Porting Betaflight to the Arduino Portenta H7 Board — Part 1

Arduino Australia has generously provided us with an early version of their latest board, the Portenta H7. This is a professional bit of kit with some serious specs (see below). Our mission is to port the BetaFlight firmware across to the Portenta and design the hardware required to produce a drone suitable for school incursions and STEM training.
