Black Pill board variant - deliberate or copy/paste error?

[pfeerick]

Just noticed when looking at the black pill boards files that the variant is BLUEPILL_F103XX for both of the F103 boards (but the other black_ boards seems fine / are BLACKXXX)... is that a deliberate choice or a copy/paste error? Happy to do a PR to correct that.

Should be the same, the two F1 blue and black boards are exactly the same while the bigger board (F4 blue/black) are different. Really once existed also the F1 red pill but i think that there are not more on aliexpress 🤔

Other than having a different pinout and that the builtin led is on different pins ;) Both the red and blue variants had it on PC13, but the black variant is on PB12 ... just to be different... :confused: But other than that minor detail, they are the same - programming-wise anyway.

UYou are right i forgot about the built in led, maybe it is enough to requiere a different board variant! Maybe would it work adding an extra flag for the built in led?

The variant field for this board is set according to the original value in the framework.
