Okay guys...I fixed it! Here's what I did. I attempted to downgrade the firmware to a lower version by use of the SD card. It continually failed. So this morning, I thought I would try one more time. I figured that I screwed up the firmware and it was never going to work again. But when I turn everything on and got connected, the Go app was telling me that I needed to update the firmware. It said the new version, 1.9.20, was available. That is the version that got me into trouble in the first place. So I decided to try it one more time. I downloaded and installed the new version once again. Afterward, everything seemed normal on the workbench. So I took it out in the desert for a test flight. To my surprise, it flew flawlessly. I took it out to 1,350 feet before initiating RTH. It came back home and landed perfectly. I didn't dare go out any farther at this time.
So here is what I think happened. I think that sometimes when you do an update, it doesn't install properly on the drone for some reason. By trying to downgrade, it makes the Go App think that you need to update. Do the update again thru the App. Maybe even a couple of times if necessary. It worked for me.
I always update through the app, have never had an issue doing it that way. Glad you got it sorted. |
