Entering OSD configuration menu 

After the initial calibration is done, the main OSD overlay will show and the CORE PRO is ready to be 

configured. 

1. To enter the OSD configuration menu, hold the throttle stick down-left for 4 seconds (mode 2) 

 

2. A countdown will let you know that you are about to enter the OSD menu 

RC Calibration (mandatory)  

R/C Calibration is required to teach the TBS CORE PRO and the flight controller which stick performs which 

action on your remote control. RC Calibration comes up either automatically if you are running the CORE PRO 

for the first time, or it is available in the R/C menu under “Flight Controller” 

 “Calibration” 

 “RC Calibration 

Wizard” if you need to access it again.  

The default settings for RC calibration match the CleanFlight/BetaFlight settings. If your R/C matches these 

settings you may choose to skip the R/C calibration setup step. 

Calibrate new setup 

The CORE PRO is by default expecting an SBUS signal since this is the most commonly used protocol 

nowadays among FPV racers. If you are using any other receiver such as CROSSFIRE CRSF, Spektrum DSM 

satellite, or any PPM-compatible receiver, press the ENTER key of the CORE PRO to cycle through the available 

signal options.  

A restart of the flight controller is required so please allow it some time. At the same time for it to load, center 

all of your R/C sticks, and the RC Calibration Wizard will launch. Follow the instructions to assign the right RC 

channels. After these steps you will be able to control the OSD with your Roll- and Pitch-stick.
