In this video I go through the steps to update your plane to iNav 4. You can follow this video starting on iNav 3.0 or 4.0, and get on to the current, latest release 4.1. If coming from 3.0, I'd recommend skipping 4.0. 4.1 is mainly an HD Zero update. But does have some nice Configurator improvements too. The rest is the same as 4.0.
This video also covers a few important aspects which can get missed:
π© Some unexpected parameters changing when you re-apply the Airplane defaults.
π© If coming from 3.0 to 4.x, there is a change where some parameters are now stored. This is particularly important if you use multiple battery profiles.
If you want to see how to set up iNav 4 from scratch. Check out my other video here youtu.be/6YuJjAknBsQ
