Hello. I am developing a project, based on balenaFin 1.1 with Raspberry pi 3, working under Ubuntu 20.04. I need to build a workflow for flashing co-processor, The link  
[https://github.com/balena-io-playground/balena-fin-firmata-flash](https://github.com/balena-io-playground/balena-fin-firmata-flash)  
does not work anymore. Maybe somebody knows a way to flash co-processor firmware, that I want to develop in C++?  
Additionally, I installed Simplicity Studio with target board BGM111 BRD4300A, but still i don’t know how to flash co-processor.

Hello,

There is now a balenaBlock that includes firmata, see [fin-block](https://hub.balena.io/blocks?0%5B0%5D%5Bn%5D=any&0%5B0%5D%5Bo%5D=full_text_search&0%5B0%5D%5Bv%5D=firmata). To read more about balenaBlocks in general, please see [Introducing balenaBlocks: jumpstart your IoT app development](https://www.balena.io/blog/introducing-balenablocks-jumpstart-your-iot-app-development/). Does that provide what you need?

Thank you for reporting the broken link. We’d like to fix that. Where did you find it?
