I use an ESP32-C3 Super Mini on my Neato Botvac D5 and the default hardware UART pins (GPIO 6 and 7) caused a hardware conflict with the internal flash/JTAG pins, freezing the serial communication. I've changed to pins 20 and 21 and it works ok. I've mounted the microcontroller on a socket, on the top of the robot, in the hole of the bin handle, this way it can be flashed by wire or removed without having to dismantle the robot.

Added a wiring guide for the ESP32-C3 Super Mini, detailing pin connections and configuration for use with the Neato Botvac D5 and an ESP32-C3-Super-Mini positioning that allows the removal of the micro controller witout dismantling the robot.
…guide.
