Note: To upgrade from a previous version, see the (much shorter) upgrade instructions
Don't be too concerned about the length of these instructions. The first two sections are about setting up telemetry in INAV and your transmitter, which for most is already completed. Also, the instructions are for multiple transmitters, telemetry protocols and I've tried to be very descriptive so even a novice could follow along. Therefore, it's a bit verbose but proceeds quickly, I promise.
- Setup SmartPort(S.Port), F.Port, D-series, or Crossfire telemetry to send to your transmitter: INAV telemetry docs
- FrSky receivers (skip for TBS Crossfire):
- If you have an current sensor, in CLI settings set
battery_capacity
to the mAh you want to draw from your battery - Set the fuel unit to output the percent:
- If running INAV v1.9.0+:
set smartport_fuel_unit = PERCENT
in CLI settings - If running INAV previous to v1.9.0:
set smartport_fuel_percent = ON
in CLI settings
- If running INAV v1.9.0+:
- If using pilot or radar view and INAV v2.0.0+,
set frsky_pitch_roll = ON
in CLI settings for accurate attitude display and pitch angle
- If you have an current sensor, in CLI settings set
- With battery connected and after GPS fix discover telemetry sensors so all telemetry sensors are discovered
- FrSky receivers (skip for TBS Crossfire):
- Telemetry distance sensor name
0420
(or0007
with D-series receivers) should be changed toDist
and set to the desired unit:m
orft
- The sensors
Dist
,Alt
,GAlt
andGspd
can be changed to the desired unit:m
orft
/kmh
ormph
- If you
set frsky_pitch_roll = ON
on INAV v2.0.0+ (which I suggest) you can optionally change the following for clarification:- Telemetry sensor
0430
(or0008
with D-series receivers) can be changed toPtch
- Telemetry sensor
0440
(or0020
with D-series receivers) can be changed toRoll
- Telemetry sensor
