Do anyone has a tail sitter to test it?

Great, I want to give it a try！

Hi,
Thanks for this feature, I would like to test it on my plane (Atom RC penguin with speedybee F405 wing).
@shota3527 would you share your inav settings for your penguin ?
Cheers

More test needed Still thinking about whether to use a PLATFORM_TAILSITTER or set tailsitter = on ,leaning towards tailsitter = on for less changes and more flexible setup

I think that PLATFORM_TAILSITTER is wrong as one might mix different "platforms" into a VTOL. And those "platforms" already exist. For me tailsitter is mix of two platforms, and we just switch in between.

I am also against tailsitter = on. My suggestion is to introduce additional variables that will give full flexibility, something like:

VTOL_MIXER1_PITCH = 0 - a pitch in respect to the board alignment in deg (might be forced to 0 to be used in general)
VTOL_MIXER2_PITCH = 90 - a pitch in respect to the board alignment
VTOL_TRANSITION_PITCH = 45 - a pitch in respect to the board alignment during transition phase

One can also force MIXER1 (or MIXER2 whatever seems more convinient) to have the alignment parallel to the board, thus avoiding possible confusion and over defining the problem.

I think that INAV would allow for full range of VTOLs, unlimited to tailsitters, with:

VTOL_MIXER2_PITCH = 90 - a pitch in respect to the board alignment in deg
VTOL_TRANSITION_PITCH = 45 - a pitch in respect to the board alignment during transition phase,

Nobody knows what people will invent in future. I suggest introduction of maximal flexibility already now.

I built a plank wing tailsitter and vertical flight works with 7.0. I will set transition into ACRO mode for horizontal flight in wing platform until 7.1 gets out.

I would be happy to test. At the moment I do not have GPS nor compass. And weather is getting bad in my part of Europe... My board is "SpeedyBee F405 WING APP"

Can anyone please post a tailsitter diff somewhere, as a part of documentation? It's cool to see videos that Inav 7.1 can do that, but how? is an open question. The docs I read so far do not cover how to do that bicopter settings...
Thank you very much!
