Arduino for STM32

Hi Everyone,

Its been a little while since play with an stm32 but Ive got a new project... repurposing some hardware

Below is a pic of a LoRa transceiver with an stm32f103 TFBGA (frsky r9mm/mini). I have been able to hook it up to st link and connect no worries. When I attempt to flash the generic_boot20_pc13.bin everything appears to be successful. But after a reset the bootloader appears to be erased. I can also appear to successfully upload a script from platformio, but once again looks like its erased after rst. So obviously Im doing something wrong

Is anyone able to help with some pointers on flashing the bootloader correctly (am I using the correct BL???) and uploading a basic script that would make all GPOIO alternate high/low (Im hoping an LED will flash on the board indicating life).

Cheers
Jye

check if you are accidentally installing something in ram? flash address normally is 0x8000000

Yep, Im using 0x80000000.

After a heap more reading amd checking the data sheet I should have been using genericSTM32F103RB. I also dont need to install the bootloader since Im only using SWD

St-link is currently having trouble writing the other byte and disabling RDP. NFI why but Im getting there slowly.
