Inav: Anyone willing to test my firmware target for Heli-Nation Talon F7 Fusion?

[ricardodeazambuja]

Hi,

I managed to compile and make iNAV configurator recognise my flight controller Heli-Nation Talon F7 Fusion. On iNAV configurator it seems to be working. Here is my branch (the target name is CLRACINGF7 to keep the same name as from Betaflight):
https://github.com/ricardodeazambuja/inav/tree/talonf7fusion

I compiled it using the docker recipe from iNAV:

docker run --rm -v "$(pwd)":/home/src/ inav-build make TARGET=CLRACINGF7

Converted it to raw bin using (from inside the obj directory):

docker run --rm -v "$(pwd)":/home/src inav-build arm-none-eabi-objcopy -I ihex -O binary inav_2.3.0_CLRACINGF7.hex inav_2.3.0_CLRACINGF7.bin

and finally downloaded it to the flight controller using dfu-util (after starting the flight controller holding the DFU enabling button):

dfu-util -a 0 -s 0x08000000:leave -D inav_2.3.0_CLRACINGF7.bin

If you want to backup your original firmware, here is the command:

dfu-util -a 0 -U talonf7fusion_betaflight.bin -s 0x08000000:131072

Any help will be much appreciated ;)

DISCLAIMER: I haven't flown anything using it, so totally untested!

Cheers,

Ricardo

Ok, I learned how to fix the order of the motors and everything seems to work. Tested the motors, armed and disarmed on the bench, that kind of stuff. Now it "only" needs to fly to confirm that it really works :)

BTW, using the inav-configurator that installs as a chrome app (instead of running from the repo using "npm install" and "npm start .") allowed me to download the firmware to the flight controller directly from the generated .hex using inav-configurator firmware flasher and "Load Firmware (Local)", hurray!

I was almost forgetting to mention my Python interface also seems to work with iNav... on this flight controller at least: https://github.com/ricardodeazambuja/YAMSPy
I'm curious if there's a bug on my code because the MSP V2 messages are much much slower to receive than MSP V1.
