HGLRC Zeus Nano 350mW 5.8GHz Analog FPV VTX
by HGLRC

The HGLRC Zeus Nano VTX 350mW 5.8GHz Analog Video Transmitter represents a masterclass in ultra-miniaturized radio-frequency engineering, packing high-performance signal broadcast capabilities into a sub-3-gram footprint. Designed to meet strict weight and spatial constraints, this versatile video transmitter features a unique modular "boomerang" shape with break-away side mounting tabs. This innovative architecture enables a single VTX to fit natively across multiple mounting patterns, including tiny 16x16mm, standard 20x20mm, and toothpick or whoop-style 25.5x25.5mm stacks, with tabs that can be easily snapped off with pliers for tight custom builds. Operating on a clean DC 5V input, the Zeus Nano delivers adjustable transmission power profiles ranging from Pit Mode up to a powerful 350mW across 40 standard channels spanning five frequency bands. Uniquely equipped for its minuscule 18.6x13.6x6mm size, it integrates an onboard microphone for real-time acoustic telemetry, a protective front-mounted metal shield for robust thermal dissipation and impact resistance, and full IRC Tramp smart audio protocol compatibility for remote frequency management via the flight controller OSD.

This high-density video broadcast platform delivers critical utility across recreational, enterprise, and defense industries. For the RC hobby and FPV drone racing markets, its featherweight 2.4g build is ideal for maximizing flight times and spatial layouts on micro long-range builds, whoops, and high-speed indoor racing quads. In high school STEM programs and university aerospace engineering labs, the module serves as a practical, low-cost instructional asset to analyze analog RF wave propagation, antenna efficiency, and smart telemetry control loops. For sUAS manufacturers and aerospace defense contractors, the strict SWaP (Size, Weight, and Power) compliance of the Zeus Nano makes it an outstanding, low-risk testbed for custom micro-UAV airframe prototyping and localized telemetry node integration. For government, military, and law enforcement applications, this zero-latency analog VTX acts as an essential, high-reliability component for close-range indoor scout drones, tactical disposable reconnaissance systems, and non-cellular surveillance configurations that require zero-lag situational awareness.
