The present invention provides a navigation controller with real-time visual indication of a specific cardinal direction in relation to a front direction of the navigation controller which allows checking on whether the heading estimation of the UAV is subject to any magnetic interference. The navigation controller comprises a housing comprising a distinctive visual mark for indicating the front direction of the navigation controller; a GNSS satellite signal receiving module and a visual indication module comprising a circular array of visual indicators evenly arranged in a circular ring and configured to generate visual indication of the specific cardinal direction in relation to the front direction of the navigation controller.
