We have SimonK firmware of some revision or another from what I've gleaned here and the 3DR GitHub.
It looks like 3DR's snapshot of the SimonK firmware GitHub repo is dated has not seen a commit since 2015, whereas the upstream SimonK GitHub repo has seen a commit as recently as this January, with many of the files having revision dates three years more recent than the snapshot in the 3DR/Open-Solo GitHub.
My question is this:
Can we flash the ESC firmware? Has anyone done it to get updates on the ESCs?
Has anyone tried cross-flashing them to blheli? I've seen lots of evidence from miniquadtestbench that supports that blheli/oneshot can make big gains in thrust and power efficiency, even between recent revisions of the firmware. blheli is also under absurdly heavy development, having seen a commit as recent as an hour ago at the time of writing.
We're pretty out of date to say the least...
Or am I completely off base here?
