RT-900 Port Progress
Added 2025-04-17 19:18:42 +0000 UTCHi all
Conversion is still ongoing, it's much tougher than the H3->890 port due to the differences between the M0 and M4, why on earth couldn't Radtel have just used a Cortex M4? Sometimes, I just don't understand how these people think or come to these crazy decisions.
Here's the file converted so far

When you factor remaining source files and code adjustments, I'd estimate I'm roughly half-way through.

Maybe but consider the 890, a far inferior and cheaper radio that uses a M4?? I don't think the price of the MCU is really that important.

But in the end we get a $30 radio that with proper firmware is just as good if not better than a $500 one.
