For most people using the serial panel, they most likely only require default, but I required a number of different ports that were otherwise not selectable without either source or parameter changes.

Pull request overview

This PR enhances the Serial Forwarding panel to let users choose which target serial/UART device to communicate with (instead of always using the default), improving flexibility for nodes exposing multiple serial ports.

Changes:

  • Added a “Target Serial” QComboBox to select the target serial device (Default / Serial 0–5).
  • Wired the selected target device into DroneCANSerial construction.
  • Added a callback intended to update the target device on an existing tunnel when the selection changes.

💡 Add a code-review agent skill or configure MCP servers for context-aware, tailored reviews. Learn more in the docs.
