INAV Configurator for Mac

INAV Configurator for macOS

A light, free utility built for macOS users who need to set up and tune INAV-based flight controllers. It gives hobby pilots and drone builders a simple desktop interface to configure hardware, tweak controls, and monitor system behavior without having to work from the command line.

What it enables

• Broad configuration control — change flight modes, calibrate sensors, and modify other controller parameters to match your aircraft and flying style.
• Live telemetry and charts — view real-time performance data so you can validate changes and diagnose issues while the craft is active.
• Tuning tools — adjust PID and other flight parameters to refine stability and responsiveness for different airframes.
• User-friendly setup — a graphical workflow that makes common tasks straightforward for newcomers and experienced users alike.

Typical use cases

INAV Configurator is useful when you need to:

• Verify sensor calibration and confirm correct orientation.
• Switch or fine-tune flight modes for different mission profiles.
• Iterate on PID and responsiveness settings to improve handling.
• Monitor data during test flights to make informed adjustments.

Options and alternatives

If you want to try other tools, consider:

• CheatSheet Free — an accessible option that some users prefer for quick references and simpler setup needs.
• Other popular configurators — alternatives exist that may offer different feature sets or platform support depending on your build and workflow.

Practical tips

• Always back up your current configuration before making major changes.
• Test adjustments in a safe, controlled environment (short, low-altitude flights or on a secured test bench).
• Use the live data view to confirm improvements after each tuning change rather than making multiple changes at once.
