Important changes
H7 stability
INAV 6.1 fixes a bug that was causing the H7 MCU to stop receiving RX signal after EEPROM save operation was performed. This happened from CMS and from Configurator. INAV 6.1 fixes the issue and RX operation is no longer stopped after the save operation
Betaflight HD OSD compatibility mode
INAV 6.1 adds the BFHDCOMPAT OSD mode that is compatible with the Betaflight HD OSD layout.
New targets
- HAKRCF722V2
- HAKRCF405V2
- SKYSTARSF722MINIHD
- SkyStars AT32
- SkyStars H743
