Wireless connections
From iNav 5 onwards, the Configurator supports wireless connections via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and Wifi (UDP and TCP).
BLE
The following adapters are supported:
- CC2541 based modules (HM1X, HC08/09)
- Nordic Semiconductor NRF5340 (Adafruit BLE Shield)
- SpeedyBee adapter
Flightcontrollers with BLE should also work, if you have an adapter/FC that doesn't work, open an issue here on Github and we will add it.
Configuring the BLE modules
Activate MSP in iNav on a free UART port and set the Bluetooth module to the appropriate baud rate.
Example for a HM-10 module:
Connect the module to a USB/UART adapter (remember: RX to TX, TX to RX), and connect it to a serial terminal (e.g. from the Arduino IDE), Standard baud rate is 115200 baud, CR+LF
AT+BAUD4
AT+NAMEiNav
The baud rate values:
Value | Baud |
---|---|
1 | 9600 |
2 | 19200 |
3 | 38400 |
4 | 115200 |
There are many counterfeits of the HC08/09 modules on the market, which work unreliably at high baud rates. However, it is recommended to avoid these modules and to use an original HM-10.
SpeedyBee adapter
Just connect it to the USB port, no further configuration needed.
TCP and UDP
Allows connections via Wifi.
Hardware:
-
DIY, ESP8266 based: This project can be used to make iNav Wifi enabled: https://github.com/Scavanger/MSPWifiBridge A small ESP01S module should still fit anywhere.
-
ExpressLRS Wifi: Should work (via TCP, port 5761), but untested due to lack of hardware from the developer. CLI and presets do not work here, problem in ELRS, not in iNav.
