# Building Firmware

Tip Most users will not need to build this firmware! It is pre-built and automatically installed by QGroundControl when appropriate hardware is connected.

To build PX4 for this target:

make px4_fmu-v4pro_default

# Debug Port

The board has FMU and IO debug ports as shown below.
