[Downloads are available in Releases.](https://github.com/betaflight/betaflight-configurator/releases)\n\nVarious types of aircraft are supported by the tool and by Betaflight, e.g. quadcopters, hexacopters, octocopters and fixed-wing aircraft.\n\n## Authors\n\nBetaflight Configurator is a [fork](#credits) of the Cleanflight Configurator with support for Betaflight instead of Cleanflight.\n\nThis configurator is the only configurator with support for Betaflight specific features. It will likely require that you run the latest firmware on the flight controller.\n\nIf you are experiencing any problems please make sure you are running the [latest firmware version](https://github.com/betaflight/betaflight/releases/).\n\n## Installation\n\n### Standalone\n\nWe provide a standalone program for Windows, Linux, Mac and Android.\n\nDownload the installer from [Releases.](https://github.com/betaflight/betaflight-configurator/releases)\n\n### Notes\n\n#### Windows users\n\nThe minimum required version of windows is Windows 8.\n\n#### MacOS X users\n\nChanges to the security model used in the latest versions of MacOS X 10.14 (Mojave) and 10.15 (Catalina) mean that the operating system will show an error message ('\"Betaflight Configurator.app\" is damaged and can’t be opened. You should move it to the Trash.') when trying to install the application. To work around this, run the following command in a terminal after installing: `sudo xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Betaflight\\ Configurator.app`.\n\n#### Linux users\n\nFirst step is to download the installer and keep it in your working directory, which can be done with the following command:\n```\nwget https://github.com/betaflight/betaflight-configurator/releases/download/10.10.0/betaflight-configurator_10.10.0_amd64.deb\n```\n\nIn most Linux distributions your user won't have access to serial interfaces by default. To add this access right type the following command in a terminal, log out your user and log in again:\n\n```\nsudo usermod -aG dialout ${USER}\n```\n\nPost-installation errors can be prevented by making sure the directory `/usr/share/desktop-directories` exists. To make sure it exists, run the following command before installing the package:\n\n```\nsudo mkdir /usr/share/desktop-directories/\n```\n\nThe `libatomic` library must also be installed before installing Betaflight Configurator. (If the library is missing, the installation will succeed but Betaflight Configurator will not start.) Some Linux distributions (e.g. Fedora) will install it automatically. On Debian or Ubuntu you can install it as follows:\n\n```\nsudo apt install libatomic1\n```\n\nOn Ubuntu 23.10 please follow these alternative steps for installation:\n\n```\nsudo echo \"deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lunar universe\" \u003e /etc/apt/sources.list.d/lunar-repos-old.list\nsudo apt update\nsudo dpkg -i betaflight-configurator_10.10.0_amd64.deb\nsudo apt-get -f install\n```\n\nOn Ubuntu 24.10 and above, please follow these steps, as some deprecated modules are no longer available through apt on this distro:\n```\nsudo apt update\nwget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gconf/libgconf-2-4_3.2.6-4ubuntu1_amd64.deb\nwget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gconf/gconf2-common_3.2.6-4ubuntu1_all.deb\nsudo dpkg -i gconf2-common_3.2.6-4ubuntu1_all.deb\nsudo dpkg -i libgconf-2-4_3.2.6-4ubuntu1_amd64.deb\nsudo dpkg -i betaflight-configurator_10.10.0_amd64.deb\nsudo apt-get -f install\n```\n\n#### Graphics Issues\n\nIf you experience graphics display problems or smudged/dithered fonts display issues in Betaflight Configurator, try invoking the `betaflight-configurator` executable file with the `--disable-gpu` command line switch. This will switch off hardware graphics acceleration. Likewise, setting your graphics card antialiasing option to OFF (e.g. FXAA parameter on NVidia graphics cards) might be a remedy as well.\n\n### Unstable Testing Versions\n\nThe future of the Configurator is moving to a PWA (Progressive Web Application). In this way it will be easier to maintain specially to support different devices like phones, tablets. etc. Is a work in progress but you can have access to the latest snapshot in PWA way without installing anything (take into account that some things don't work and are in development).\n\n- Latest PWA master snapshot of the Configurator: https://master.dev.app.betaflight.com/\n\n**Be aware that this version is intended for testing / feedback only, and may be buggy or broken, and can cause flight controller settings to be corrupted. Caution is advised when using this version.**\n\n## Languages\n\n**Please do not submit pull requests for translation changes, but read and follow the instructions below!**\n\nBetaflight Configurator has been translated into several languages. The application will try to detect and use your system language if a translation into this language is available. You can help [translating the application into your language](https://github.com/betaflight/betaflight/tree/master/README.md#translators);\n\nIf you prefer to have the application in English or any other language, you can select your desired language in the first screen of the application.\n\n## Build and Development\n\n### Technical details\n\nThe next versions of the Configurator will be a modern tool that based on PWA (Progressive Web Application) and uses principally Node, Yarn, Vite and Vue for development and building. For Android we use Capacitor as wrapper over the PWA. To build and develop over it, follow the instructions below.\n\n### Prepare your environment\n\n1. Install [node.js](https://nodejs.org/) (refer to [.nvmrc](./.nvmrc) for minimum required version)\n2. Install yarn: `npm install yarn -g`\n\n### PWA version\n\n#### Run development version\n\n1. Change to project folder and run `yarn install`.\n2. Run `yarn dev`.\n\nThe web app will be available at http://localhost:8000 with full HMR.\n\n#### Run production version\n\n1. Change to project folder and run `yarn install`.\n2. Run `yarn build`.\n3. Run `yarn preview` after build has finished.\n\nAlternatively you can run `yarn review` to build and preview in one step.\n\nThe web app should behave directly as in production, available at http://localhost:8080.\n\n### Android version\n\nNOTE: The Android version is not fully functional yet. It is in development.\n\n#### Prerequisites\n\nYou need to install [Android Studio](https://developer.android.com/studio) as Capacitor apps are configured and managed through it.\n\n#### Run development version\n\n1. Change to project folder and run `yarn install`.\n2. Run `yarn android:run`.\n\nThe command will ask for the device to run the app. You need to have some Android virtual machine created or some Android phone [connected using ADB](https://developer.android.com/tools/adb).\n\nAs alternative to the step 2, you can execute a `yarn android:open` to open de project into Android Studio and run or debug the app from there.\n\n#### Run development version with live reload\n\n1. Change to project folder and run `yarn install`.\n2. Run `yarn dev --host`. It will start the vite server and will show you the IP address where the server is listening.\n3. Run `yarn android:dev` \n\nThis will ask for the IP where the server is running (if there are more than one network interfaces). You need to have some Android virtual machine created or some Android phone [connected using ADB](https://developer.android.com/tools/adb).\nAny change make in the code will reload the app in the Android device.\n\n### Running tests\n\n`yarn test`\n\n## Support and Developers Channel\n\nThere's a dedicated Discord server here:\n\nhttps://discord.gg/n4E6ak4u3c\n\nWe also have a Facebook Group.
