Community Q&A

  • make clean currently does often run a cmake reconfigure and it might not delete artifacts e.g. simulation parameters

  • Follow-up on the safety switch discussion:
    By default safety is disabled on 1.12 because of reoccurring issues with first time user UX because it was accidentally enabled and because of false disabling caused by bad safety button hardware. We have to communicate this clearly in the release notes and point to the reasons. That said we’ll refactor the IO chip implementation after the release https://github.com/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/pull/16444 and after that the IO button input can be easily made available via uORB and optionally be used for safety actions if a user needs that for a specific use case.
