The first trick is to install micropython firmware to esp32 in windows. you can find firmware for esp32 from here: http://micropython.org/download make sure you down load the right one, I down loaded the non spiram version, the standard one. Then, it comes to how to write firmware to board under windows. I have python 2.7 on my PC, so install esptool through pip seems easy. pip install esptool Then in the folder you put the downloaded firmware, esptool.exe  --chip esp32 --port COM26 write_flash -z 0x1000 esp32-20190113-v1.9.4.bin the it would do the trick...

Before Going on to beaglebone, I wish to test the following: 1. connect a pixhawk telemetry 2 through a FTDI uart to usb to my windows PC. 2. run a MAVproxy on wondows 3. connect mission planner(on local PC) to pixhawk through MAVproxy 4. same as 3, but from another PC in the same network. I have done this with dronekit-sitl on PC, according to the dronekit-sitl paper, connect 2 link to it can cause unstable. For multiple connections, it recommands MAVproxy. When I first started, I have install MAVproxy through windows installer, as well as pip through command line.(I also use python on PC) double installation cause the program to run very strangely, so I uninstall MAVproxy from windows uninstaller, and pip uninstall mavproxy through command line. Then run again the windows installer again from this page: http://ardupilot.github.io/MAVProxy/html/getting_started/index.html MAVproxy starts to show correct information....but I still can't get local or remote GCS connecte...
