10.0.0-RC1

INAV Configurator 10.0.0-RC1

This is the first Release Candidate for INAV 10.0, a new major version.
This build contains significant new features first seen in this release. A release candidate is for testing out the new features prior to the stable release planned for December. If you prefer a more reliable version and want bug fixes only, choose the latest release in the 9.1.x series instead.
This version of the INAV Configurator is intended for use with INAV 10.x firmware only — do not use with INAV 9.x or earlier.

📖 Full details, screenshots, and setup guides:

• Configurator 10.0 Release Notes wiki
• Firmware 10.0 Release Notes wiki

What version do I need?

Operating System	Download
Windows 32-bit	win32
Windows 64-bit	win64
Mac Intel	MacOS_x64
Mac Apple Silicon	MacOS_arm64
Linux Intel/AMD	linux_x64
Linux ARM (e.g. Raspberry Pi)	linux_arm64

⚠️ Upgrading from INAV 9.x — read this first

Use the Backup Config / Restore Config buttons on the Firmware Flasher tab to get automatic settings migration — pasting a diff all into the CLI does not run it.

1. Backup Config (Firmware Flasher tab) before flashing.
2. Select your target and flash INAV 10.0 with Full Chip Erase enabled. (Enable "Show unstable releases" to see this RC.)
3. Restore Config (same tab) after reconnecting. This is what runs Configurator 10.0's automatic settings-migration tool, handling most of the renames below for you.

Incompatible Settings

Removed: frsky_use_legacy_gps_mode_sensor_ids, led_pin_pwm_mode (→ replaced by unified PINIO PWM).
Renamed (auto-migrated via Restore Config only): 8 mavlink_* rate/buffer settings → mavlink_port1_*; nav_fw_wp_turn_smoothing → nav_fw_wp_turn_mode.

Full detail, migration values, and other default-value changes: see the firmware release notes' Incompatible Settings section.

Upgrading to INAV 9.0.2

Upgrading from INAV 9.0.0 or 9.0.1

Simply download and install the new INAV Configurator 9.0.2. No other changes needed.

Upgrading from INAV 8.0

1. Download and install the new INAV Configurator 9.0.2
2. Backup configuration with CLI diff all command or use the Diff All and Save to file buttons.
3. Flash INAV 9.0.1 WITH Full Chip Erase option enabled
4. Load your 8.0 Diff settings in to the CLI. Then take a note or write down the incompatible settings changes marked in RED.
5. Then copy your 8.0 Diff file and rename it 9.0. And edit the old incompatible settings.
6. Go to CLI and load your edited INAV 9.0 Diff
7. Done

Tip

Concerning step 6.
It can be a safer option to load your Diff All settings in two parts if you are using multiple Profiles. e.g. Control, Mixer or Battery.
This can be done by copying and loading the Diff All text setting from the top, down to the bottom of the # master settings category. Then load that into the CLI and press enter. Once it has written, press the Save Settings button.
Wait until it reboots and go back to the CLI tab again, then copy and load the rest of the Diff All text file. Starting from the # Control_profile 1 settings category, down to the bottom. Press enter. Once written, it will save by itself.

Diff update tool

Rather than steps 4 and 5 above. You can try this diff update tool. This is a work in progress. Currently it will try to update version 7 or later diffs to version 8 or later. Just paste your full diff all (not dump) in to the tool. Select the INAV version you're upgrading to. Then press the button. It will create a new diff for you and give you warnings about anything you should check.

INAV CLI Update Tool

Full Changelog: 8.0.1...9.0.0

INAV Configurator 9.0.0-RC4 release candidate for testing

INAV Configurator 9.0.0 RC4

This release candidate is for testing new features and changes that will be part of the 9.0.0 release soon

This version of the INAV Configurator is only intended to be used with INAV 9.x firmware. Do not use with other versions.

Contact other pilots, share experiences, suggestions and ask for help on:

	INAV Discord Server
	INAV Official on Facebook

Important!!

We currently don't have access to an Apple Developer Account to sign the Mac binaries, so you will need to run the following command on MacOS
to unlock the configurator App: xattr -cr "/path/to/your/INAV Configurator.app"

Please carefully read all of this document for the best possible experience and safety.

What version do I need to download?

Operating System	Release name
Windows 32 bit	win32
Windows 64 bit	win64
Mac Intel	MacOS_x64
Mac M series	MacOS_arm64
Linux Intel/AMD	linux_x64
Linux arm (e.g. Raspberry Pi)	linux_arm64

Upgrading

Upgrading from INAV 8.0

1. Download and install the new INAV Configurator 9.0
2. Backup configuration with CLI diff all command or use the Diff All and Save to file buttons.
3. Flash INAV 9.0 WITH Full Chip Erase option enabled
4. Load your 8.0 Diff settings in to the CLI. Then take a note or write down the incompatible settings changes marked in RED.
5. Then copy your 8.0 Diff file and rename it 9.0. And edit the old incompatible settings.
6. Go to CLI and load your edited INAV 9.0 Diff
7. Done

Tip

Concerning step 6.
It can be a safer option to load your Diff All settings in two parts if you are using multiple Profiles. e.g. Control, Mixer or Battery.
This can be done by copying and loading the Diff All text setting from the top, down to the bottom of the # master settings category. Then load that into the CLI and press enter. Once it has written, press the Save Settings button.
Wait until it reboots and go back to the CLI tab again, then copy and load the rest of the Diff All text file. Starting from the # Control_profile 1 settings category, down to the bottom. Press enter. Once written, it will save by itself.

Diff update tool

Rather than steps 4 and 5 above. You can try this diff update tool. This is a work in progress. Currently it will try to update version 7 or later diffs to version 8 or later. Just paste your full diff all (not dump) in to the tool. Select the INAV version you're upgrading to. Then press the button. It will create a new diff for you and give you warnings about anything you should check.

Upgrading from older versions

Important changes

Esri World Imagery

• Bing Maps is out of service. INAV Mission Control now uses Esri World Imagery. With the benefit of not requiring an API key.

OSD changes

• Rename Vario to Vertical Speed Indicator in the OSD tab.
• ADSB improved aircraft warning.
• Extra flexibility surrounding fixedwing minimum ground speed. Wind speed and Direction flight parameters have also been added to the programming Framework. #2382
• A vertical throttle indicator can now be selected on the OSD for faster reference than the numerical percentage indicator #2354

SmartPort telemetry options

This allows pilots to quickly set the telemetry sensors used by both the OpenTX telemetry widget and ETHOS telemetry dashboard. #2416

Language support

The INAV Configurator now supports Ukrainian.

Programming Framework with Javascript syntax

Use Javascript to program custom actions on your craft

Programming Framework (IPF)

The Active column in the programming framework as been moved in front of the operand conditions. This order is easier to follow, thinking of the Active in terms of an IF statement. It might not matter to non-programmers. But is more intuitive for programmers.

Various bug fixes

• Mission control WP land fix. #2371
• Servo mixer speed value overflow. #2326
• Fixedwing Level pitch trim accuracy fix. #2421
