Hi. This is a question which polarises many, so you'll need to make your own call based on how risk adverse you are.
I am personally of the view that firmware updates are made available for a reason, so will always update when they are released. It's true that some collateral bad code may be released occasionally, or ever that the FW may be corrupted when applying to the craft, but generally that'll be obvious fairly quickly and you have the ability to downgrade if that issue affects you. I've yet to read of a catastrophic issue introduced by a FW update, such as an instruction to 'stop the motors and explode on impact with the ground' being programmed into the RTH button. It's worth also keeping in mind that the P4 FW is now reasonably mature.
So, if you were asking me - yes, upgrade. My only suggestions are to update via Assistant 2, and as soon as the craft is powered on and detected by the app. |
