Thanks for posting this Benedikt - and I did not know you will make video about my post! :) Now I am sorry if I was not being 100% clear or misunderstood in my post regarding Bwhoop B03 boards - see, those boards (standard and pro) are not coming pre-flashed with Silverware (thanks to glenesis for clarifying that too, down below in comments) but those are first boards marketed as "Silverware compatible" - while both boards have some type of Boldclash proprietary firmware, they can be flashed easily via already pre-soldered connector and with, in that time, silverxxx "stock" B03 Silverware version. Interesting thing is that, after releasing B03 standard board, Boldclash made PRO board (without barometer and without altitude hold function) in co-operation with silverxxx because they wanted it to be fully compatible with Silverware with best possible gyro and other hardware (I know that because they contacted him, me and some other RCGroups users regarding needed hardware to be fully compatible and ready for Silverware, Android telemetry etc.). So, who knows what they eventually put on B03 Pro :) And regarding altitude hold on B03 standard - there is also Silverware version with altitude hold! Yes! :) Modifications were made by RCGroups user mrvanes who did that specially for B03 Standard board. Details and links to that version of FW are also in wiki pages. I also think that somewhere in B03 thread on RCGroups there is original BIN file of original altitude hold firmware taken from original B03 standard board... But I am not 100% sure about that... (I fly only acro Silverware :) )
Hi silverAG I really thought that Ian444 was more instrumental in developing the brushless firmware mods for the SilverWare boards ? Pedro147 from RCG here. I have contacted yets for clarification as I am often wrong 😀
@@MrPnew1 Yets here. Ian444 and SirDomsen have been with Silverware from the start helping in testing boards and modding etc. I think Markus Gritsch was actually involved quite a lot with the 3D stuff and also porting DShot protocol for brushless. As I said in the post on RCgroups, I merely maintained a fork aimed at silverware brushless and incorporated a lot of the features developed by other users into it to tailor the brushless experience. There are other names who have had more an impact on silveware than I have.
@@MrPnew1 and @Vidal: Thank you all for more details and corrections about brushless code. I think it is time to write really detailed history and add it into wiki pages...
The silverware history is even more rich than that as there are more people involved than you mentioned especially in the brushless side of things. It's worth looking at the rcgroups forums if you really want to get a feel for what went and still goes on developing this firmware. I got into it fairly early on and tested d shot code , I was always amazed at how these guys can code and get things working first time usually often without actually having the equipment to test it on.( D shot ESC and s.bus recievers code I tested because I had the parts that they didn't ) Whenever I write code it always takes me a number of attempts because I make mistakes but these guys just nail it. And they are REALLY nice with it too!
Yes - the real heroes of this firmware are its creator silverxxx and then all other contributors - there are lot of people involved in this open source project and I know I should mention either all of them or none of them. My bad that I mentioned only few... :( . But it is possible to check all contributors at gihtub... And maybe it is time to write real, comprehensive and detail history of this firmware? We can add it to wiki pages.That would be nice to have because this is one of great examples how one man project involved into community project driven in various directions by enthusiasts where some of them were without background in code developing but learned to code just to be able to experiment and improve it.
Awesome stuff to know. Thank you for sharing. As far as I know, Bwhoop B03 (altitude hold version) and Bwhoop B03 Pro (non-altitude-hold version) can be flashed with Silverware, but Silverware is not their stock firmware. H8 mini can do some fancy things once it's flashed with Silverware, and there are quite a few nice videos up on CZcams for that little quad. I don't know the H8S, I will look it up now, though! I hope this comment clarifies the Bwhoop information for you. Nite that if you flash the orange or blue Bwhoop B03 with Silverware, your microquads will lose the ability to have altitude hold, and I do not believe that there is any way to flash back to the stock firmware. The BWhoop B03 Pro has no altitude hold function to lose and costs a few dollars less than the altitude hold version, so if you intend to flash a Bwhoop quad, I suggest using the Pro version. Thanks again, my friend! I hope that everyone has a pleasant day. Cheers!
The very first board that i flashed with Silverware is Bayangtoys X9. And it flies great.
I flashed some Eachine E011C and JJRC H67(both the santa claus editions) boards with silverware. And I’m having great fun👍

Yes a comprehensive history would be really nice to read.

Everybody who's watching this video, go to bed. It's almost 3 in the morning.
I just assumed you were familiar with silverware and it's history. I swear by it for micro brushed. Thanks for the awesome input SilverAG.
yeah, seems to safe to assume that. my bad ;)

That was great 😎 Thanks for sharing that Dr. B 😊✌️
Buuff.. Alienwhoop and Notfastenuf for the win..
Hi mate do you sell the alien whoop zero yet ?
