📄️ 2026.6 Release Notes

Welcome to Betaflight 2026.6! This release lays the first foundations for autonomous flight -- a brand-new Flight Plan tab and the underlying autopilot, both currently simulation-only and intended to mature over the coming releases. Alongside that, 2026.6 brings new platform support for ESP32 and STM32H5/N6/C5 processors (including the first viable C5 development board, NUCLEOC562RE), STM32H757 dual-core MCUs, and the new X-CORE Labs X32M7 platform, switchable battery profiles, optical flow position hold, a fully modernised app now built almost entirely on the Nuxt UI component library, a brand-new pixel-based OSD for Raspberry Pi Pico 2 (RP2350) flight controllers, the first DroneCAN GPS support, expanded MAVLink telemetry for QGroundControl compatibility (now including waypoint mission transfer), native Android firmware flashing over USB, a new in-app Blackbox log viewer, a dedicated iOS app, and a brand-new Betaflight Bridge companion that lets iOS and other Wi-Fi-only devices connect to a flight controller wirelessly, plus a wide range of sensor, protocol, and hardware additions.
