📉 Fine for vintage builds, but don’t start a new project with Cleanflight.

Cleanflight was the go-to firmware for FPV drone flight controllers before Betaflight took over. While it’s largely considered legacy software today, you’ll still find it running on older CC3D, Naze32, and F3 boards.

🚁 Getting started with Cleanflight Firmware? Here’s what you need to know.

🔧 Configurator: Use the standalone Cleanflight Configurator (Chrome app) or the newer cross-platform version. ⚙️ Key features: PID tuning, receiver setup, motor control, and OSD configuration. ⚠️ Warning: Most modern hardware (F4/F7/H7) and GPS features (RTH, position hold) are better supported in Betaflight, INAV, or ArduPilot .

If you’re reviving an old quad, update to the final stable release (2.5.0) but consider switching to Betaflight 4.x for better flight performance.
