Edge16 Developer Documentation¶

Welcome to Edge16 developer documentation.

Edge16 is a TX16S MK2/MK3-only firmware fork based on EdgeTX. This site focuses on building, validating, and releasing Edge16 for RadioMaster TX16S MK2 (tx16s) and TX16S MK3 (tx16smk3).

[!WARNING] Edge16 release firmware is only for RadioMaster TX16S MK2 and TX16S MK3. Do not flash Edge16 artifacts on other EdgeTX radios. v1.0.0-alpha.1 is experimental alpha firmware: it has been maintainer-tested, but users should back up, bench-test, and be ready to roll back.

Edge16 v1.0.0-alpha.1 highlights¶

• Global radio-level top bar setup and compact status widgets.
• Battery monitor/guard with LiPo pack library, telemetry voltage matching, confirmation prompts, capacity alerts, and optional arming block.
• TX16S-focused UI refresh: dashboard, larger hit targets, state indicators, settings search/filter, single-tier navigation, and swipe gestures.
• TX16S color-LCD performance work: async rendering path, font preload, and widget/rendering cleanup.

Read Edge16 v1.0.0-alpha.1 features before testing or announcing a release.
