I'm afraid the current software doesn't support elrs V3 or even V2. It would be possible to bring it up to date, but it's a fair bit of work and I can't give any estimate of if/when it will get done.

What would be involved to update this project to V3 Express LRS? I have some experience designing and fabricating boards using KiCad. I have also fabricated and programmed these boards using small cnc mill. I also have programmed these boards using the processing and MicroPython programming languages. Would these skill sets be enough to update and resurrect the ELRS Handset project?

Hi @meistertek The main work to be done is to add support for the over-the-air format in V3 and then lots of testing. So the primary skill set needed initially is C/C++.

Thanks @JBKingdon , I'll work on building a handset and while doing that I'll take a look at the existing C/C++ code. I'll then look at the V3 over-the-air format code to see if I'd be able to figure out how to add it to the existing handset. And then be ready for lots of testing!
