Why you want to upgrade? My advice stick with Android 5.1 and Kodi 16.1 till they solved the problems with Android 7 and Kodi 17.
You can upgrade to firmware 1.1.0;

To install custom Android 7 firmware on an Android 5.1 Q5 Pro you must first install an official Android 7 firmware.

So, for Q5 Pro:

* First install official 2.0.1: http://www.futeko.com/newforum/index.php?topic=1610.0

* Then install custom CS 2.0.1: http://www.mediafire.com/file/3fd3e4xp6uv8k06/update_Q5Pro_%28WIPE%26update%26themed%29_HMD-2.0.1_2017-01-11.164329.zip

The installation method is slightly different for each, in that for our official firmware you must extract update.zip from the archive but for the custom firmware you must rename the archive to update.zip.

I agree with HereisTom btw, you may as well stick with Android 5.1 at the moment and update when the next Android 7 firmware is released.
