I have a question about Mavic firmware updates. Just for context: I have a Mavic which I ordered & received in July 2017. I did not update the firmware when I received it, nor have I updated the firmware since. Main concern is that I saw various posts from outraged users in the forums complaining about this-or-that with firmware updates, including something about DJI getting more intrusive and forcing internet connections before the drone would fly, that sort of thing.
I'm paranoid about messy updates, and have a very strong "don't fix it if it ain't broke" bias. My Mavic works fine for me, flies great, never had any problems, which is why I'm loath to mess with it on the chance that a firmware update does something I don't like, since I can't go back again, yes?
I'm on the same boat - I have not updated, and will not update my FW. It's working fine as is and do not like the new FW updates "features"
On another forum, I read a post from someone saying he is using the new props with .800 FW without any issues, but I am wondering if in the long run, this might cause possible damage/extra vibration because of older FW has a different calibration for ESC and Rotor...
I placed an order after reading that post, but considering cancelling it now... |
