No, the code is entirely written around the 80C85 CPU that was used in the Poly-800.

It took me several years of part time hobby activity to get the Poly done.  So although I would like to do a full rewrite of the DW8000 or DW6000, there just isn't enough time for it.

Maybe one day I'll get a DW-8000 and have a look again. But my real aim is to do a complete rebuild of the Poly-800 main board using modern CPU like an STM32. But again, time isn't available for me to do that yet.

I just got the joystick replacement tested and working. So the next thing I will be doing is the 1RU rack kit for the HAWK.
