Bye bye Naze, we will not miss you that much
I have a news for all INAV pilots using Naze32, Flip32 and other boards compatible with NAZE target. You might call it a bad news, but reality is that it is not that bad and was long anticipated. It is official: INAV 1.7.2 was the last INAV release with NAZE target. That means the following: INAV 1.8 will not be available for Naze32, Flip32 and other boards compatible with that target.
You might was "why?". Quite simple: not enought flash memory, no way for new features to fit in. There was even not enought flash memory for bugfixes. And to be honest, I do not remember last time when NAZE users really got a new feature. Almost all new things were disabled for them. For more than a year, compiling NAZE target after adding something new was quite a challenge.
Does that mean that you can not use Nazes any more? Absolutely not. They are good boards and INAV 1.7.2 works on them just fine. You only will not be able to upgrade to INAV 1.8. And trust me, it is really worth it to invest in something better like F3 board. They are not that expensive after all...
By the way, CC3D is the next thing to be removed. Not yet, it still fits flash. Barely, but fits...
