For Manufacturers

The Rotorflight team works with manufacturers on flight controllers for Rotorflight, and welcomes new designs. Get in touch on the Rotorflight Discord or at admin@rotorflight.org.

Reference designs

To be fully supported, a Rotorflight flight controller should follow one of the reference designs. They fix the parts that matter to the software -- the STM32 pin, timer and DMA allocation, and a minimum feature set -- and leave size, form factor and connectors to you. Features marked optional can be left out; everything else must be there.

Following a reference design means your board gets the full Configurator experience -- labelled ports, the Remap FC tab, presets -- without special handling.

Design	Used by
F7A	Radiomaster Nexus
F7B	FrSky VANTAC RF007
F7C	Radiomaster Nexus X / XR

Start with the general FC design requirements, which build on Betaflight's manufacturer design guidelines. Everything is in the rotorflight-ref-design repository.

Board configurations

Board configurations live in the rotorflight-targets repository, and are offered by the Configurator's firmware flasher.

Testing

The team can help test a new design -- electrically, with different receivers and ESCs, and in flight with experienced pilots.
