Brilliant! This feature is one reason why I want to put a FC into my Twisted Hobby's Zorro which has been converted to a 4S, quad motored FPV wing. I normally launch by holding the front of the wing, applying half power and pretty much just letting go. I guess would have to radically alter my launch technique for inav as it seems it needs more initial movement speed.

Ordering a flight controller & GPS tonight so I can use this. I bought a Strix Nano Goblin a few weeks ago and have tried to launch it a couple dozen times. Result has been a couple dozen nose dives into the ground. Luckily the only damage so far has been a chip in the propeller.

@Jamesn-js1zp 3 года назад

I've used INAV auto launch on several plane/wings but have found that the Flex Innovations (Flight Test) - AURA 5 LITE with 3-axis and 6-axis is the easiest flight controller to use, it's much cheaper and is very effective for wings. The AURA 5 LITE although set up for Spectrum it works perfectly with many other systems. I've now 5 x AURA 5 Lite FC's and use it with my Futaba 14SG, 18SZ, Taranis, RadioMaster and Jumper systems. The launch assist feature on the AURA 5 is ideal for launching wings and has worked faultless for me every time I've used it.

You can also dry launch, throw them without power but with controls, to see CG and glide---- power off/ deadstik. If you are thinking it does not have inertia and speed it is a paperweight.

@SteffenRC 3 года назад

Lee, Great videos for sure.... Having issues with autolaunch engaging when I throw the plane. It will work sometimes, but only about 25% of the time. I have two planes that have the same issue (Dart 250g and AR Wing Pro). Both F411wse INAV 2.6. I noticed on a recent failed attempt FPV screen video that my throttle % isn't at 100 when I throw it. I push the stick up to full, but it seems like the percent of throttle is a bit behind. Should I wait a few seconds after I give it full throttle to throw it? Is it possible that my ESC isn't calibrated or on a soft start? Not sure what I'm doing wrong. The Zohd Dart 250g CLI: set nav_fw_launch_velocity = 200 set nav_fw_launch_accel = 1200 set nav_fw_launch_max_angle = 180 set nav_fw_launch_detect_time = 40 set nav_fw_launch_thr = 2000 set nav_fw_launch_idle_thr = 1200 set nav_fw_launch_motor_delay = 100 set nav_fw_launch_spinup_time = 100 set nav_fw_launch_min_time = 2000 set nav_fw_launch_timeout = 10000 set nav_fw_launch_max_altitude = 5000 set nav_fw_launch_climb_angle = 25 Appreciate any help, Will

@Painless360 3 года назад

Without knowing the weight of that model and the motor and prop you're using its hard to tell.. Its one of those things that comes with experience but it is better to err on the side of caution and use more thrust.. Happy flying

@dmctec5943 2 года назад

As always, great videos. I am already flying my AR 900 Wing with good results but with Matek F 405 Wing Controller. What Autolaunch configuration should I put on a Big Skywalker 2110 X8 Wing? Thanks

@Painless360 2 года назад

It depends on the thrust you get from the motor and prop. I find that you need the prop spinning at a decent rate (1400 or more) before the throw to get it into the air.. Best of luck!

@mainframecn Год назад

Hi Lee, thanks for the video. I've followed your steps and configured the AR Wing Pro with it, but I haven't been able to launch the wing succesfully. It went straight down and even broke the motor mount. Do you perhaps have settings specifically for the AR Wing Pro?

@turboromy Год назад

I'll be finally rest-flying with H743 this weekend. Think it is almost ready. One thing I really can't tell is how to "initiate" launch. Here, you say "arm it". Does that mean un-select motor kill and make it run ? If so, should motor be running before throwing ? Reason asking is mine starts running at about 1/3 throttle. Haven't yet tested after setting launch parameters. Or is it just the initial un-commanded (hand) acceleration that initiate a launch (as long as parameters are properly setup) ?

@nellodude Год назад

Excellent Video thank you. But why do you need to push the throttle all the way to the top when iNav has had max throttle and min throttle already set ?

@Painless360 Год назад

It's how Autolaunch works. Nothing to do with settings for throttles. Happy flying

@thefitchesvideo 3 года назад

I think an update is needed to this in inav. The amount of times I’ve seen AUTOLAUNCH appear on the osd, thrown it and in just fall because I haven’t applied the throttle pre throw. I think autolaunch on screen should only appear if the throttle is applied. Thoughts?

@NoAgendaFPV 3 года назад

I do a fake throw to get the motor spinning before i throw it, this avoids the issue you mentioned bc if you didn't move the throttle up the motor wont start spinning and you haven't thrown it yet.

@LIFEOFSTUFFEDANIMALS 2 года назад

Fantastic video, but I have a question, being somewhat unrelated. Sometimes I accidentally disarm the plane while in flight. It doesn’t seem to rearm when I flip the switch and I’m forced to do an emergency landing. Worried I might do it miles out. How do I make it arm-able always?

@Painless360 2 года назад

There are ways around it but I would strongly suggest that the arming switch is completely seperate for the ones you'd use when flying... Best of luck!

@DinGuSco 10 месяцев назад

Thanks! I have the Enhanced Dart XL and noticed that wiggle in straight & level flight. Mine had a setting of 2 that I will now bump up to 8. I also noticed in loiter that the nose and corresponding engine rpm go up and down as it circles. Will this setting effect that as well?

@Painless360 3 года назад

Which setting are you changing?

@jimcrouch683 3 года назад

@@Painless360 set nav_fw_control_smoothness. I think that INAV controls altitude via throttle which is why in loiter, it does that constant slow sine wave of changing RPM. I'm wonder if bumping this setting to improve flight stability will also improve loiter?

so question.... if you accidentally disarm in flight how do you rearm with autolaunch permanently enabled... also, how do you stop a screwed up launch. ie it noses into the ground do you just hit the disarm switch i assume ? what if you have A/L on a switch? I assume you set a/l before you arm right?

I know this is 4 months old, but make sure you are putting "get" and "set" before the settings. also make sure you have the equals ( = ) sign. so like this: get nav_fw_launch [enter key] and to set a value: set nav_fw_launch_timeout = 10000 [enter key] hope this helps someone.

@prki1024 Год назад

Hi, I had a few unsuccessful auto-launch attempts on my AR Wing Pro until I increased idle throttle to 70-80. Does that sound normal? I'm throwing it from my side and I'm not very good at it yet. I noticed the eleven throws are very tiny in auto-launch (they are ok in manual mode), is that how it should be? I'm concerned it doesn't do enough to correct itself after a poor throw from my hand.

@Painless360 Год назад

70-80? That isn't INAV then?

@prki1024 Год назад

@@Painless360 It is iNav, I meant 1700-1800 (I still prefer to think in %). At this level, I can feel the thrust and after my throw it picks up just before it hits the ground. It still doesn’t feel right it needs such a high idle throttle. The model is not particularly heavy: just 4s1p 18650, no GoPro just balancing weight instead to get CG right.

@Painless360 Год назад

Ah, I see. For some models here I need 50% idle jumping to 90-95% when thrown.. depends on the model, motor and prop used... best of luck

@sparkequinox Год назад

Should it be in any other modes before throwing and can that affect it? I think I had horizon mode on and 3 times it dived straight into the ground. The motor had came off the other day and I glued it back on, and while I think its still pointing down the planes centre I am worried its perhaps thrusting slightly off center. Other things it may be is that horizon mode, or maybe needing a recalibration. What happened when autolevel/autotune are activated when its sitting on the desk? New to INAV and just trying to rule out possible causes of bad attitude sensing. It has flown two perfect flights on its maiden so this is all new issues and perhaps just inexperience of INAV for me.

@Painless360 Год назад

Horizon is what is use. Sounds like your level, FW offset and launch angle needs checking. Alps you may need more thrust before/after throw so increase... Best of luck

Autolaunch will time out after the time you set in the CLI commands (covered in this video). Then it will fall back into the mode you have set on the radio (again, covered in the video) and you can select RTH as the mode before throwing so it goes into RTH at the end of the launch or my touching one of the sticks to cancel the launch before the timeout (again in the video)..

Здравствуйте, подскажите пожалуйста, при подаче газа двигатель отключается, перезагружается после как стик убираешь на ноль запускается если медленно раскручивать, и даже до 50% не доходит всё опять также сброс 1) Винт 12х6Е 2) двигатель Brushless D3536-910kv 3) аккумулятор 4s сборка из литиионок 18650 3000мач 4) контроллер matek f 411-wte 5) регулятор Brushless 40А 6) аппаратура flysky i6 Ещё раз снял винт поставил 3s липошку работает, ставлю винт если резко, то сразу вырубает, если медленно давить на газ, начинает набирает и снова сброс. Может в полетнике что то намудил, делал по видео, ещё ниразу не летал(

Could be a few things. Pulling too many amps from the ESC, ESC needs calibration... What have you already done?

Is a GPS necessary for this?

@Painless360 3 года назад

It depends on what you want to do. See the rest of the series..

@@Painless360 thanks, making my way through them now. I have the fc but no GPS yet. Mainly want it for nav launch but will probably use other features once I get a GPS. Thanks for the great content!

"permanent auto launch" wouldn't allow me to arm, have 3 quick beeps when I'd arm and motor wouldn't spin up

@SonAndDadFPV Год назад

still wondering why not set "launch-thr" to 2000... In real planes, our instructor gives us negative points if we do not open throttle all the way at take off

@Painless360 Год назад

If your model needs full power then do that. Happy flying

@jannesbosma9801 3 года назад

I like a bit of idle throttle so I'm sure autolaunch is active when I throw.

@MrVasmikey 3 года назад

its exactly why I do it as well. When I go to full throttle and see my prop spinning at idle, I know its ready to go!

@Painless360 3 года назад

Yep - me too! :D Lots of pilots don't like it but for me it's a confirmation it's ready to go!

@thefitchesvideo 3 года назад

@@Painless360 I suggested to the iNav community it would be great to have another feedback mechanism that the model is ready to go other that the motor. I think I’m banished 😂😂😂 Although I think I might start the motors up now as apparently it can help with torque roll. My models do suffer badly with this in autolaunch if the motors are at a standstill. Still my understanding is for safety reasons sometimes an idle isn’t possible hence why another feedback mechanism would be a great feature.

Is the 'Autolaunch' message across the OSD not enough confirmation? The second confirmation is holding the wing you'll see the elevons trying to achieve up pitch.

@jannesbosma9801 3 года назад

@@AdamGdoesFPV I usually throw with goggles on my forehead and the ailerons going up helps indeed.

0:45 -1:20 is why I haven't maiden my fixed wing I built more than a year ago. I fly drones, but have never flew a fixed wing. I wish someone was in my area 🤦‍♂️

@Painless360 2 года назад

With autolaunch, you can chuck it and it should do the rest!
