*Firmware
**Board '''YCON2_1.01''' (STM32F103) Original Firmware Dump (region unknown) ---> http://www.eissq.com/ps3_move/files/1e93d333d39a9b0d43a47489503859a2-7.html

Calibration data for sensors (magnetometer, gyroscope, and acelerometer) is stored in the internal flash. This configuration is different for each country (mostly because the magnetometer/compass). When writing a flash dump made in a board for one region... to other board from other region this calibration values will be wrong (calibration data stored at last 0x800 bytes starting from 0x0001F800 ?)

*Firmware dump analisys (wrote by nico @ Kenn Sebesta blog)
 
 Actually, there seems to be 3 vector tables:
 
 8000000 (size 0x0040) NVIC vectors
 8000800 (size 0x0094) Bootloader vectors
 8002800 (size 0x0130) Application vectors
 
 The subroutine at 8000040 seems to call either the bootloader reset vector (at 8000142) or the application reset vector (at 800016E).
 
 The thing is, the shortened bootloader vectors (provided this is actually the bootloader code), does not contain any I2C or UART interrupt vectors, and only USB_LP_CAN_
 RX0 vector seems to contain active code (as far as communication is concerned).
 
 Seems like the CPU and Bluetooth module use some form of UART to communicate, is that correct ?
 ...
 ..
 .
 The first thing to look for is the base address of the BIN file in memory, and further what the memory map looks like. Kenn has already provided this info in his example project, but these can be extracted from the STM32 datasheet also. We know that the first byte of the BIN file maps to address 0x08000000 in memory. We know that internal SRAM start at 0x20000000.
 
 Second thing is to locate the vectors table (see STM32 datasheet) and the reset vector, because it gives you the entry point of the firmware and other useful info. The vectors table is also relocatable in this case (register SBC_VTOR, STM32 programming manual page 134), so there may be multiple vectors tables (and there is).
 
 The vectors table is actually a big jump table. I'm using the following trick to find other tables (be it vectors or switch / case jump tables). We know that addresses are 32 bit (ARM) and highest byte is always 0x08, so we can use a simple hex dump of the BIN file and search using the regular expression "08 .. .. .. 08" (dot meaning any single character). If you use a text editor with search results highlighting (vim for example), then jump tables just catch your eye. There are not so many of them. I used this technique to find the three vectors tables listed earlier. They're distinctive because of their first 32 bit word (0x20000400 which oughts to be the address of the stack top according to the STM32 datasheet).
 
 The vectors table also provides you with pointers to interesting subroutines. If Bluetooth is what you're looking after, just follow IT vector number 39 (USART3) since we know thanks to Kenn that STM32 and Bluetooth chips communicate via UART number 3. Then try to figure out what the firmware should look like: when a Bluetooth output report is coming to the Move, an interrupt is generated in the STM32, the input report is fetched serially from the Bluetooth chip into some buffer (or ring buffer), and the buffer is parsed, either synchronously in the IT handler itself, or a message is sent from the IT handler to some lower priority task. Difficulty is to figure out the relevant tasks and to identify them in the disassembled code.
 
 The jump tables trick can also be used to identify the code that parses Bluetooth output reports (faster). It's very likely that such a jump table is used to call a specific Bluetooth command handler for each Bluetooth command supported by the Move. In that case the jump table is a table of function pointers. The idea is to list the jump tables, then try to find one in the same region as the IT handler. The start address of the jump table should be present in some code that can be traced back to the IT handler. This provides info on how many Bluetooth commands are supported, which ones and eventually what they're doing (after a fair amount of disassembly, I admit).

*Bootloader
**STM32 Arm-Cortex bootloader: http://www.micromouseonline.com/2009/05/08/stm32-arm-cortex-bootloader/?doing_wp_cron=1348086547.3716659545898437500000
**Sony bootloader: ''there are two sections in the beginning that are blanketed by empty flash: one from 0x00000 to 0x006B7 and the other from 0x00800 to 0x027BB. My guess is that the first section is the NVIC table and that the second is a bootloader'' (from Kenn Sebesta blog)

*JTAG programmer
3.3V and http://www.amontec.com/openocd.shtml compatible e.g: "bus pirate" https://www.sparkfun.com/products/9544

*Buses:
**3x USART (bluetooth @ 230,400 baud,...)
**2x SPI
**2x I²C (magnetometer,...)
**1x USB
**1x CAN

*Output
1.6V is the zero output. The accelerometers have a scale of about +0.250V increment for each "g". Assuming that the chip is able to go full scale from 0V to 3V, this gives an absolute output of +-6g (this range is a configuration programmable at factory)

Marked in the plastic as "ext" and refered as "extension connector" in the [[Move Sharp Shooter]] "Instruction Manual.pdf"

8 pins custom made (exact alternative part not found yet)

This connector is used to communicate with the [[Move Sharp Shooter]] gun. The buttons, trigger, etc... of this gun can send signals to the move controller

*Notes
**All the squematics and pinouts in "D-lite MoveCopter manual" and "Kenn Sebesta blog" related with this connector are taken directly from the main board (not from the external connector). The squematics explained in these pages are from an old model with different number of pins (some of them duplicated or displaced). There are at least 3 different board models where this pins are different, but in all models the lines are reordered at the "EXT connector" (and reduced to 8), all models has the same pinout externally explained here in ps3devwiki
**In MoveCopter bootloader several pins of MCU has been remaped, included 3 pins of "EXT connector" (for input/output data), and the 3 RGB lines from the LED + 1 line from the rumble motor (to controll 4 servo motors for the helices of the quadcopter)

 Obsolete not-acurate notes
 The connector is soldered in a "children board" identifyed as "connector board", is connected with the "main board" with a 12 traces ribbon cable (and 2 pressure connectors).
 Only 4 lines of the ribbon cable are used for data signals (protected with a resistor and a diode in the children board) + 1 line for "ground" and 1 line for 3.2volts
 I will upload a complete squematic of this sub-circuit later

"CopterControl bootloader" port for "Move controller"

Is a custom bootloader/firmware for the ARM STM32 microcontroller series. The installation is composed by the "bootloader" (move hardware specific, installed by JTAG) and the "flight firmware" (common for all STM32 microcontrollers, installed by USB)

The flight firmware is intended to stabilish a flying quadcopter using data from position sensors (like the gyroscopes and the 3-axis acelerometers in move)
