This is why I want @Badwolf to make the firmware changes rather than me, because otherwise I would have to debug my code changes and the hardware changes :lol: :roll:JezC wrote: 13 Jun 2023 22:27 I think you underestimate the ability of @exxos to make the unthinkable happen while testing new firmware! :)

Re: DFB1X Falcon booster buyers interests
Is that just to share the blame between both of you? Or just to try and pass the mantle of misfortune to @Badwolf ? If it's the latter then @PhilC might be upset at someone else taking over his role...exxos wrote: 13 Jun 2023 22:30 This is why I want @Badwolf to make the firmware changes rather than me, because otherwise I would have to debug my code changes and the hardware changes :lol: :roll:

Well some changes were his idea....

Seems a bit harsh given his recent domestic disturbances (I'm still not over the shock of my son being born over 18 years later)... ;)exxos wrote: 13 Jun 2023 22:41 Well some changes were his idea....

What do you need? Although I should warn you remote firmware writing will be necessarily slow and iterative!exxos wrote: 14 Jun 2023 11:57 Just got the tracking number :D Should have them in a few days times. I'll try and do the edits to the firmware myself :hide:
Change the absolute minimum to get it booting at first, I'd say.

It's only the pinout file which needs changing really and the DSACK removing form the FPU bits. I should be able to do that tomorrow.Badwolf wrote: 14 Jun 2023 19:55 What do you need? Although I should warn you remote firmware writing will be necessarily slow and iterative!
Yep, but that is also absolutely everything to get it working :lol:Change the absolute minimum to get it booting at first, I'd say.
