Hi,  still having very regular "Weak RC Signal" messages everytime I fly the Inspire Pro X5.  I'm running V 1.8.1.00 firmware on the aircraft,  which firmware should I be running on the R/C transmiter ?  It shows that I have V 1.6.0 on the controller is that correct ?  The camera is on V 1.8.01.00 .  It's really worrying getting the warning messages and occasional break in image so I thought I would try a reinstall of the firmware.
Any info would be great
John

The RC just received a new firmware update, which is V 1.7.40. In addition, please ensure your antennas are positioned for optimal range.

DJI-Jamie,  thanks for the reply.  Can I use the new RC firmware without updating the AC firmware?

Based on the information provided, you would need to update your aircraft to v1.9.1.30, which will change the camera firmware to  v1.9.1.10. If you wish to keep your current firmware, you would stay at 1.6.0.

For your record, here are the current release notes for the Inspire 1 Pro:

To clarify, what version of the GO app are you using?

I'm using GO App 2.8.4,  I really don't want to get in to the GeoFencing thing right now.  My work tends to be very last minute and I follow all the correct procedures,  I do have a CAA Permission for Aerial Work in the UK so I don't fly unless it's safe to do so.  The Inspire flies really well and does everything I ask of it  but it is just the uncertainty that the "Weak RC signal" puts in my mind.
So if I understand you correctly
Aircraft on V 1.8.1.00
R/C on V 1.6.0
Camera on V 1.8.01.00
is the correct combination for now until I decide to upgrade the firmware.

That is correct.

For now, you can try to alleviate your transmission issues by checking your antenna positions and reducing your image transmission quality if it's not already at a low position. If it's not already diabled, you can disable the video caching function or clear any cached video already on the device, as it can be siphoning CPU space.
