Sorry, MacOs in not supported currently (assistance needed to build plugin for MacOs, see development.md). Make usre you have OpenAL library installed otherwise run sudo apt install libopenal1 Setup (MacOs) Note: Use "Internal View/Forward with No Display" for full immersion FPV flights:įor Linux, all steps are analogous to Windows.

Flight using RC Controller, setup PIDs etc.

Plugin should automatically detect serial port.

When scenery is loaded, select Plugins->INAV HITL->Link->Connect to flight controller.

Select "Show extra aircraft from older versions" to see INAV Surfwing.

Configure FC (see Flight Controller configuration below).

Make sure FC is flashed with simulator-enabled firmware

Connect Flight Controller to PC using USB Cable.

Unzip, copy Aircraft folder to X-Plane 11\Aircraft folder in X-Plane installation location.

If upgrading from previous version, delete folder X-Plane 11\Aircraft\Extra Aircraft\NK_FPVSurfwing\.

download Aircraft.zip from last release.

Demo allows to fly for 15 minutes in Seattle region. Official INAV firmware releases do not include simulator support currently. Take precompiled binaries from release (INAV 5.0.0 with simulator support), or build yourself from branch: (INAV 5.0.0 with simulator support), or build yourself from master branch of official INAV repository. IMPORTANT:: You have to flash Simulator-enabled INAV firmware.

This action will add INAV Surfwing flying wing model with this plugin. The contents of release\Aircraft folder should be placed in the Aircraft folder of X-Plane: X-Plane11\Aircraft\. Also INAV Surfwing flying characteristic seems to be worse in X-Plane 12. While X-Plane 12 has better visual appearance, X-Plane 11 is still recommented choice due to better performance. Simulation requires at least 50, or even better 100, solid FPS without freezing.

This plugin connects to Flight Controller through USB cable and passes gyroscope, accelerometer, barometer, magnethometer, GPS and Pitot tube data from X-Plane, which replace data from physical sensors.įC sends back yaw/pitch/roll controls which are passed to X-Plane. X-Plane is flight simulator with accurate physics simulation. While not been a main purpose, plugin can be used to improve pilot skils or getting familiar with INAV settings. I hope this plugin can help to improve INAV firmware.

It is not Ok when people debug autopilot by running with RC Plane on the field 😃 I believe that good testing and debugging tools are key points to achieve software stability. INAV-X-Plane-HITL is plugin for X-Plane for testing and developing INAV flight controller firmware. X-Plane is a flight simulation engine series developed and published by Laminar Research Hardware-in-the-loop (HITL) simulation, is a technique that is used in the development and testing of complex real-time embedded systems. Hardware-in-the-loop plugin for X-Plane 11 & 12 for INAV Flight Controller firmware:
