Still no joy even with board plugged into COM5 and that selected as the port. The thing that really bugs me is that even in the full 1.6.1 windows download from git it still doesn't work, it isn't just me trying to add it into an existing Arduino install. Tried the obvious restart of the PC and still nothing.

I could not see esptool also, and had issues with a known good sketch as well, so I renamed the esp8266com folder (to old_esp8266com) and restarted the Arduino 1.6.1 IDE.
esptool now appears.
Think I'll go back to the specal "p1" build...
