Hello, When I try to update the yardstick one, I am running into a problem: Something is talking to the RfCat dongle (Modem Manager, most likely). Retrying again after 5 seconds. This can take a minute, please be patient. (error: SerialException(2, "could not open port /dev/RFCAT_BL_YS1: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/dev/RFCAT_BL_YS1'"))

Any help in solving this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, it's probably due to RFCAT bootloader having a different device name, so the device access fails during the update. Workaround and general bootloader update instructions were discussed recently, and can be found here: #93 (second half of the thread).

when you put it into bootloader mode, what shows up in /dev? ls -la /dev/RF*

have you installed the udev rules?
