Build features

Use this page to check whether a workflow is in the build you installed. "Included" means the build contains the command or code. It does not mean that every path passed release acceptance; What has been checked and the known limits say what did.

Build identities

The beta has one version, 0.2.0b1, in two builds from one source commit.

BuildPlatform
Humble buildUbuntu 22.04, ROS 2 Humble, Python 3.10, x86_64
Jazzy buildUbuntu 24.04, ROS 2 Jazzy, Python 3.12, x86_64

The install page lists each build's release name and archive SHA-256. flightops --version prints the version, release and source commit of your install. Install steps are in Installation; changes from the 9 October 2026 test builds are in the release notes.

Feature availability

Both builds include the same features.

Check flightops --help and flightops COMMAND --help on your own install before you use an advanced command.

What has been checked

Before release, each beta build is installed in a clean container on the development PC and checked: the installer and flightops --verify, license activation against a local beta service, the installed commands, and the Scene Workbench under a software renderer. The exact checks and results are kept for each build; ask beta@flightops.dev for them. The known limits list what has not been checked, such as first use by an independent person on another machine.
