Features

  • Works with all FrSky telemetry receivers (X, R9 and D series), all TBS Crossfire receivers, all FrSky Taranis and Horus transmitters, and the Jumper T16 transmitter
  • Compatible with Betaflight using FrSky X or R9 series receivers (with reduced functionality) and TBS Crossfire support with Betaflight 4.0.0+
  • Launch/pilot-based model orientation and location indicators (great for lost orientation/losing sight of your model)
  • Compass-based direction indicator (with magnetometer sensor on multirotor or fixed-wing with GPS)
  • Pilot (glass cockpit) view which includes attitude indicator as well as pilot-familiar layout of additional data
  • Radar (map) view shows model in relationship to home position, can be displayed either as launch/pilot-based or compass-based orientation
  • Altitude graph view shows altitude for the last 1-6 minutes
  • Horus and Jumper T16 transmitters show all views at the same time, and include additional features like roll scale
  • Bar gauges for Fuel (% battery mAh capacity remaining), Battery voltage, RSSI strength, Transmitter battery, GPS accuracy (HDOP), Variometer (and Altitude for X9D, X9D+ and X9E transmitters)
  • Display and voice alerts for flight modes and flight mode modifiers (altitude hold, heading hold, home reset, etc.)
  • Voice notifications for % battery remaining (based on current), voltage low/critical, high altitude, lost GPS, ready to arm, armed, disarmed, etc.
  • GPS info: Satellites locked, GPS accuracy (HDOP), GPS altitude, GPS coordinates. Also logs the last GPS location (reviewed from the config menu)
  • Playback previous flights via telemetry log files, including fast forward, rewind, and pause features
  • Display of current/maximum: Altitude, Distance, Speed and Current
  • Display of current/minimum: Battery voltage, RSSI strength
  • Title display of model name, flight timer, transmitter voltage and receiver voltage
  • Menu configuration options can be changed from inside the script and can be unique to each model
  • Speed and distance values are displayed in metric or imperial based on transmitter's telemetry settings
  • Voice files, modes and config menu in English, German, French or Spanish (more languages to follow)

Requirements

  • OpenTX v2.2.2+ running on Taranis Q X7/Q X7S, X9D/X9D+, X9E, X9 Lite, X-Lite/X-Lite Pro, Horus X10/X10S or X12S (OpenTX v2.2.3+ is suggested)
  • Jumper T16 requires JumperTX 2.2.3+ (May 23, 2019 or after release)
  • The OpenTX/JumperTX firmware on your transmitter needs to includes the luac build option
  • FrSky X, R9 or D series telemetry receiver: X4RSB, X8R, XSR, R-XSR, XSR-M, XSR-E, RX4R, RX6R, XM, XM+, R9, R9 Slim, R9 Slim+, R9 Mini, R9 MM, D8R-II plus, D8R-XP, D4R-II, etc. or any TBS Crossfire receiver: Micro, Nano, Diversity, etc.
  • INAV v1.7.3+ running on your flight controller (INAV v2.1.0+ is suggested for full functionality) - Also compatible with Betaflight (with reduced functionality)
  • GPS - If you're looking for a GPS module, I suggest the Beitian BN-880

Suggested Sensors

  • Altimeter/barometer (GPS altitude used if barometer not present)
  • Magnetometer/compass for multi-rotor (fixed-wing craft use GPS for directional info)
  • Current/amperage (for fuel gauge)

Notes

  • INAV v2.1.0+ is required for TBS Crossfire support (some telemetry missing from Crossfire: HDOP, GPS altitude, variometer and heading hold notifications)
  • INAV v2.0.0+ is required for FrSky D-series telemetry and proper GPS accuracy (HDOP) display
  • If using pilot or radar view or a Horus transmitter and INAV v2.0+, set frsky_pitch_roll = ON in CLI settings for more accurate attitude display
  • INAV v1.9.1+ is required for F.Port compatibility
  • INAV v1.8.0+ is required for Home reset voice notification
  • OpenTX v2.2.2 (release version) is required for compatibility with Taranis X-Lite transmitter and Crossfire telemetry
  • Betaflight compatibility is mostly complete, except for some GPS and flight mode information missing from Betaflight
  • Use the OSD to control VTx band, frequency and power (Betaflight lua script can't be run at the same time as INAV Lua Telemetry due to limited transmitter memory)
