Gps tracking

[Firemedic521]

I just built a f450 quadcopter that is running INAV , it fly's really well. My question is ... Is there a way to have your uav transmit it's gps coordinates back so you can track it on your phone or tablet? I have spent quite awhile searching today and must not be using the right terminology. I would like to see on a map where my quadcopter is in case it starts to get away from me. Thanks for any advice.

It may be possible if you have the correct OSD, I'm not sure. But iNav does support return to home in case you get in trouble, together with a lot of other features you can't find in Betaflight. Have you checked out the Wiki?

Hey Firemedic, I think this may be what you're looking for..............

Droid Planner 2 (Android)
Droid Planner 2 can also be downloaded from the Google Play store. It is free and released under GNU Public License v3.

Droid Planner only supports iNav's one-way mavlink protocol. The following telemetry data is displayed:

Vehicle position on map, active flightmode, heading, altitude, speed.

A broken connection recovers once restored after any amount of time. The flight track remains on screen even when data link is broken -> lost model recovery. Log files can be opened in PC software Mission Planner."
