okay apparently my issue was a bad driver for the silicon labs cpxxx chip, installed a new driver and it seems to work now.

@firehopper never mind, had wrong joyc firmware loaded.. all good now.

I just go my rover c and joyc .. loaded the firmware on each one, but Cant figure out how to get the 2 to talk to each other
says hold a5, which button is that? please help

@hague that fixed it, thanks!

I dont know if this is the right place to post it but.

I downloaded the newest files for joyC and roverC due to the fact my roverC and joyC should be arriving soon, roverC does compile. joyC does not. the errors I get.

let me know what I need to do to fix it? there doesnt seem to be a update for the m5stickC lib so not sure what else to do..
