Hi first time Radxa user …
Will soon get my Radxa E52C and want to replace my nanopi R2S plus. Can i use the 24.10 rc2 on it with no issues?
Does anyone have any installation experience to share?
I note its not in the database?

I am in the same case. They have their own image https://github.com/ophub/flippy-openwrt-actions/releases/tag/OpenWrt_lede_save_2024.12 and it’s unclear if we’ll be able to use official openwrt on it.
I am now looking at some doc to install the image. What I’ve found so far is very generic.
Thanks - i will use that as I’m familiar with OpenWRT. Hoping its based on 24.10 and not too buggy.
I was pondering the other options like Ubuntu but have no idea how to configure a router with other OSs.
There is no mainline image that has not yet available, we will try to push the mainline. Before that, we can use some downstream OpenWRT branches.
Thanks for the reply. Can you please explain what you mean by “downstream OpenWRT branches”? Is there a guide available for new users?
Just got the E52C in the post. Compiled the openWRT flippy thing too using AI. It worked! I then wished i just downloaded the image from github. I am looking now and can’t see one specifically though.
The compile took about an hour on Windows under WSL2 ubuntu.
The iStoreOS and OpenWRT are the same at their core. iStoreOS is just a skin with the drivers that make the whole thing work. Looked awesome but happy to wait for openwrt 25.

Can someone from Radxa link to the actual image to use that contains the istoreos openwrt OS? I can’t see it in the Github.
Brilliant hardware 10/10. Well worth buying.
The store is not great for English speakers 
Isn’t that what you get out of the box. Are you saying it’s not worth installing the flippy image?
