* QGC now requires Qt 5.11 or greater. The idea is to standardize on Qt 5.12 (LTS). Just waiting for a solution for Windows as Qt dropped support for 32-bit.
* New, QtQuick MAVLink Inspector. The basics are already there but it still needs the ability to filter compID.
* Fixed application storage location on iOS. It was trying to save things where it could not.
* Basic support for secondary, thermal imaging with video streaming. If a camera provides both visual spectrum and thermal imaging, you have the option of displaying both at the same time.
* Better handling of fonts for Korean and Chinese locales. QGC now has builtin fonts for Korean (where some unusable font was being used). I still need to know if Chinese will need its own font as well.

* ArduPilot: Support configurable mavlink stream rates. Available from Settings/Mavlink page.
* Major rewrite and bug fix pass through Structure Scan. Previous version had such bad problems that it can no longer be supported. Plans with Structure Scan will need to be recreated. New QGC will not load old Structure Scan plans.
