tramp​ ​differs​ ​from​ ​most​ ​5.8GHz​ ​video​ ​transmitters​ ​on​ ​the​ ​market.  
Transmitters​ ​of​ ​this​ ​size​ ​and​ ​weight​ ​class,​ ​which​ ​shed​ ​the​ ​traditional​ ​heat-sinks​ ​used​ ​to​ ​keep 
electronics​ ​cool,​ ​need​ ​to​ ​protect​ ​themselves​ ​against​ ​overheating​ ​by​ ​being​ ​a​ ​little​ ​smarter.  

The​ ​Tramp​ ​HV​ ​continuously​ ​monitors​ ​the​ ​internal​ ​temperature,​ ​and​ ​regulates​ ​the​ ​power​ ​output​ ​in 
several​ ​steps​ ​until​ ​the​ ​temperature​ ​is​ ​within​ ​safe​ ​limits.  

This​ ​practice​ ​ensures​ ​that​ ​the​ ​components​ ​used​ ​in​ ​the​ ​transmitter​ ​are​ ​not​ ​used​ ​outside​ ​of​ ​their 
maximum​ ​operating​ ​conditions,​ ​and​ ​will​ ​eliminate​ ​premature​ ​failures.  

When​ ​in​ ​a​ ​reduced​ ​power​ ​output​ ​mode,​ ​as​ ​soon​ ​as​ ​airflow​ ​is​ ​present,​ ​the​ ​transmitter​ ​will​ ​quickly 
increase​ ​power​ ​output​ ​to​ ​requested​ ​levels.  

When​ ​is​ ​this​ ​useful?​ ​Imagine​ ​a​ ​quad​ ​sat​ ​on​ ​the​ ​starting​ ​grid​ ​of​ ​a​ ​race​ ​for​ ​several​ ​minutes,​ ​as​ ​other 
pilots​ ​get​ ​ready,​ ​props​ ​stationary.  
The​ ​Tramp​ ​HV​ ​will​ ​lower​ ​its​ ​power​ ​output​ ​until​ ​a​ ​safe​ ​level​ ​is​ ​reached.​ ​As​ ​soon​ ​as​ ​the​ ​quad​ ​takes​ ​off, 
 

       

 
 

the​ ​airflow​ ​from​ ​the​ ​props​ ​will​ ​quickly​ ​cool​ ​the​ ​transmitter,​ ​and​ ​increase​ ​power​ ​output​ ​before​ ​the 
quad​ ​reaches​ ​a​ ​distance​ ​from​ ​the​ ​pilot​ ​where​ ​full​ ​power​ ​is​ ​required.  

Note​ ​that​ ​as​ ​with​ ​any​ ​video​ ​transmitter,​ ​ensure​ ​that​ ​adequate​ ​airflow​ ​is​ ​available​ ​when​ ​a​ ​model 
(whether​ ​it​ ​be​ ​a​ ​wing,​ ​or​ ​a​ ​quad)​ ​is​ ​in​ ​normal​ ​flight.  

   

       

 
 

Troubleshooting 
On​ ​startup,​ ​2x​ ​blinks 
TNR​ ​Device​ ​detected,​ ​but​ ​data​ ​appears​ ​corrupted.  

On​ ​startup,​ ​3x​ ​blinks 


No​ ​TNR​ ​Device​ ​connected/detected​ ​(informational​ ​code,​ ​Tramp​ ​will​ ​run​ ​happily​ ​without​ ​this 
connected) 

On​ ​startup,​ ​10x​ ​blinks 


TNR​ ​Device​ ​detected,​ ​but​ ​cannot​ ​write​ ​to​ ​it. 

LED​ ​does​ ​not​ ​light​ ​at​ ​power-up 


This​ ​is​ ​almost​ ​definitely​ ​due​ ​to​ ​a​ ​supply​ ​voltage​ ​problem,​ ​check​ ​all​ ​cabling​ ​to​ ​the​ ​Tramp.

Revision​ ​History 
V1.21 
- Initial​ ​revision​ ​used​ ​at​ ​the​ ​Swiss,​ ​and​ ​NYC​ ​Nationals 

V1.22 
- Change​ ​in​ ​behavior​ ​when​ ​detecting​ ​an​ ​uninitialized​ ​TNR​ ​board​ ​at​ ​boot.​ ​Race​ ​mode​ ​request 
using​ ​the​ ​wand​ ​will​ ​always​ ​be​ ​respected​ ​on​ ​first​ ​power-up​ ​at​ ​an​ ​event.  
 
- Change​ ​in​ ​button​ ​behaviour,​ ​a​ ​device​ ​in​ ​Race​ ​Mode,​ ​wanded​ ​and​ ​ready​ ​to​ ​fly,​ ​will​ ​ignore​ ​the 
button,​ ​even​ ​for​ ​emergency​ ​unlock​ ​requests.​ ​This​ ​only​ ​affects​ ​cases​ ​where​ ​the​ ​Tramp​ ​was 
installed​ ​with​ ​the​ ​button​ ​pressed​ ​before​ ​powerup,​ ​and​ ​for​ ​30s​ ​after​ ​powerup.  
 
- Thermal​ ​protection​ ​behaviour​ ​modified​ ​to​ ​handle​ ​extreme​ ​lack​ ​of​ ​airflow,​ ​and​ ​high​ ​power 
levels,​ ​cases​ ​not​ ​normally​ ​seen​ ​in​ ​general​ ​use.
