INAV's release notes again underline why output mapping deserves a bench test
The project's prerelease guidance warns users to remove propellers and check motor and servo outputs after upgrading because flexible output allocation can change which physical outputs a configuration uses.

A configuration that parses correctly can still drive the wrong actuator. On a fixed wing, that can turn a software upgrade into reversed or misplaced control surfaces.
Verify each output individually, then check direction, endpoints, failsafe and mode transitions before reinstalling propellers.
