I am just now flashing my first 7" to INAV... Wish me luck, and greetings from Serbia.

as always - great content & Very easy to follow. I've been having problems with my quad for about a week now and i felt that along with my upgrade to 4.0, it was time to do a reset to 'normal' with all my settings. Your series was the correct medicine that my quad & I both needed. keep up the great work, Pawel, and thanks!

Yes, it's a good idea for creating the advanced tutorials you mentioned. I'm waiting for it.

I have my RTH speed at 1600. The breaking and landing is a sight to see, my buddies at the airfield were VERY impressed :D

This is awesome stuff Pawel, thanks a lot for putting it all together! Just finished up my quad, now I will get it in the air! thanks a lot!

[wiechman]

Thank you sir, , Nice tutorial. NOW let me go try what I learned.

[MCsCreations]

Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

Thanks so much mate, very complete guide

Thank you for this series!
I'm just setting up a new build on inav 3.1 and this was a perfect walk through without interpreting changes from 2.6.
I would like to suggest an advanced video topic: "props out" configuration. I prefer this for a few reasons, but it can be tricky getting it set up in inav. Took a while, but finally got it working in 2.6.
Again thank you!

Nice video, waiting for the advanced part, also a depth description of all navigation mode would be appreciated

I'm watching this now. Today, I did my first flight on my 7-inch running Inav 5.1. It's my first time have an fpv quadcopter running Inav. My RTH test was successful! You should check it out. I was so funny! :)

Gracias por el tutorial lo seguí paso a paso y resulto muy practico para configurar un 8 pulgadas Frankenstein que arme con motores DJI Mavic placa Mateck F4 y un frame Handy HD 8

Thanks for the tutorial, I followed it step by step and it was very practical to configure an 8-inch Frankenstein that builds with DJI Mavic motors, Mateck F4 plate and a Handy HD 8 frame.

Is it normal to have no roll, pitch and yaw control at idle (7” multirotor). I’m experiencing that i have to bring the throttle up a little bit before i get control over roll, pitch and yaw. I had the quad setup for reverse prop direction and thought i had inverted direction but didn’t. Sorted that out but when testing i still had to raise throttle to get control and quad sounds like it wants to freak out. Spec is iflight titan dc 7 with f7 twinG 50amp stack. 2806.5 1920kv on 6s. It has matek Matek Ublox M8Q-5883 GPS Module and a Matek Optical Flow & Lidar Sensor 3901-L0X.

[theinventionshow]

when i activate RTH the drone turns around fast is it posible to make that movement go slow and smooth?

[gavakshitverma]

Hey thanks for the nice tutorial!
Do we have any feature like obstacle avoiding in inav ?
Can we use benwake lidar for the same ?
I only need one direction avoiding
Thanks!

No 10 inch pre defined tunning available 😢my quad wobbles at roll axis how can i fix it.. please give tunning profile

[serhiyUman]

hi, going on 8.0.1, and found no easy tune(7.1) more available. how to turn it back? thanks in advance

[setupfpv]

1:07 Sonar and flow sensors... it's first time when i see it on handmade drone )) not cheap assembly

[AgeAqua]

Hello Pawel, first of all thank you for your great work, now I've seen many videos of you on the subject of filters. I have a 4 inch quad, but I don't really understand whether it makes sense to fly, for example, without the "Main gyro filter cutoff frequency", i.e. only with a matrix and unicorn filter, or not. Some of the videos I saw of you were still with the "Notch filter". My drone actually flies very well, but I am not sure whether I have set the "dterm filter" correctly. Maybe there will be a video that summarizes the topic, at least thanks, I still learned a lot!
