INAV on tracked vehicles - autonomous RC tank maybe?

[@StefanNaewe]

Perfect, Pawel! Just in time. I'm currently building a tracked rover together with my 13y. old son!

[@Terry_Fritz]

Thanks again Pawel for getting my radio programmed to interface with my Christmas present tracked rover. The flight controller, receiver and ESC are doing the right thing; just need to connect them.

[@bossrc2731]

Great Tutorial! I would like to see an autonomous tank using INAV as you explained 👌

[@ffw13]

Thank you some much. Hope this will work on my baitboat.

[@MCsCreations]

Pretty interesting, Pawel! Thanks a lot! 😃 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@CgitEinsteins]

awesome, thank you sir

Thank you so much for this tutorial!

Thank you, great video!

[@fpvnafret]

this was very helpful! thanks bro you are amazing!

This will be useful for a 4WD longboard I'm building with hoverboard motors on each wheel. It has no turning servo, so I think I need to treat it as a "tracked" vehicle. My intent is to make a rideable rover capable of autonomous missions with a 200Kg+ payload. Naturally, it will also respond to traditional manual controls as well, much like a Boosted board. I think I'll have to deactivate the differential when there is a rider with manual controls?

[@dronemate]

Thank you.great job pawel..its work. But i tried the waypoint mission and was not working. Can you explain more about this?

[@Woz4tetra]

My FC has an IMU which I use for telemetry. Is there a way to disable IMU failsafe in rover mode without disabling the IMU entirely? I'd like to drive my RC car upside down.

[@EngineeringPortalPractice]

I need your help please. Thanks for great video.I already configured rover like you.When I give a command Left Throttle(Forward/Back) and Right Throttle(Left/Right)same time servo outputs freezing. For control the rover must restart MATEKSYS again. I read S1,S2 outputs of the MATEKSYS with Arduino Analog Inputs and then control rover motors with L298P driver board. Please give me advise why servo outputs is freezing? How can I improve INAV configuration?

[@BuZZarDFPV]

I felt a little smart until I watched this, Wow! You have my respect good sir. I built a micro 1/32 rc car, using two motors on the rear to drive a wheel each. F3 brushed FC and inav 2.6. Working great so far, i obviously don't have reverse due to the oneway brushed FC. I have yaw stabilization on the turning servo. Working great too. I've wanted to know though, could I use the mixer to make the two rear motors act like a car diff? i.e. i don't need reverse, but the ability to slow and speed one up as i turn. I'm using motor 1 and motor 2 output in rover mode, or should I just set it up as a differential plane? .

[@user-xi8fo3yi4h]

Hi Pavel. I am using matek f411 but my outputs start from S3 so the motor channels S1 and S2 are not used. Do you have a solution

[@Bean-Time]

same exact situation! I am searching desperately for a way to output servo pwm on S1 and S2 but all I can find is rewritting the iNav firmware yourself. Have you fixed this issue?

[@Bean-Time]

I have found a fix, if you are using the F411SE, I have a custom build to fix it

[@user-xi8fo3yi4h]

@@Bean-Time please do share your fix

[@Bean-Time]

@@user-xi8fo3yi4h you have to change the iNav code and unless you have experience with Ubuntu and git, it's not easy to do. But if you are using the Mateksys F411SE, I can send you my compiled code.

[@lucsonnelson8037]

What’s the fix bro?

[@sniperpss232l]

Help me pls 🙏 Is it possible in inav to make a reverse motor not a center throttle (going forward and back) but on a switch with full throttle????

[@rickzfpv3118]

I am in the process of setting up a rover r/c car for my son who is in a robotics class. I want to use Inav because I want to install a gps so he can do missions on it. This is my question I am using an AIO because the car uses a motor on each wheel. So total of 4 motors. Can this be done in Inav or is it limited to just 2 motors. The recommended AIO was the fettec AIO and I don’t want to go that route. Any help with this would be very much appreciated

[@gavsfpv3786]

Hi, I'm trying to get this working on an old broken 4in1 esc, (1 esc blown) it was running dshot, i have every setup the same in the video, and it all looks to work great in the configurator, except i can't get drive to my motors, i have tried standard protocol, dshot 300 and 600, swapped signal wires around on the esc,but still no luck, can you drive brushless motors with this setup?

[@Bean-Time]

is there a way to use S1 (and maybe S2 depending on your board) with this method?

[@ElseysEmpireRacing]

Pawel, this is fantastic but I am running into a roadblock. I can follow along exactly till the Mixer page at 6:12 minutes. You get Output S2 over Function Servo 0, and Output S3 over Function Servo 1. I get Output S3 over Function Servo 0, and Output S4 over Function Servo 1. Ultimately at the end, I cannot get servos 0 and 1 to move in Outputs. This depth is definitely beyond my abilities so I ask if you have any idea where I went wrong? Thankyou (Tried both F411 Wing and F722 PX)

[@ElseysEmpireRacing]

I figured out the problem. My throttle wasn't in the center when I tried to arm. It won't arm by simply moving to center, you must be in center then arm or it won't happen. Next my steering was correct but the throttles worked opposite each other. I corrected that in the mixer by making both Stabilized Yaw +100 weight, and in Outputs, making Servo 0 Reverse. Also you need a working ARM switch in Modes. :)

[@ElseysEmpireRacing]

A couple more things others may find helpful; My Matek F411 Wing requires the battery to power the Rx and GPS. On ~10 sec to be recognised in Setup. To get all green flags, If indoors, clear (x) all "Nav" modes in Modes page. Occasionally I had to "Save and reboot" the Config page, to get the last flag green. (?) Then, center throttle and ARM. Should get movement in Outputs page.

[@pranjal3727]

With the inav 2.6.0, a new settings called "Constrol Derivative". Can you please explain its use. (I tried googling and readme files. Too noob to directly understand it from code) Thanks

[@BogHopperFPV]

Pawel, many thanks, what happens if you use forward throttle plus yaw? Will the throttle values exceed +/- 100 and how will the ESCs cope?

[@FPVUniversity]

Servo outputs are capped at 2000us so you will loose some of the authority since one motor will slow down but the second one will not accelerate

[@ElseysEmpireRacing]

Pawel, Perfect timing tutorial. I have followed this to the letter and when I get to the "Programming" page, it is blank. I bound the receiver and a few other things to no avail. What am I missing? Thanks (Using an old but unused SP F3 EVO FC) Inav 2.6.0, FW 2.5.2

[@ElseysEmpireRacing]

I just tried a Matek F4se and it works. Is it safe to say this won't work on an F3 FC ??

[@FPVUniversity]

It's not enabled on F3 boards

[@billysbikes8671]

so does this output 50hz servo or use motor output protocol drop down?

[@Bean-Time]

It uses 50hz servo pwm

[@youerz]

All the blheli ESC are reversible?

[@Bean-Time]

You can make the ESC reversible with blheli configurator.

[@zhuzhu262526]

Can INAV used on Mecanum wheel vehicle？

[@svenp2921]

Yes als hättest du geahnt das ich gerade ein Panzer aus Stahl baue. Dann bekommt er ein FC eingebaut 😜😊😊😊

[@mikevars8979]

When are you moving to Rumble? I am dropping KZbin soon and hope to still be able to view your great videos there.

[@AndrewNewton]

Are you spamming this message Mike?

[@NoStressFPV]

.. but if it's truly autonomous... can you call it "RC"? O_o
