I there, I am not having much luck using the laseraxe software with my engraver as it comes with very little functionality and either times-out immediately or crashes half way through any project only to burn in the same spot for a period of time. Because of this I have done some research into some other software programs available for cnc engravers. For me to use one however (Lightburn), I need to update from the very old 0.8v of GRBL that has come with this laseraxe control board, to a higher version. Was just wondering if anyone has had any success updating the firmware? P.s. I know they state not to flash the board although I am not having much luck with it in its current state and have spent too long trying to get it to work continuously.

Download latest grbl master file. Load in arduino app correctly (use arduino 1.8.10)
Change this line in cpu_map.h (for arduino nano 328p)
#define X_STEP_BIT 3
#define Y_STEP_BIT 5
#define Z_STEP_BIT 7
#define X_DIRECTION_BIT 2
#define Y_DIRECTION_BIT 4
#define Z_DIRECTION_BIT 6
#define STEPPERS_DISABLE_BIT 0
#define X_LIMIT_BIT 9
#define Y_LIMIT_BIT 10
#define Z_LIMIT_BIT 12
run grbl\examples\grblUpload\grblUpload.ino
And Dont forget the z axis invert
