Open‐Source
The development of the Vortex would not have been possible without the effort of a large
team of individuals who invested in the open source flight controller software that running on
the Vortex.
The variant of the open source flight controller firmware that we chose to power the Vortex is
Betaflight, mainly due to it’s solid support of the OneShot ESC control protocol.
Since the OSD firmware needs an intimate knowledge of the flight controller API, care must be
taken when installing updated Betaflight builds

.
The ImmersionRC team may not have support for Beta, and recently released Cleanflight
builds the day they are released, but we are committed to keep up with changes.
Check the ImmersionRC Vortex product page for compatibility information.
NOTE: Do not install new Cleanflight builds, nor builds of other Flight Controller software,
without first verifying that they are supported by the Vortex OSD.
Cleanflight Configurator Connection
To hook up the ​ Cleanflight Configurator ​ , hook up a Personal Computer via a standard
Micro-USB cable, to the connector on the back of the Vortex.
Be aware that making certain changes via the configurator may break compatibility with the
Vortex OSD. One example would be changing the channel order, which is set by the wizard.
Re-running the Vortex setup wizard will reset the Cleanflight configuration to defaults.
NOTE: When Vortex will detect a new flight-controller version, it will automatically restart
in TX Wizard mode.
