Thank you I had my first successful maiden flight because of watching all your videos. Please continue making videos as we love them. I know it's a lot of work but you're so good at it. Thank you from Northern California Rob
PS, well done 👍 great information here. Waiting for the OSD video. Also next time you build a wing show us the hardware setup! Very important part of the build that sometimes trips us up. It would be nice to see the complete build and follow you on our own wing build. Thanks again!
Hi.. how to setup on inav if we want the plane fly at certain speed, example if the plane will fly with ground speed / air speed at 45 m/h constantly. thank you for your help
Not sure if disabling climb before RTH is a good choice, all my flying wings (running pixhawk and also inav) during rth 180 turn always initially drops few meters... in my favourite style, flying low.. its the worst idea ever to have this option disabled :)
First off all WOW what a sourse of information! thank you so much for all the tip and info.. I think Im about ready to trow my plane in the air but for a strange reason I dont get my servo forwarding to the S outputs working... I do got all the servos working needed for control serveses etc but not my forwarded servos fot the headtracker :( Ive got the F765 wing and checked all the mixer en output tutorials for Inav but nooooo.. Any ideas where I can continue my search for solutions? Im stuck Cheers! Ps. I can see my HT chanels move in the receiver tab so that's ok.
falsfe might be used to test if you correctly set your fail safe configuration RTH so you test it 100m away and see if it works as you behave isn't it ?
Hi Pawel. I hope you can help me. Im using a matek f411 wing. Everything is setup (thanks to your videos) however i am having issues with my RTH mode. All modes are working but RTH do not show on the system message on my OSD when I flick the RTH switch. Auto trim and auto tune shows on the system message when clicked. Another thing i notice is before arming the home arrow is showing but when I arm the airplane it is replaced by an underscore. What is the problem? Is it the gps module or something i missed setting up? Hope you can help. Thanks in advance!
Hey Pawel ive wired my r xsr to f405 wing like you have shown, i can bind radiomaster tx 16s to reciever, i setup inav 2.5 for sbus by following your instructions but i have no stick inputs in inav. Can you help? Thanks
I have expanded my Kopis 2 (Kakute F7) with an Beitian BN-880 GPS module. Inav Configurator 2.3.3, latest board firmware. GPS works. The only problem: the compass calibration does not work. No matter what setting (installation position) and whether with battery or only USB - nothing works. Do you know a solution for the problem?
I am having issues with the mode tab, I setup the switches like i wanted, but when i tried to activate pos hold, it didnt show that it was active in the config (the box didnt change colors) and RTH did the same thing, the switch was set up but I didnt get a color change to confirm that it was working.
Which ESCs can be used and which settings in iNAV have to be set for this? My ESC is not responding to the RC transmitter. The engine runs in the iNAV during the engine test. What can that be?
Hi Pawel, I am having some issues with the GPS modes. Angle and Alt Hold work ok, but when I switch to Loiter... My s800 (omnibus F4) starts a turn to the right makes roughly 180 degrees then straitens, sometimes it turns again to the right some times turns left... Has an erratic loiter patern. Sometimes makes a circle, sometimes make 8 in the sky. Also the RTH, starts ok, makes 180 turn, but then doesnt really come to Home.. is this a known issue? I've been fiddeling with settings but no success. Let me know if you have any ideas. thanks
Hello Pawel, is there a way to set the loiter direction when in RTH mode. I am running a betaflight f4 fc and every time I use RTH when it gets home it starts turning right and going behind me and over the no fly danger zone over people on my flying field. I am scared on a FS it may start descending and trying to land on the more dangerous part of the field where I fly.
Great video. Very helpful But I am facing some issues, Every time I try to update using windows 10 pc or flash arduplane firmware on Matek f405 wing FC, INAV fails and show the log "failed to open serial port" I have tried impulse RC driver fixer and zadig, still I unable to flash the arduplane firmware. Please suggest what could be done to solve this issue.
Hi. What does having a Red GPS symbol represent? I've looked but find no information. I've not seen it turn Blue, it remains RED and no information is being sent in the GPS tab.
I'm setting up my Dart250g for a re-maiden. Between the setup and configuration tab, should I adjust the board to be completely level as the wing flys level? Also should I add mechanical up trim, taking from experience the Dart likes to nose dive?
Hi Pawel great informative video again.. Are these settings that you have used for flying wings also applicable to conventional fixed wing model as well ??? For instance a Hobbyking Bixler or a Tundra ???
This Is exactly my problem. - I have exactly the same problem. When disarmed the home arrow is blinking, when arming it changes to a blinking line. I also noticed that I can’t enable RTH and launch. I have enough satellites.
Hi Pawel, another interesting and informative video, thank you. I have a couple question if you dont mind. Is the blue led blinking while acquiring satellites? You mentioned it takes up to 20 minutes to have a 3d fix, is that right? I have the Matek F405STD and Matek GPS with Magnetometer and, magnetometer works good GPS is connected and configured but doesnt acquire satellite ever.
Thanks for all your good tutorials, is there a way to calibrate air speed sensors in inav? I've connected an digital sensor to my matek 405 wing, and it's showing 250-400 m/s
Hi Pawel, I want to disable NAV LAUNCH on my Nano Talon but cannot find the option in MODES tab of the INAV version 2 configurator. I tried the CLI and can observe all the various settings for NAV LAUNCH but don’t know how to disable it. I have read NAV LAUNCH can be permanently Enabled so that means it can be disabled... but how? Please can you help me? Thanks.
petrovski1948 configurations tab, “permanently enable Nav Launch” unselect that. Once it is unselected you have the option in the modes tab to put it on a switch.
Hi Pawel, thanks again for another great video! why dont you recommend series 6-7 ublox gps? I have a ublo x neo 6 and works fine. And another thing...I had a crash recently (commented in your last video), when I flipped RTHafter losing vtx, but I was so near home that my wing entered "loitering around home" mode...but kept descending instead of climbing at rth altitude. I'm not sure why this happened, but resulted in a 80 kmh crash into a stone that my s800 couldn't survive. Any idea?
6 series is not much cheaper and can track much less satellites. 8 series is just much more superior. Since it started descending that probably means it started landing procedure. RTH at low altitude on an airplane is always a risk
@@FPVUniversity Thanks Pawel...the last signal I received just before the Crash showed "loitering around home" but while descending to zero altitude. This is what I dont understand since I disabled autoland and set rth altitude to 100 m...And rth was functioning well far from home
@@Manute951 I usually launch my plane LOS and fly out just a bit, then use RTL so I can sit down and get my goggles on while the plane loiters above. I have noticed that RTL respects and gains altitude but loiter sometimes loses altitude. I almost wrecked the plane several times cause of this. I have learned to get enough altitude before RTL or enough distance so that RTL can have enough time to climb before it reaches me. I don't really know if this is a bug or not. But if you took off and failsafe or RTL trigger close to you and your a little low altitude, I could see this happening.
Thanks @@MrCottonmouth , that was exactly what happened to me, I was near home (say 50m) and low (about 20 m); engaging RTL triggered loitering around home mode but as a descent spiral of death (with target altitude zero as it seems). I have the "inmediatley climb in RTH" command set to OFF but I don´t think it applies here. I was wondering now which would be the best panic mode when losing VTX near home...RTL or Loiter mode with altitude hold.
@@Manute951 As long as I'm that close to home I'd rather the plane find its way down to land, but the trees are very hungry. I use RTH a lot so I'm used to it behaving like that sometimes.
I would love for you guys to incorporate motor output limit into inav like betaflight has, so I can run 7 inch props on my 2200kv Motor I have on my flying wing or run 6S on my long range quad copter that has 4S motors but he’s capable of running 6S through the ESC same thing with my wing just an idea it would be great Incorporating little features like this is what would bring a inav to the next level
I gotta put this out here....it's lot of people on here that put out videos and ask for patreons from us and they dont respond back when you gsve a question or problem you need help with. Now, it's been said by a well known quadcopter, inav, betaflight guru that he likes to let his patreons to figure it out on their on but he doesn't realize that he is the last option because most of us want to figure it out on our on. So, I'm am not petreon no more for anyone.
Hi Pawel, i have inav 2.0 in many craft with Matek F405 wing, and Ublox M8n gps, all works perfect...exept one, i have a very strange issue with delayed data from GPS, the arrow home and speed are delayed about 4-5 seconds, so the RTH is non reliable. I try all, different baud speed port, ublox, ublox7 protocol ecc, different GPS that im sure is working..nothing! Only one thing i can see, if i connect the battery for the first time, so cold start, the OSD give me the message GPS FAILURE, after some seconds this message disappear, but gps data is delayed. If i disconnect and reconnect battery fast, this message don't appear and gps data is fast and good. Im go grazy
ailsafe_throttle_low_delay = 0 or else it will disarm the fixed wing in the air when Failsafe triggers and you have had low throttle for the default time period. This is what im refering to in inav, yes im using battery powerd flying wing
I followed your guides to setting up the newest stable firmware. I have watched tons of your videos and I had understood how to get my plane flying its best best it possibly could. Well I just flew my plane for the first time today and the plane shot straight up all I could see was sky so I reduced throttle from 50% to maybe 20%, the airplane nosed down and Nothing I did, changed its course and it exploded no more that 5 seconds after launch. I wasn't going to say anything, but I feel a duty to say something so more people don't get burnt by inav. I'm assuming this is was happend. So I took off In angle mode because I come from flying multirotors and angle mode is what i felt safest in. Inav was acting the same way as the stock stabilzer had if I rolled the plane one way the control surfaces would react correctly accordingly. So I had nothing to worry about, nothing that I watched from the many, many of your videos I had watched several times i have flown for the better part of two years and this is the first and last time using inav. I know I was mod I g my sticks and Nothing I did in those short seconds changed the way them p

Hi Mr. Pawel, i wanted to ask when i set the mode to Nav RTH, i see the AIR mode on the goggles when I switch to RTH. Is this normal? Thank you.
Rth will engage only when armed
And you are far enough from take off
My worst fear is motor shuting down during long range flight because of low throttle please explain which setting pervents this. Thanks for help
This is not really a problem as motor should start as soon as you raise the throttle. I assume that we talk about electric motors of course
Thanks heaps Paweł Can you show a link to the improvements from 1.9 to 2.0 firmware
