Mr.D - Falling with style | iNav Pre-Maiden Checklist @MrD | Uploaded 3 years ago | Updated 2 hours ago
In this video we go through a pre-maiden checklist for iNav. This is a sanity check to make sure we have not forgotten something fundamental. I have also added the list to my web site at mrd-rc.com/tutorials-tools-and-testing/flight-controller-therapy/inav-pre-maiden-checklist-a-helpful-reminder-and-saver-of-foam and made a downloadable version for printing at mrd-rc.com/go/inav-pre-maiden-checklist-pdf
