Review: JHEMCU GHF411AIO 30A toothpick FC
JHEMCU GHF411AIO is the most affordable toothpick flight controller. JHEMCU company was established back in the 2012. They started by producing the F3 boards and some parts for F450 and DJI quadcopters. From 2016 they started their own brand JHEMCU. GHF411AIO flight controllers with integrated 20A and 30A 4in1 ESC’s quickly gained the popularity and were listed on the many RC websites. This board is pretty durable and the price is affordable.

GHF411AIO
The board has horizontally mounted USB socket as in all modern toothpick style boards. There are solder pads for the motor plugs, but the board comes with sockets not soldered by default. That’s good news for those who prefer to solder the motor wires instead of using the motor plugs. However the soldering pads are a little bit too small for thicker motor wires.
The back side of the board. Only the battery lead pads and the motor wires pads can be soldered to on the bottom side.
The weight of the GHF411AIO board is 7.5 grams.
The design of the JHEMCU GHF411AIO reminds the BetaFPV AIO 20A board. Probably the JHEMCU was inspired by the BetaFPV AIO board.

GHF411AIO Pro
There is already an updated version of this board GHF411AIO Pro available now. The power rating was increased from 20A to 25A and from 30A to 35A also maximum battery cells was increased from 4S to 6S. New board has bigger motor wires solder pads, 8Mb blackbox was added, dual bec 9V/5V and better pad layout So I would recommend to get the new Pro version.

Is there a way to determine which model/version you have installed in your quad ?
You can find out the 20A and 30A versions by checking the MOSFET chips. MOSFETs with 2R203 markings are 30A continuous current.
Hello,
I have the 30A version but I burned 2 sbus transmitters despite having perfectly followed the diagram for the soldering; they turned on and after a while they no longer work and the led no longer lights up. Did I do something wrong?
Thank you
You should check the voltages on the solder pads (+5, GND) you are trying connect to. Use multimeter. Maybe there is something wrong with the voltages.
ok, i will try with the tester.
Thank you
Hi Monti, I tried with the multimeter: between the GND and 4.5V pads the voltage is 4.74V.
I noticed that if I measure between 4.5v and SBUS pads the voltage is 4.22V.
it’s normal?
Thanks in advance.
The voltages between GND and 4.5V pads are ok. SBUS pad voltages should be between ~ 0.3V and 3.3V relative to the GND. Looks like ok to me. +- 10% is OK. Maybe the issue is somewhere else.
Hi! Montis can i use ppm receiver in this board?
Hi, there is an updated version of this board GHF411AIO Pro. According to the Betaflight target JHEF411, PPM input is available on TX2 pad.
resource PPM 1 A02
resource PWM 1 B01
resource PWM 2 A03
resource LED_STRIP 1 A15
resource SERIAL_TX 1 B06
resource SERIAL_TX 2 A02
resource SERIAL_RX 1 B07
resource SERIAL_RX 2 A03
But will it actually work – that’s a question.
Can anyone give me their default betaflight configuration file on their Betaflight JHEF411 , I lost it
I have the first gen GHF411AIO board (not Pro) and it has MatekF411 firmware by default. Do you have Pro or older version?
