Hi all.
As you may already be aware, Espressif Systems regally move the goal posts.
I have IDF 5.1.3 working as I had an issue with installing 5.1.0 (v5.1 release branch)

I was wondering what your experiences with installing either of the above versions.

For people that have not yet installed ESP32 tool chain, here are the ESP32 toolchain instructions.

I had a bit of a play with 5.2 - but although I could compile from the command line couldn't get it to work from within FC.

So went back to 5.1.2. Which seems to work AOK..

I recently went back to V4.3xx because of issues with V5.x.

The reason that most of my projects didn't compile "a-okay", was because of the Bluetooth that wasn't initialised.
With that knowledge, my projects compile ok at the moment.

I am hesitant to reinstall version 5 because of all the significant problems I've had with it in the past.

So could someone please reassure me that V5.x is better then V4x, and has more possibilities then V4. Or what other reason I should grab to upgrade to V5..x
