The source code, and all binary releases, are freely redistributable in any form. Because FlashFloppy includes third-party code under MIT/BSD license, you should include or link to the COPYING file in any redistribution.

This means, for example, you are free to sell and profit from Gotek devices programmed with a binary release of FlashFloppy. However at a minimum you should incorporate or link to the COPYING file on your selling page. For example:

Donations

Although FlashFloppy is Free Software, some people have expressed a wish to make a donation for using and distributing it. If this includes you please feel free to make that donation to a charity of your choice. Money sent directly to me is donated to Macmillan Cancer Support in the UK.

A couple of redistributors have chosen to donate 1GBP/1EUR to charity for each unit they sell. I appreciate this lovely gesture but as with end-user donations it is entirely at their discretion. FlashFloppy will always be Free.
