ESP12F

We can flash our loved ESP3D to cheap ESP-12F based serial wifi module (eg from aliexpress ). It contains built in 2-way levelshifter/bi-directional logic level converter. So we can power and use via 5V uart from the 3d printers' motherboard.

    • wiring
  • I used FTDI adapter as usb2serial

    • baudrate: 74880
    • rst cause:2, boot mode:(3,7)
  • Then flash like other esp based board for esp3d
