Part #13 - iNav Flight Modes, What They Are & How I Set Mine Up (and crucially why)
Howdy, in this episode you'll find out about flight modes in iNav, how to set them up and why I set mine up the way I do. The iNav wiki is here https://github.com/iNavFlight/inav/wiki/Flight-modes so you can find out more about them. As always, I hope this episode helps you, Matt
Parts Used
================
These are the two required parts for this series.
Omnibus Betaflight F4 Flight Controller V1 STM32 F405 MCU Integrated OS
https://goo.gl/2ndQ4B
Ublox NEO-M8N Flight Controller GPS with Protective Shell for PIX PX4 Pixhawk
https://goo.gl/7Z3gh1
The first part is a F3 flight control board which has a OSD built-in and the second part is a GPS unit.
You need the GPS module so iNav knows where the model is. I've been using the same module with other boards for months and they work great. They even pick up the Russian GLONASS satellites for more accurate and faster position fixes.
Advanced Setup
-----------------
I have been using another board F4 here https://goo.gl/lqg1Ih that has a current sensor on board & a different pinout to the one suggested above.
I've personally got a few of these and they're also working well.
They do come with the extra complexity of having a whole 3 extra wires and you'll also need a current meter to set the current setting accurately.
Note: I won't be showing how to setup the advanced board until the end of the series.
Either choice is a good one, I'm using both with my models and it's been working brilliantly. See this playlist for the evidence: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgoM4-umzSqfGSJnSjoNoIz5IHoRtwzaj
