Questions
How big is the E28 tx PCB?
It measures 40.5 × 56 mm and has 2 copper layers, 0.8 mm thick.
What parts does the E28 tx use?
28 parts, built around the E28-2G4M27S, CH340C, ESP32-WROOM-32D and ME6211C33R5G. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the E28 tx KiCad files?
From the R4ynor/ExpressLRS_HW_stuff repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is e28_dual_tx/e28_tx.kicad_pcb and its schematic 20x20_sx1280/20x20_sx1280.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the E28 tx design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask R4ynor before reusing the design.
