I can't re-flash the Crazyradio PA firmware, I am using RFStorm tools on my Mac
When I type make as the wiki saidhttps://github.com/BastilleResearch/nrf ... h-firmware, I got this:

Hi,
What you copy-pasted does correspond to building the RFStorm firmware, this is not what you want to do if you just want to re-flash the crazyradio firmware.

A quick look in the repos shows that they have a tool to flash over usb: https://github.com/BastilleResearch/nrf ... b-flash.py. I guess you should be able to flash the stable crazyradio firmware with that. Be careful since if you flash something wrong you will need an SPI flasher to re-flash the crazyradio (the Bastille project seems to have that in there repos too).

I bought the latest Teensy SPI to flash my Crazyradio PA firmware b/c I "bricked" it trying to learn the mousejack method. I cant find specific instructions on using Teensy to re flash the Cradio PA firmware. Any help appreciated! Thank you in advance.

The instruction seems to be there, in the Bastille's project: https://github.com/BastilleResearch/nrf ... g-a-teensy

i ran the platformio command - the one from the github page
it completed successfully
i plugged the teensy 3.6 into breadboard
i connected pins from teensy <-> crazyradio PA
i ran 'sudo make spi_install'
it returned:
make: *** No rule to make target 'spi_install'. Stop.

im using cinnamon mint linux in virtualbox -- any ideas?

I have never used it myself so I cannot help, maybe someone passing by. Anyway, maybe you should try to ask the project directly, using git issues, if the readme instruction are not working they might be interested in fixing it.

If it can be unbricked per multiple forums across the web, would anyone be interested in exchanging my "bricked" Crazyradio PA for a working version? I'm clearly lacking the technical expertise to unbrick it - and missing all my fun with my Crazyflie 2.0. =(

Id gladly offer a replacement fee!

Thank you, arnaud - I'll give it a try!
