Just upgraded without any issues using my iPAD Air 2.
I've always had the tilted horizon issue for as long as I can remember, and it was always very obvious. After upgrading the firmware and flying through one battery, not once did I see the tilted horizon, where normally I'd have to correct for it continuously.... always. This is also without doing an IMU calibration. Just a straight update, nothing more and everything I had an issue with seems to be fixed.
So, has this issue being finally resolved. It seems so..!!!! ...but I'm so shocked by this that I won't be fully convinced until I fly a few more times and see how it performs ongoing.
My upgrade procedure was as follows.
Turned on my Phantom 4
Turned on my Controller, and launched DJI GO
Touch the red triangle in the status window to select the option to Update the Controller firmware.
Controller Updated perfectly.
Turned off Controller.
Exit DJI GO and forced shut.
Turned off Phantom 4
Turned on Phantom 4
Turned on Controller
Launched DJI Go.
An option to update the Phantom 4 firmware was presented, so I selected that.
A message telling me to connect my Tablet to the drone appeared, so leaving the controller on, I disconnected my iPad and connected it direct to the phantom using the official cable for doing direct connections.
An option to download the firmware was then displayed on the iPad.
Started the download....... success.
Started the upgrade..... towards the end a message popped up a 3 times saying my device was not compatible with the phantom or something similar to that, DO NOTHING. Just ignore that. The message goes away itself after a few seconds so you DO NOT need to press OK.
Just do nothing until the firmware goes to 100% and says success.
That's it really. Takes about 15 minutes in total to upgrade the phantom, and probably 5 for the controller. |
