    Hi, I have an ODESC V4.2, I was able to flash the device via cube programmer but I want to go back to using it as a BLDC controller, I tried loading the ODrive software from the ODrive website but it doesn't work as the device no longer shows up under /dev/

    Suggestions? There doesn't appear to be any place I can get the ODESC firmware which is bizarre.

    Gah, I was using the memory editor and not the programmer in the MXCube software, was able to load the correct odrive firmware over USB. Now I get an annoying message about the device not being authentic when I startup odrivetool since it checks a hash attribute but I searched the github repo and it doesn't appear they poison the source code, I'm just assuming the provided firmware is the same though I suppose I could always compile from source.
