Using the ESP32 for processing data

Official Hardware UNO Family UNO R4 WiFi

Hi Everyone,
I was recently gifted an uno R4 Wifi. I will not be using the WiFi capabilities of the ESP32.

can I use it to process data being collected by the main microcontroller? And is it possible to employ free RTOS if in case I want to run more complex calculations like a PID for a drone?

You do not have to use the wifi. It will do just fine processing data.

Came up a few months ago: How can I use the ESP32-S3-MINI-1 on the Uno R4 Wifi?

Seems iffy.
