Support for Heltec WiFi LoRa 32(V3) #203

Hi - great project! I'd like to install it to a Heltec Dev Board WiFi Lora ESP32 (V3), do you think there might be a chance to get it running? https://heltec.org/project/wifi-lora-32-v3/

Still get some issues "buffer overflow" while flashing the the esp onboard version and with that not be able to get it running on that device.

I'm sorry. The only way to do that is to set up a development environment in the Arduino IDE and recompile the binaries for that board. I don't have one of those and if I had every development board made I would be sitting in a sea of them. Some vendors do some tweaking to get their branded stuff to work so they may have messed with the bootloader. On paper it is simply an ESP32-D0 and the specs should allow the firmware to flash. Buuuut, I am guessing there are tweaks for the power management and the LoRa radio (which you cannot use anyway).

I would suggest you get an ESP32 board without a LoRa radio in it. You will have success with one of those. I am going to do some research in the future on the mini boards.
