Yes, I saw that note. Which fits in with mine own theory, (I thought I posted early this morning).
By nature of using GO-4 and GO-4 prompting, most people would update their Mavic Airs to .400 using GO-4. With all nagging GO-4 does on updates, easy to see how a pilot could click Update without returning home to read release notes.
Question comes to mind: Did GO-4 prompting to upgrade to .400 start prior to GO-4 itself being updated to 4.2.12?
YES. I was prompted to update the firmware before the update to the app was available. As you said, I updated as soon as the app told me to, and it was done from the DJI Go 4 app and not the assistant.
Then the subsequent reset was done from the assistant v 1.2.3 - this cleared some issues but not all.
The next reset i did was done also done with assistant v 1.2.3, but with the updated 4.2.14 app on the phone.
The next reset was done with the assistant v1.2.4 with the 4.2.16 version of the app on my phone. (keep in mind, i'm android, not IOS. 4.2.16 was released for Android on 5/21/2018)
This last reset/refresh is what has cleared up most of my problems.
So maybe the releases were just plain out of order, and instructions should have been clearer.
A) don't release the firmware until all of the pieces are in place
B) give clear update instructions:
1.) If updating from the App, make sure your app is 4.1.12 for IOS and 4.1.16 for Android.
2.) If updating from Assistant, make sure your version is v1.2.4
C) own the process. Don't force the community to just figure it out.
