ThePX4 User Guide explains how to assemblesupported vehicles and fly drones with PX4.See theforum and chat if you need help!

ThisDeveloper Guide is for software developers who want to modify the flight stack and middleware (e.g. to add new flight modes), hardware integrators who want to support new flight controller boards and peripherals, and anyone who wants to get PX4 working on a new (unsupported) airframe/vehicle.

Developers should read theGuide for Contributions.See theforum and chat if you need help!

The PX4 Dev Team syncs up on aweekly dev call.

Note The dev call is open to all interested developers (not just the core dev team). This is a great opportunity to meet the team and contribute to the ongoing development of the platform. It includes a QA session for newcomers. All regular calls are listed in theDronecode calendar.

Note: This is the source of truth for the active maintainers of PX4 ecosystem.
