Question:
"Can i directly flash the ESP32-C6 via UART on the 9-inch board? I understand the wiki states the C6 cannot be reprogrammed via the P4, but are there test pads or solder points on the PCB that provide access to the C6's UART lines (TX, RX, BOOT)?"

Answer:

You can upgrade the C6 using the ESP32-P4 CrowPanel:

Additionally, the soldering points are located beneath the screen, making direct flashing difficult.
