Manta M8P v2.0 support
Is the new Manta M8P v2.0 supported? I see v1.1 is listed but not v2.0

Not until someone submits a pull request for it. I have the manta 1.0 and 1.1 to test, but not the 2.0
Ok thank you
Doing a quick look, the pinout is different and some other changes - so ratos would have to make the changes for that and update all the wiring diagrams
Thanks for having a look. I’m thinking about ordering the card for my first RR build. Maybe I should wait a bit to be sure it will be supported?
I'd just get the 1.1 for now
It's a new layout, new mcu and new pin assignments. It's basically a new board to support.
The v2 is quite a bit faster, but you'd have to go crazy fast for that to be useful in any way.
Thanks for you comments. What is required for RatOS to support it? What’s the usual progress to get it supported?
The most laborious task is creating the wiring diagrams you see here: https://os.ratrig.com/docs/boards/btt/manta-m8p-11
The rest is somewhat simple, it's "just" mapping some pin names and configure the firmware, basically you need to implement these files: https://github.com/Rat-OS/RatOS-configuration/tree/v2.x/boards/btt-manta-m8p-11

Do you think the board will be supported in the near future ? I’m not in a hurry
Currently it's not planned, i'm working on something quite a bit bigger, but if a PR comes a long, then it'll be added.
Thanks for the answer. I’ll just wait and see and if not supported when it’s time to order I’ll just stay safe with 1.1
