QGroundControl v5.1 Stable is available!

The stable release of QGroundControl v5.1 is now available for all platforms.

Download: Download and Install | QGC Guide

See the What’s New page for a summary of user-facing changes since V5.0.

Of special note: the HUD pitch display direction has been corrected in V5.1 — pitching nose-down now moves the pitch indicator down, matching the roll convention. See the HUD documentation for details.

Please report any problems you find on GitHub Issues, noting that you are running v5.1 Stable.

Thanks to everyone who tested the release candidates!

Hi everyone,

First of all, I would like to thank the entire team and community for the fantastic work you do with ArduPilot and QGroundControl. The effort and dedication behind these projects are deeply appreciated!

I am reaching out to report a bug regarding the FPV video stream / HUD overlay on the latest QGroundControl release (v5.1.3).

  • Behavior: The FPV video feed and HUD display work flawlessly on desktop/PC. However, on Android, the video capture device is not even detected / does not appear in the settings, and the video stream fails to function.

  • Environment / Specs:

    • Software Version: QGroundControl v5.1.3

    • Working Platform: Standard PC (Windows) – works with no issues.

    • Failing Platform: Android smartphone (vivo y29s 5g/ Android 16).

    • FPV Video Capture Card: Eachine ROTG01 Pro

The setup and configuration are identical, so this seems to be isolated to how Android handles/detects the UVC capture device in v5.1.3.

Please let me know if you need any additional telemetry, logs, or testing on my side to help debug this issue.

Thanks again for all your hard work!

Best regards,

Ramón
