We have upgraded today to NuttX 7.18 on PX4/master. This is a major upgrade from NuttX 6, which we had been using for several years almost unchanged. PX4 did grow exponentially in 2016, adding significant resources to our ability to drive the software development and flight testing. This allowed to take on the monumental task of re-validating the operating system. NuttX has evolved significantly in the last years, offering fixes, new functionality and support for new hardware like the STM32F7.

The team has been very active the past month, leading to a record contribution level.
