1 # INAV - navigation capable flight controller
3 ## F3 based flight controllers
5 > STM32 F3 flight controllers like Omnibus F3 or SP Racing F3 are deprecated and soon they will reach the end of support in INAV. If you are still using F3 boards, please migrate to F4 or F7.

12 * Outstanding navigation performance out of the box
13 * Position Hold, Altitude Hold, Return To Home and Missions
14 * Excellent support for fixed wing UAVs: airplanes, flying wings
16 * Rangefinder support (sonar and laser)
17 * Oneshot and Multishot ESC support.
18 * Blackbox flight recorder logging (to onboard flash or external SD card).
19 * Lux's new PID (uses float values internally, resistant to looptime variation).
20 * Simultaneous Bluetooth configuration and OSD.
22 * Smartport Telemetry.
23 * RSSI via ADC - Uses ADC to read PWM RSSI signals, tested with FrSky D4R-II and X8R.
24 * OLED Displays - Display information on: Battery voltage, profile, rate profile, version, sensors, RC, etc.
25 * In-flight manual PID tuning and rate adjustment.
26 * Rate profiles and in-flight selection of them.
27 * Multiple simultaneous telemetry providers.
28 * Configurable serial ports for Serial RX, Telemetry, MSP, GPS - Use most devices on any port, softserial too.
29 * Multi-color RGB LED Strip support (each LED can be a different color using variable length WS2811 Addressable RGB strips - use for Orientation Indicators, Low Battery Warning, Flight Mode Status, etc)
30 * PIDs from CF/BF can be used in INAV, no need to retune for INAV
