I don't see why not - the chips are the same, it's just a matter of if you can connect it up right. The USB port on the Microstick II doesn't connect to the PIC32 but to a PIC24 that flashes the PIC32. You'd need to wire your own USB port, reset and program buttons up to the PIC32 to use it.

Oh, and according to the DP32 schematics there's an 8MHz crystal, so you'd want to get one of those (plus caps) in there too or the bootloader won't run.

TBH you'd be better off porting the bootloader (available here: [url]https://github.com/EmbeddedMan/PIC32-avrdude-bootloader[/url]) to suit the Microstick II more specifically.

majenko is right on. With one slight correction - use the bootloader here [url]https://github.com/chipKIT32/PIC32-avrdude-bootloader[/url] instead. (My EmbeddedMan version is no longer up to date)

Oooh, that's good to note - I'll update my bookmark :)
