  • Pay special attention to:
    • TIMER_PIN_MAPPING correctness (PA8 used for timer channel 5).
    • UART / I2C / SPI pin assignments and instance macros for gyro (SPI1), MAX7456 (SPI2), FLASH (SPI3), BARO/MAG (I2CDEV_2).
    • ADC instance and DMA option (ADC1, ADC1_DMA_OPT 8) and default meter sources.
    • Macro consistency for enabled peripherals and inverted signal flags.

File: configs/HDZERO_HALO_MPU6000/config.h:44-56
Timestamp: 2025-07-14T16:16:56.822Z
Learning: For Betaflight board configurations of boards already in production, pin assignments in config.h files reflect the actual hardware design and cannot be changed, even if they present potential conflicts with debug interfaces. The configuration must match the physical board layout, not ideal software design preferences.

Timestamp: 2025-08-22T17:08:23.283Z
Learning: In Betaflight board configurations, OSD feature flags like USE_OSD_SD (analog/MAX7456) and USE_OSD_HD (digital/MSP DisplayPort) are typically defined at build time by the build system, not in the individual board config.h files. Board configs can conditionally define OSD-related settings based on these build-time flags.

File: configs/IFLIGHT_F745_AIO/config.h:31-35
Timestamp: 2025-07-28T16:44:59.686Z
Learning: In Betaflight board configurations, when a board design uses the same physical gyro socket but different sensor variants across production batches (e.g., MPU6000 in older batches, ICM42688P in newer batches), the correct approach is to enable both sensor drivers (USE_GYRO_SPI_MPU6000 and USE_GYRO_SPI_ICM42688P) in the same configuration. This allows runtime auto-detection of which sensor is actually present without requiring separate board configurations for each hardware variant.

Timestamp: 2025-07-03T15:17:30.040Z
Learning: In Betaflight configurations, when a target name suggests dual IMUs (like JHEF7DUAL) but specific hardware variants only have one gyro available, the preferred solution is to use DEFAULT_GYRO_TO_USE macro to specify which gyro to use by default rather than pruning gyro defines or creating redundant configurations. This approach maintains compatibility when the same target is used by multiple hardware variants from the same manufacturer.

Learning: For Betaflight board configuration reviews, the definitive source for validating UART pin assignments is the serial_uart_{platform}.c file in the Betaflight codebase (e.g., serial_uart_stm32h7xx.c for STM32H7xx platforms), not generic MCU datasheets.

Learning: BMP280 and DPS310 barometer drivers in Betaflight do not require USE_I2C to be explicitly defined in board configurations. Out of 264 boards using these drivers, 259 (98%) work without USE_I2C defined, indicating that the I2C dependency is handled automatically by the build system.

Learning: Always verify that the `BOARD_NAME` define in config.h files exactly matches the directory name where the config file is located. For example, if the config file is in configs/AXISFLYINGF7AIO/config.h, then the BOARD_NAME should be defined as "AXISFLYINGF7AIO". This ensures proper board identification and configuration loading in Betaflight.

Learning: In STM32F405 configurations, PB1 typically maps to TIM3_CH4 and PC9 typically maps to TIM8_CH4. These are different timers and do not share DMA resources, so there is no conflict when both pins are used simultaneously (e.g., PB1 for LED_STRIP and PC9 for MOTOR4).

Learning: In STM32F405-based flight controller configurations, timer pin mappings must be carefully analyzed for DMA stream conflicts, especially between motor timers, LED strip timers, and SPI DMA assignments. Changes to TIMER_PIN_MAPPING should include verification that all required peripherals (motors, LED strip, blackbox SPI) can coexist without DMA conflicts.

26-27: BOARD_NAME/manufacturer match — OK

BOARD_NAME matches the directory name and MANUFACTURER_ID looks consistent.


36-41: Baro/flash selections look correct

DPS310 and W25Q128FV are enabled as expected. No explicit USE_I2C macro is required for DPS310.


59-60: I2C2 on PH2/PH3 — OK

PH2/PH3 mapping for I2C2 aligns with AT32F435 support.


61-69: SPI layout is sane; note SWO overlap

SPI3 on PB3/PB4/PB5 shares PB3 with SWO. Fine for production, but debugging via SWO won’t be available.

Please confirm you don’t rely on SWO on this target during bring‑up.

Also applies to: 73-74


89-95: Defaults look reasonable for this target

Flash blackbox and DSHOT bitbang by default make sense for AT32F435.


86-88: Confirm ADC1 DMA option — platform mapping missing in this checkout

ADC1_DMA_OPT is defined as 8 in JHEF435PRO (and many other configs), but this checkout does not contain the platform ADC/DMA mapping (no src/platform/AT32), so I cannot confirm that value 8 maps to a supported DMA stream/channel for the AT32F435 — verify that ADC1_DMA_OPT==8 selects a valid DMA stream/channel in the platform ADC/DMA mapping (e.g., platform/AT32/dma.c or adc.c).


51-57: Cannot verify UART5 PB9/PB8 mapping — AT32 driver missing

serial_uart_at32f43x.c is not present in this repository; configs (e.g. configs/JHEF435PRO/config.h lines ~53–57) set UART5_TX=PB9 and UART5_RX=PB8. Confirm PB9/PB8 are supported for UART5 in the AT32 platform driver (upstream serial_uart_at32f43x.c) or add the driver mapping here so it can be verified.

Timestamp: 2025-07-14T16:16:56.822Z
Learning: For Betaflight board configurations of boards already in production, pin assignments in config.h files reflect the actual hardware design and cannot be changed, even if they present potential conflicts with debug interfaces. The configuration must match the physical board layout, not ideal software design preferences.

Learning: Always verify that the BOARD_NAME define in each config.h matches the directory name it resides in (e.g., configs/AXISFLYINGF7AIO/config.h must have #define BOARD_NAME AXISFLYINGF7AIO). This check is required for all Betaflight board configuration reviews.

Learning: For AT32F435 in Betaflight, UART4 can use PH2 (UART4_RX) and PH3 (UART4_TX) as confirmed in the official Betaflight codebase at src/platform/AT32/serial_uart_at32f43x.c lines 183-212. This is a valid pin mapping for the AT32F435 platform.

Learning: In Betaflight board configurations, OSD feature flags like USE_OSD_SD (analog/MAX7456) and USE_OSD_HD (digital/MSP DisplayPort) are typically defined at build time by the build system, not in the individual board config.h files. Board configs can conditionally define OSD-related settings based on these build-time flags.

Learning: In Betaflight configurations, when a target name suggests dual IMUs (like JHEF7DUAL) but specific hardware variants only have one gyro available, the preferred solution is to use DEFAULT_GYRO_TO_USE macro to specify which gyro to use by default rather than pruning gyro defines or creating redundant configurations. This approach maintains compatibility when the same target is used by multiple hardware variants from the same manufacturer.

Timestamp: 2025-07-28T16:44:59.686Z
Learning: In Betaflight board configurations, when a board design uses the same physical gyro socket but different sensor variants across production batches (e.g., MPU6000 in older batches, ICM42688P in newer batches), the correct approach is to enable both sensor drivers (USE_GYRO_SPI_MPU6000 and USE_GYRO_SPI_ICM42688P) in the same configuration. This allows runtime auto-detection of which sensor is actually present without requiring separate board configurations for each hardware variant.

Learning: For AT32F435 in Betaflight, UART4 supports multiple pin options including PH2 (UART4_RX) and PH3 (UART4_TX) with GPIO_MUX_8, as confirmed in the official Betaflight codebase at src/platform/AT32/serial_uart_at32f43x.c. The AT32 platform has broader pin support than initially apparent from basic searches.

Learning: For Betaflight board configuration reviews, the definitive source for validating UART pin assignments is the serial_uart_{platform}.c file in the Betaflight codebase (e.g., serial_uart_stm32h7xx.c for STM32H7xx platforms), not generic MCU datasheets. These files contain the exact pin mappings that Betaflight supports for each UART peripheral.

Learning: Always verify that the `BOARD_NAME` define in config.h files exactly matches the directory name where the config file is located. For example, if the config file is in configs/AXISFLYINGF7AIO/config.h, then the BOARD_NAME should be defined as "AXISFLYINGF7AIO". This ensures proper board identification and configuration loading in Betaflight.

Timestamp: 2025-06-08T22:02:28.961Z
Learning: The JHEF405PRO board does not actually use dual gyros despite having GYRO_2_SPI_INSTANCE defined in its configuration. It should not receive GYRO_COUNT or other dual-gyro related definitions since only the first gyro is supported.

Timestamp: 2025-07-14T15:41:14.364Z
Learning: In STM32F405 configurations, PB1 typically maps to TIM3_CH4 and PC9 typically maps to TIM8_CH4. These are different timers and do not share DMA resources, so there is no conflict when both pins are used simultaneously (e.g., PB1 for LED_STRIP and PC9 for MOTOR4).

Learning: For Betaflight configurations, blackbox logging via SPI3 and LED_STRIP functionality can be mutually exclusive due to DMA stream conflicts on STM32F4 targets. This hardware limitation should be identified during timer configuration reviews.

Learning: In STM32F405-based flight controller configurations, timer pin mappings must be carefully analyzed for DMA stream conflicts, especially between motor timers, LED strip timers, and SPI DMA assignments. Changes to TIMER_PIN_MAPPING should include verification that all required peripherals (motors, LED strip, blackbox SPI) can coexist without DMA conflicts.

Learning: For STM32F4xx platforms, PB1 pin timer definitions are:
1 = DEF_TIM(TIM1, CH3N, PB1, 0, 0)
2 = DEF_TIM(TIM3, CH4, PB1, 0, 0) 
3 = DEF_TIM(TIM8, CH3N, PB1, 0, 0)
Timer instance 2 (TIM3, CH4) is the correct mapping for PB1 motor control on STM32F4xx platforms as defined in src/platform/STM32/timer_stm32f4xx.c

Learning: In STM32H743 Betaflight configurations, PA15 maps to TIM2_CH1 (timer index 2) as defined in timer_stm32h7xx.c. When used for GYRO_CLKIN functionality, it's recommended to use the macro name GYRO_1_CLKIN_PIN in TIMER_PIN_MAPPING for consistency with other pin definitions.

Timestamp: 2025-09-01T19:58:52.049Z
Learning: For STM32H743 in Betaflight, PB0 has multiple timer options but only timer index 2 provides a non-complementary output suitable for GYRO_CLKIN functionality. The other timer options for PB0 are N channels (complementary outputs) which are not appropriate for CLKIN usage.

Learning: For STM32H743 PB0 in Betaflight, there are three timer options: TIM1_CH2N, TIM3_CH3, and TIM8_CH2N. Only TIM3_CH3 (timer index 2) is suitable for GYRO_CLKIN as the other two are complementary (N) channels. This is confirmed in timer_stm32h7xx.c.

Learning: For Betaflight board configuration reviews, always verify that serial port defines (like ESC_SENSOR_UART, MSP_UART, GPS_UART, etc.) use valid SERIAL_PORT identifiers that match those defined in the Betaflight codebase at src/main/io/serial.h. Common valid identifiers include SERIAL_PORT_USART1, SERIAL_PORT_USART2, SERIAL_PORT_USART3, SERIAL_PORT_UART4, SERIAL_PORT_UART5, etc. Invalid identifiers like SERIAL_PORT_UART3 (should be SERIAL_PORT_USART3) will cause build failures.

🔇 Additional comments (4)
configs/JHEF435PRO/config.h (4)

24-28: Board identity looks correct.

BOARD_NAME matches the directory (JHEF435PRO) and MCU is set to AT32F435G. LGTM.


58-59: I2C2 on PH2/PH3: valid mapping on AT32F435.

Using PH2/PH3 for I2C2 is supported on AT32F435 and avoids contention with your chosen UARTs. LGTM.


85-87: Confirm ADC DMA option.

ADC1_DMA_OPT is 8; please confirm this matches the intended DMA stream on AT32F435 and doesn’t collide with SPI2/SPI3 DMA used by MAX7456/FLASH at runtime.


94-97: Orientation sanity check.

GYRO_1_ALIGN CW180_DEG plus DEFAULT_ALIGN_BOARD_YAW -45 implies effective board/IMU orientation. Please confirm this matches silkscreen arrow and field tests.
