MISO - GP4 CS - GP5 or GP19 CLK - GP6 MOSI - GP7 INT - GP21 or GP22 FC Pin...

ESP32 API commands and registers

Hi, Coming from PICs...I started reading a bit more on the ESP32. It all looks very Alien having spent 10 years only dipping into Mircochips data sheets. The official documents seem to lean a lot on their API. How are API calls made and what is the structure in FC? As I learn to use the various Func...

ESP32 CAN Controller Area Networks

Hi,
The ESP32 has a CAN peripheral. Is this supported by FC.
Do you just use the Component as you would with a Microchip CAN peripheral? Or does it need a ESP32 specific approach?
Thanks, J.

Re: ESP32 Noobs Begineers Guide

Thanks guys. The suggested script, save to a .py file and run from a standard windows command prompt, it runs and closes to fast to observe anything. under 0.5sec. an FC build returns. my guess is that the embedded python 3.8 is not upto date...which is odd as it is the version that installed with a...

Re: ESP32 Noobs Begineers Guide

I've tried another hour of pain...no progress. is there an example supplied with ESP where I can do a test build to prove if that is installed correctly?
That said...I have no idea what I'm doing in the command line. All of the online examples and forums assume you have a knowledge of command line.
