    Been running iNav for a year on a couple quads, following its development as it has grown. Thank you for doing this series on it. There is very little on YT to help the beginner getting started.

      @Painless360  7 років тому

      Thanks for the comment, that's exactly why we've created the series. When I was looking for help to get going all I could find was bl00dy videos of quads hovering autonomously or the FPV view of a RTH flight. Not helpful at all to get it all working.. I hope this series helps others get it working well. Let me know what you think!

    I have been flying a 250 with inav loaded to spf3 with gps since november and I am happy with it. I have been feeling alianeted not knowing many using inav but felt much better once I saw you starting a seriese about it.
    You made me feel that I had actually been on the right track... Thanks for your effort...

    I watched your series on the CC3D Rev with LibrePilot a while back and built my first real quad based on that, since then I have played around with flying the quad with my computer joystick, having FPV feed directly to the PFD etc and gotten kind of attached to LibrePilot. Have you looked at/will you look at the possibility of GPS flight with LibrePilot? I think I read that thy now support external magnetometer.
    Thanks for all your awsome videos!

      +Christoffer Hallin I'm not thinking about doing that at the moment, iNav is taking most of the time. The Librepilot project was moving very slowly so I started to lose a little confidence. Maybe if they speed up releases and development cycles I'll get back into making videos for it. Happy flying

    Dear @Painless360, I used APM before and added GPS to an F3 AIO to have the GPS coordinates on the OSD to be recorder if copter lost using BetaFlight. What I experienced is that the GPS coordinates disappear for 2and half minutes and appear again. I checked the minimOSD soruce codes and did not find why was it disappearing many times... could is be a GPS module issue? I have my Ublox (Beitian) GPS module from my APM copter at 38400 baud. I received now a 10DOF F3 FC and I plan to move that GPS unit to that board and install iNav that's why I came here, but not sure f the GPS will be offline for a while or not or is it safe to use if it was not constantly displayed in betaflight too... how could I check can I log it for example with iNav to blackbox?

I am working on my first build, still deciding on the flight controller and software. I am planning to use an S500 frame for some aerial video and scientific research (drop tests of a CanSat about 500 grams in weight). As this is my first build and I need a reliable GPS autopilot. Would you recommend to go with INAV and an F4 or with ArduCopter and a Pixhawk? Thanks in advance for your attention and any comments you can provide.

Today I couldn't figure out what happened to my RTH and Loiter instead of it working properly nothing happened. I tried to get back into INAV and as soon as I plug in the USB cable and hit connect it go's straight into the CLI and then the only thing I can do is look at the help line and I don't know what I'm to do.

    I'm thinking about how to setup all the ports, I'm on SPF3 deluxe, so I have 3 UARTS + softserial. Currently I use:
    1. UART1 free because of USB connection
    2. UART2 MSP -> MWOSD
    3. UART3 -> IBUS receiver
    4. SOFTSERIAL1 -> UBLOX GPS
    I want to add bluetooth to that mix, how would you proceed? Maybe connect BT to UART1? I wont use BT and USB in the same time, right? Or maybe move GPS to UART1, and connect BT on SOFTSERIAL? A pity SPF3 doesn't have more ports, SOFTSERIAL seem to use a lot of resources... Can it be avoided?

    • @Painless360

    @juergenstremmler2286 7 років тому +1

    I am following and using iNav since its beginning and have 6 copters and one plane utilizing it. It is working great now but one should use it only with F3 or F4 FC's. Main deficiency against e.g dronin software in the moment is still, that you cant store waypoints for autonomous flying in non volatile memory of your F4 FC with EZ-GUI. So each time after powering up your copter you first have to upload your (hopefully stored) waypoints on your cell phone or on your tablet computer to the FC, then wait for GPS to receive 7 satellites (not really a problem) and then start flying your autonomous flight. If this deficiency against dronin will be removed then iNav will be more than a great firmware for FC's. Btw. two of my copters running with iNav are racing copters. PID algorithms in iNav when comparing them to betaflight are not so bad and if something happens when flying freestyle you can hit a switch and your racing drone comes back safely....

    • @happyfalangme
      @happyfalangme 7 років тому

      so what is better INAV or Dronin? does this give proper and correct Return to Home? I'm using the CC3d revolution Mini.

    • @juergenstremmler2286
      @juergenstremmler2286 7 років тому

      RTH accuracy is within 0 - 4 ft. I hope this is accurate enough for you... It is not the question whether dronin is better than iNav or not. Both of them have their merits and deficits and the teams are working on deficits. I just mentioned one deficit of iNav above which when removed will personally stop me using dronin any longer. Btw I own a Sparky2 with a 433 MHz Oplink (so no RX in the copter anymore!) and it is a pain in the a... to change the bootloader from dronin to iNav for this FC.

    • @KonstantinSharlaimov
      @KonstantinSharlaimov 7 років тому +1

      Storing waypoints in NVM memory is coming. Slower than you might want, but we'll get there!

    • @juergenstremmler2286
      @juergenstremmler2286 7 років тому

      Great!!! And to be fair, here is a bug in dronin: If you want to upload your waypoints to NVM in dronin from the waypoint editor via a 433MHz Oplink module to your copter that doesn't work! For uploading waypoints from the editor you once have to plug in a USB cable in your FC, but then waypoints are permanently stored in the FC. So you can do that at home and then take your copter to the area where you are going to fly.

    PROBLEM
    Hi painless. I have just came close to completed my first build but one problem keeps beating me back. I have a problem with the ESC'/motors. I can move my throttle up to a certain level say 1250; the problem is motors one and four decrease in speed (I'm not sure if that's the right term) until it reaches 1150 then it doesn't move and two and three keep speeding up. this is only when I move the throttle once and keep it in one position. I don't know what to do. I have watched your troubleshooting videos before and this problem hasn't come up. the result of this is that the drone flips on take off or flips straight after. I'm really gutted about this because its my first build.
    here is some of my specs:
    multistar elite 2204-2300kv
    fvt littlebee 20a esc
    3s 2200 mAh 75C battery
    Racing F3 EVO Flight Controller
    maktec pdb
    Flysky fs-i6 with 2.4ghz 6 channel receiver FS-iA6B
    210 frame
    If you could suggest any ideas to help that would make my day. I've already calibrated the ESC's on Blheli. the only strange thing is in cleanflight my max value is 1850 and min 1150. thanks for your help. it would be very kindly appreciated.

Is there anything else I can do? because everything else seems OK apart from this problem. Your the only real help I've got because even my teachers at school haven't got a scooby.

    • @okigottopee3154
      @okigottopee3154 7 років тому

      Hi again painless360. Still no luck. I'm running out of props to break trying to fix the problem. I can't get it off the ground. I've still got the problem off two motors spinning practically in sync and climbing in throttle. I've found that the two motors that decrease from any given value back to 1150 are the two motors I've physically reversed to get them to spin in the right direction. I really do need your help because I've been at this since December and I'm starting to lose faith in myself in thinking I can do this. I've calibrated my escs again, props right way, motors right directions, layout correct, wired up correctly. I'm thinking it could be a fault with the escs or fault in the settings on the flight controller. If you need videos of it all working or pictures I could show you for to help solve the problem.
      I really would like your opinion and help on this. I'm studying for prelims and this should be something to take my mind off things but at times really struggling with it all.

    Love your videos painless! I really want to make a micro brushless with full autonomous capabilities. I've done a 210 with mini apm and it is cool. I just got a falcon 120 with the F3 and was thinking I could add a gps and flash iNav and be off to the races. I haven't seen anything quite like it. Do you have any pointers you could give me? Thanks a lot!

  • @julesgilson.
    @julesgilson. 7 років тому

    This is exciting. I have built a number of mini quads but now wish to build my original intention a bigger quad that can carry a reasonable sized camera for aerial photography. How would this iNav stack up against PixHawk for such purposes. Don't suppose you can be tempted into a bigger build, so many mini/race quad build videos but not much on larger/heavier quads with full stability features - that would be great!!!

    • @Painless360
      @Painless360  7 років тому

      The same principles apply to larger models. PixHawk has had years of development in Arducopter and has one of the best mission planning implementations of any open source platform available today and is perfect fro a large camera ship. iNav is catching up quickly though..

    • @julesgilson.
      @julesgilson. 7 років тому

      The issue I am having with building a larger quad is more on information on parts that are available. With a mini quad you can quite easily find a selection of motors, for example, that are popualr and well regarded to make a purchase decision from. For larger motors there is a lot less info readily available. Same is true for frames, ESC etc etc.

    • @Painless360
      @Painless360  7 років тому

      We never fly the larger models now. Back when we built them it was a lot more 'trial and error' using plane motors with enough torque and 10" props! Last I played with was 2212/935KV motors with 10x5" props - DJI used something similar in their older models.

    • @feakesp
      @feakesp 7 років тому

      I am reading this with great interest - having been flying iNAV on 250 quads for a while, I got the impression the firmware was based on larger 450 size models .... The PIDs appear better suited to the 450's so take a bit of tweaking ... I have been considering building a 450 'flame wheel' style quad to enable better FC/Mag distance and possibly a more stable platform .. I am very new to hobby so not really aware of the issues with the larger models .. I assume you would not recommend me 'experimenting' with a 450 and 935KV motors

    • @julesgilson.
      @julesgilson. 7 років тому

      I am planning on something around the 650 size - very few frames (that I can find) and not even sure if I should do quad or hex! I think an up to date big quad build video would be great. Just nothing out there (again, that I can find)

    Thanks for another highly informative video. I have only recently discovered iNav and have been using Librepilot with a Revo board on a quadcopter and have been very pleased with the performance especially with velocity roam and RTH. I am thinking about branching into fixed wing fpv with the Raven flying wing form FlyingWings (I have the running gear from their "V" trainer). I'd like to add a flight controller (possibly with OSD) am I better off sticking with Librepilot and another Revo (I also have a CCD3 in my spares box that I may try first) or iNav with a FC which has OSD built in? Is there a resource that compares all FC's, firmware's and ground control software that your aware of? Thanks again for producing a fantastic channel.

      Alright, all your playlists are actually gems, crashcourses with a steep learning curve that will probably make my brain smoke from overheating :)
      One thing on reflection I might add: There are RC clubs for fixed wings in every country, in every area and they can help each other out.
      But they dont like quads, we are excluded from their clubs. Quad-hobbyists have nowhere to go for help but on forums and youtube, so maybe only pay attention to quads in the future?

    Been hearing a lot about iNav.I`m intersted in this for small wings,will it run on Atom?

      no, it is not the size of and will not run on an atom as quantum physics breaks down at that level.

      We've installed it on a 200 class quad and it works beautifully. It should work on any size craft with the right settings..

      I use it on my CC3D Atom for my AXN, works better than my flying 😂

      how did you get it to load ? I can not get it to flash to a CC3D

    • @jkishan16
      @jkishan16 7 років тому

      You need to short the boot pads (on the back I think) and then plug in your FTDI into the 'Main' port at the same time (or something like that). Find out how to flash Cleanflight onto CC3D and follow the steps in those videos :)

    I've added a Facebook page, INAV for Fixed Wing pilots. About 1/3rd of the new members haven't built their first INAV. This is the video series I recommend. This is very well done!

    OMG Man, how the heck do You know all this Stuff? Do You ever sleep? Seems like no matter what ever I'm researching or looking for answers, no matter what Build I'm working on, You've already covered it in some form or another.. Appreciate this info like You can't even imagine how much..Thanks for sharing Your knowledge! ;)

    • @Painless360
      @Painless360  7 років тому

      +Hyper Joe glad I can help! Let me know if there's anything you search for that we've not covered.. Happy flying!

      Well thank You Painless360, there is one thing, I'm sure You've covered it already, I just haven't ran across it yet. I'm doing a Project Autonomous QuadCopter using the APM 2.6 Controller and Flight Planner. I've watched Your Set-up Video on the APM 2.5/2.6 and while You're setting up the 2.5 You mention briefly about the 2.6 Board having the Compass externally mounted, which is what I have, it's included on the GPS Board. You were setting up the APM 2.5 that has the Compass on the Main Board, so when I set up the APM 2.6 do I need to have the Compass plugged into the Main Board? Maybe You could direct Me to the correct Video that shows or explains the difference in Procedure from the 2.5 versus the 2.6 and how I should proceed. Maybe I'm just missing or overlooked it somehow? Appreciate Your input, been on hold for awhile now, been meaning too ask earlier, but lots of Projects in the works ahead of this one. Thanks in advance for any help You can give! :)

    Painless360, thank you for your good work. Since I saw you using Seriously Pro hardware, I have a question. Did you ever get hands on this little stack Dominic is showing in his Video ua-cam.com/video/WHRSnqnBQNsS/v-deo.htmlP F3 EVO and SP OSD/PDB are both running Cleanflight versions. Do you know (or can guess) if the OSD works also with INAV on the FC and Cleanflight on the OSD/PDB since there is no INAV version for the OSD/PDB?TIA,Marv.

    • @Painless360

      Yes, video out about the build tips on that setup on Friday! :D

      Very interested in this new feature. It will help pilots get all the models iNav supports into the air faster with less hassle. Excited to see iNav 1.6 :)

      Hello Mister. can you tell me pls under (nearly) newest INAV 1.5 where are the PID controllers? luxfloat? rewrite? etc? drop down does not exists, I also tried to read through in CLI DUMP, no luck.

    • @Painless360
      @Painless360  7 років тому

      We've not touched them here.. Best of luck!

      Józsa Márton There is only one PID controller in INAV, and that is a modified version of luxfloat.
