There’s no risk at all. It’s just not mentioned on the CHIRP home page.

Subject: Re: [chirp_users] Programming a BTECH UV-50X2
There's some mention of that model on this page:
Only this models are officially supported:
BTECH
- GMRS-V1
- UV-2501
- UV-2501+220
- UV-5001
- UV-50X3
- UV-5X3
It's your radio, if you want to take the risk using CHIRP on an unsupported radio, go ahead. The worst that could happen is that you convert a functioning radio into a brick of non functioning plastic. You can always buy a new radio.

I just ordered a BTECH UV-50X2 and was going to download the latest version of ChiRP to program it. Looking at the list of supported radios, however, I see the UV-50X3 and the UV-5001 (the predecessor to the UV-50X2) but not my radio. Which model should I select? I suppose I could just try different ones and see which works, but I worry about bricking the radio. Any advice?
