When trying an example program I get
warning: espcomm cmd: wrong direction/command: 0x00 0x08, expected 0x01 0x08

nine times then

warning: espcomm_sync failed

then hang on Uploading...

Any suggestions?

Maybe it's trying to upload using the Arduino drivers? Have you checked the Board type and the programmer type?

Esptool doesnt seem to be as reliable as I thought. Most of the time if you get errors like this you can get around them by power cycling the board and trying to upload a few times.

Patches to esptool are welcome by the way.
