* fix(corvon_v5): drop unused dshot, fix can3 and adc comments
- Remove CONFIG_DRIVERS_DSHOT=y from default.px4board: DShot is not
supported on this board (no IO timer is DShot-configured) and the
docs already state it as unsupported.
- Fix ADC1_IN8 GPIO list comment from PB8 to PB0 (PB0 is the correct
pin on STM32F765; matches GPIO_RSSI_IN definition below).
- Clarify CAN3 comment in nuttx-config board.h: the pins are unused
on CORVON_V5 (no transceiver populated). manifest.c already marks
CAN3 as not present.
- Update corvon_v5_pinout.xlsx 'All Pinouts' sheet so PA7 (HEATER)
and PA8/PA15/PH4 (CAN3 RX/TX/SILENT) read 'Unused', matching the
actual hardware.

* fix(corvon_v5): use MCS Electronics USB VID/PID

inherited from the reference config.

* docs(hardware): rewrite board support guide around real process
The board support guide described a theoretical category-first process that
no longer matches how board support actually happens. Manufacturers were
left unsure of the concrete steps, leading to repeated email requests for
guidance.
Restructure the guide around the actual GitHub-driven flow: build your own
firmware target, reserve a board ID via a PX4-Bootloader PR, provide a
unique USB VID/PID, demonstrate flight with logs, and open the PR. Keep the
support categories as a reference section that explains support
responsibility rather than process.
Spell out that QGroundControl uses the USB VID/PID to identify hardware, and
warn that reusing another vendor's pair causes misidentification. Promote
the ArduPilot board-ID alignment note and point it at the current hwdef
location. Demote VER/REV ID to a clearly-deprecated edge case: explain the
resistor/EEPROM mechanism and its original cross-vendor baseboard/FMU intent,
note the ecosystem has deviated from it, and that Dronecode no longer offers
standards validation. Update the Discord link to chat.dronecode.org.

* docs(hardware): align porting guide with board support guide
The porting guide's 'Officially Supported Hardware' section restated the
board support process and contradicted the rewritten board support guide.
It also told manufacturers to ship hardware to the dev team for port
validation, a service Dronecode no longer offers.
Replace that section with a short pointer to the board support guide, which
is now the single source of truth for the support process, and keep only the
high-level support benefits and maintenance expectations. The technical
porting content (architecture, file layout, host OS config, RC UART wiring)
is unchanged.

* docs(hardware): make board support guide discoverable for manufacturers
The board support guide was only reachable by navigating into the hardware
integration section. A manufacturer browsing the user-facing autopilot pages,
the exact audience, had no path to it, and one of those pages still stated
the obsolete 4-month compatibility commitment.
Add 'how to get your board supported' pointers from the manufacturer-supported
and experimental autopilot pages, the flight controller index, and the
development landing page. Remove the stale 4-month rule from the
manufacturer-supported page. Strengthen the guide's opening paragraph so the
phrases manufacturers actually search appear up front.
Word the links to avoid conflating the guide (how to get a board supported)
with the 'Manufacturer Supported' category (one of several support levels).

* feat(boards): add support for AEDROXH7 flight controller
STM32H743-based FPV / racing flight controller from AEDROX.
Brings up:
- ICM-42688-P IMU on SPI2
- DPS310 baro on internal I2C2
- W25N NAND flash on SPI3 with littlefs at /fs/flash
- MAX7456 analog OSD on SPI1
- 8 motor outputs (TIM1 + TIM8) all bidirectional-DShot capable
- CAN1
- External I2C1 connector for compass / sensors
- 6 UARTs (TEL1, GPS1, RC, TEL2, ESC telemetry, debug console on UART8),
- Two user GPIOs on the M5-M8 connector, VTX power and camera-switch GPIOs,
buzzer on PA7 (active-buzzer transistor low-side switch), battery V/I sensing
via ADC1.
Board ID 1198 shared with ArduPilot's AP_HW_AEDROXH7 entry.
USB enumerates as 0x16D0:0x14FE with VENDORSTR "AEDROX".

* feat(boards): add CBUnmanned H753-Stamp flight controller
* Update board_id to 1302
* docs: update CBUnmanned H753-Stamp board docs
Apply review feedback: correct the I2C bus count (add internal bus),
clarify SPI (IMUs on a dedicated internal bus), note the debug console
alongside the user UARTs, and describe how the board is powered from an
external 5 V supply with separate battery voltage sensing.
Add the pinout image and a PWM Outputs section.

* refactor(boards): rename CBUnmanned H753-Stamp to H753-SOM
Rename the board directory, build target (cbunmanned_h753-som), USB
product strings, docs page, asset directory and pinout image, and the
bundled bootloader binary from -Stamp to -SOM. The hardware is a
System-on-Module, so SOM is the accurate name.

* docs(arkv6x): note bootloader UART7/TELEM1 mapping
The ARKV6X bootloader enables only UART7 (TELEM1), but the existing
serial port table reflects the runtime mapping where /dev/ttyS0 is
GPS1. Users flashing firmware over UART with px_uploader.py hit a
dead end when targeting GPS1 because no other UART responds in
bootloader mode.
* docs(arkv6x): fix uploader script name and add link
Script is named px4_uploader.py in the Tools directory; link to it
on GitHub so readers can find it.
Add an NSH command to format a device with littlefs, analogous to
mkfatfs for FAT filesystems. The command unmounts the mount point,
then remounts with forceformat to format and mount in one step.
Enable the command on boards that use littlefs as primary storage
(airbrainh743 and kakuteh7v2), and document it in the airbrainh743
flight controller page as a recovery procedure for a corrupted
flash filesystem.
Usage: mklittlefs /dev/mtd0 /fs/flash
* boards: corvon 743v1 support (Docs and LED alignment)
This PR addresses #24769 by providing the required official documentation, while simultaneously aligning the board's LED semantics entirely with the PX4 standard.
Key Changes:
- Add complete corvon 743v1 hardware documentation and manufacturer link.
- Fix LED out-of-bounds bug and strictly align RGB states to Pixhawk standard (LED_BLUE=0, LED_RED=1, LED_GREEN=3).
- Update bootloader pin config (hw_config.h) to use red LED for boot/error, and update pre-built bootloader.bin.
