![The MAVLink Settings.](https://2561100106-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Ff6JZovzOqBctA4C1o76u%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-c0deda077fef68e36715756a986b35e39f86fedd%2Fprojectsettingsmavlink20232.png?alt=media)

The **MAVLink Settings** cover the necessary data to provide functionality to the [**MAVLink Nodes**](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/2023.2/toolbox/communication/mavlink).

**MAVLink Communication** in **Incari** is available as a plugin and is enabled as default. However, in the case that it is disabled in the **Plugins Editor**, it will not appear in the **Project Settings**. Please refer to the [**Plugins Editor**](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/2023.2/modules/plugins/communication) to find out more information.

`Dialect` holds the 'rules' and messages of the protocol, in *XML* format.

`Name` is an identifying name of a *MAVLink* system chosen at the user's discretion. This will show up in the **Nodes** as a choice for the `Configuration` **Attribute**.

`Channel` is the link ID of a MAVLink packet.

`Baud Rate` is the speed of the communication for a channel. More information about this metric can be found in the **External Links** section.
