• I see UART traffic on the programming port, but R11 is a pull-down to GND for IO0. This needs to be a pull-up to 3V3

  • Board mod to follow short term

  • Does not affect programmer if R11 is left unloaded

  • Leave R11 empty and IO0 will pull high via ESP32 pull-up

Flashing the device is a success
