@tim_haynes88

The new controllers will come in multiple configurations

• board only
• encased board with external desktop PSU (supplied or purchased from 3rd party)
• encased board with internal integrated PSU

Any of the existing wheelbases can be upgraded by selecting an appropriate configuration.

There will be a "Configuration Helper" tool available on release to aid the selection process.

I finally upgraded my SW20v3 from v20.11.00 to v21.02.06

Works perfect, cant feel any difference from v20.11.00.
Using Rfactor2.

Is it possible to install this on my SW10C?

Hi,

I'm just curious what you are looking for regarding feedback?
Are there any specific things sim-plicity devs are interested in?
What about the progress for the beta fw? Is it delayed because of too little feedback from alpha testers?

@tjohansen thanks!!

[Sim-plicity Dev]

@ecky

Any & all feedback is welcome.
Too little (or no) feedback is still useful as it indicates sufficient stability to promote the release to the next level unchanged.
This is the case with v21.02.06 which is now "Beta".

We expect v21.07.01 to replace it as the latest "Alpha" release on Monday 8th of November

Will this firmware work ok with a SW13c+ ?

Last time I upgraded (V21.02.05) it didn't work well

[tim_haynes88]
