Introduces the Lite transmitter: the same TankSync experience without the LoRa module, using the ESP32-C3's built-in radio for same-building range.

What's new

  • ESP-NOW "Lite" transport variant via a build-time transport_iface (-DTRANSPORT=lora|espnow). One source tree, two binaries — no module on the Lite board.
  • Full parity with LoRa. Lite keeps auto-pair, config push, remote OTA, and an identical tx_data_t, so the dashboard / Home Assistant / PWA see no difference beyond range.
  • Pairs to the universal hub (rx-v3.0.0+); the hub auto-detects transport at pair time.

Downloads

  • tanksync-transmitter-tx-v3.0.0.bin — Transmitter, LoRa (RYLR998 module)
  • tanksync-transmitter-lite-tx-v3.0.0.bin — Transmitter, Lite / ESP-NOW (built-in radio, no module)

Verified on hardware

  • ESP-NOW transmitter validated end-to-end against ESP32 DevKit and ESP32-S3 hubs; mixed fleet confirmed.

Requires

  • A hub on rx-v3.0.0 or newer for ESP-NOW pairing.

Who should install

  • LoRa users: optional. New Lite SKU: flash the -lite binary.
