Should you contribute to PX4/PX4-Autopilot?

PX4/PX4-Autopilot has a FoundDev health score of 99/100, which puts it in the active-and-maintained tier. The maintainer team is shipping recently, issues are being closed, and a PR you open this week has a realistic chance of being reviewed.

Last push was 2 days ago — that signals an actively maintained project. New issues are likely to get a maintainer response within days. The project is written primarily in C++, so prior C++ experience will shorten ramp-up.

Licensed under BSD-3-Clause, a standard OSI-approved license — safe to contribute to under normal employer IP policies.
