iNav Pro Tip: Turn off 'P' Gain for Fixed Wing. Does it work?

[@alexcook4851]

Experimentation I found that P gain is needed for smaller wings (like Mini-AR) for stabilization. It makes a big difference in windy conditions. I use P=5. For big wing (Goblin) I’m going for P=0. Love the INav content !

Did this already on my Inav 2.2.1 wing last year and it flew amazing smooth. Even on RTH and HOLD..... People should try this out.

[@Painless360]

It has been interesting to see the different experiences for people who try this out. I rally like the way it flew my Drak but others had less good experience. As always with things like tuning tips there are no 'one size fits all' solutions - hence the note in the description. Glad you had a similar experience as I did :D Happy flying!

@@Painless360 Well, might differ on models, mine was already tested without stabilyzer, just to get the needed throws and...the right CG, This might not be the way for everyone.

So advanced nowadays.its amazing the things we can do and will beable to do soon.

Fantastic tips, Lee! Thanks a lot! 😊 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

The planes I've tried pavel's recommendation for zero P gain have felt demonstrably worse, and ended up settling on fairly low P gains. I get nervous when planes move around too much in the wind when they're further away than I really want to be walking to collect them lol. But it's important for people to know a plane wont fall out of the sky if they do this, so it's something they can experiement with.

That's the spirit in which I shared this. Thanks for commenting!

Great video. I appreciate your way of explaining things and prefer to watch and listen to you. Great channel and happy to be a long time sub...👍🏻🍻👊🏻

Awesome! Thank you!

That is the second protip from the KZbinrs about inav recently, which is: if you want to get inav working good - set some parameters to 0. Do not know what to think about this.

[@Painless360]

I didn't find that here. Thanks for the other suggestions I will be trying them and making a follow up video...

[@johnchurch2321]

Good afternoon Paul! Do you still do this with iNav 5?

[@Painless360]

Default PIDs are very low now in INAV anyway.. Happy flying

[@carlharrison3637]

Hi, a quick question on propellers for fixed wing planes - if the prop goes on at the rear end of the plane is that a CCW prop and one's that go on the front, CW ? Thanks!

Great tip... thank you for this video

Muchas gracias por información

[@longrangefpv]

It's proven standard PID's or piff's never work for all, so many parameters make a difference. Same in quadcopters

[@Painless360]

Yep, no one case suits all. Despite what you may read in some of the forums. Happy flying!
