    I've put off moving over to iNav 7 but this is very compelling stuff. Having to use CLI to adjust the roll orientation seemed a little silly compared to having a GUI.

    Thanks for the video. I have a Beitan GPS antenna without any arrows. In My OMP Bushmaster, I've mounted the Matek F405 Wing backwards (180 degrees). Upgrading to INAV 7.0, I didn't notice the new alignment feature until I watched your video. When I looked up this, I discovered the arrow on the GPS points backwards. In your video, I didn't quite get which way the GPS arrow should point, the same way as the FC, or in the flight direction?

    • @Painless360
      @Painless360  5 месяцев назад +2

      To the nose of the model. Remember, this alignment for the GPS unit only applies if you are using the compass. Best of luck

    Wow, I've needed this feature for a long time, in INAV 2.3 approx there was a FC alignment tab that disappeared and had to be ALIGNED IN CLI!!! And it still didn't work properly.

    Just a quick question for you. I am using the Speedybee F405 wing FC. I am using the rudder channel but as a pass through so the F405 is not controlling the rudder but I am on my Radiomaster boxer radio. I am using Inav. Can I do a aileron to rudder mix on the radio and not effect the FC? Or is there a way to do it though Inav? Thanks for your help and your great videos. Regards from Montreal, Canada.

      @johnchandler4565 5 месяцев назад

      @Livinglifeat60 Not sure if I have missed something here and I am no INAV guru, however, by saying 'passthrough' do you mean that you have a mixer rule in the INAV Mixer that allocates a servo for your rudder with an input of RC Yaw?
      If so, all you have to do is add another mixer rule in INAV that uses the same servo number, but the input will be RC Roll and a weight of your choosing. By using 'RC roll' it will be unstabilised.
      Be aware that the mix is accumulative and application of both aileron and rudder will enhance (OR cancel) the control surface throw.

    • @Painless360
      @Painless360  5 месяцев назад

      Yes you can, so long as the only output affected on the radio is the rudder. You can also setup that mix within INAV and reconnect the rudder to the FC too... Happy flying

    My the model in the setup tab is 180 from my multirotor. But my multirotor is calibrated correctly as in pointing in the right compass heading. All axis move correctly and multirotor flys great and all gps functions are great. Do you know why the setup model is 180 different? Thanks for your time.

    Nice explanation Lee. What if the GPS/Magnetometer doesn't have an arrow screenprinted on it, is there any way to determine the front? I am referring specifically to the Walksnail WS-M181 GPS; not only did they reverse the SCL/SDA labels, it seems like they forgot to label the 'front' as well.

    • @Painless360
      @Painless360  5 месяцев назад +1

      Mount it and see if the model rotates when tilted. keep trying till it doesn't... that'll be the 'front'.

    • @artifixprime
      @artifixprime 5 месяцев назад +1

      The HGLRC and Flywoo M10 units are the same - no arrow. Can you use the dot in the corner of the chip to determine which direction is the "front"?

    • @Painless360
      @Painless360  5 месяцев назад +2

      I use the method mentioned. Sadly there isn't a 'rule' every GPS follows (but most do).

      You actually managed to get the compass to work on the walksnail gps ? so many people are ending up with duff items either badly labelled or they don't work at all , i tried everything in ardupilot and inav and reversed the rx/tx and it just don't work , binned it now and fitted a ublox ............no more problems
