For V1.6.2 of this board with the ESP chip NOT ESP module. Go to here for details of variants.

This gets you only so far. Missing I2S component, so you cannot use the built in mic of the t-camera.

If, out of the box, your t-camera asks you to SCREAM "Hi LeXin" to no effect, it probably has this app installed

I'm under the "Hi LeXin". And I'm having touble flashing anythin from espWeb or arduino ide, since it has no boot button and holding the RST does nothing. Is this normal? I'm not able to find anything else.
