There was one important fix in this version that was not mentioned in the release notes. The startup sound.

Can you let me know where you get that info from?  I cant see anything on the litchi webside so far

They've updated the warning and it does not mention Mavic/Phantom anymore. Only Inspire still has the problem but I guess it'll be fixed soon too.

One of the new threads on the forum suggests, that they might have decreased the max speed in sports mode.

Can someone check this out?

I made a post back a month or so ago when I went to .400 that the speed wasn't as fast with a good tail wind and the RPM's were way lower and I believe it more so now but I am with the other person that they have the numbers matching up better between acutail speed and on the app.... But I do think they have maybe slacked down when you have strong tail winds to help with GPS loss or some atti issues DJI Mindy said that they didn't limit the speed however I feel with a tail wind once it hits around 40 it starts to dial back the rpm's to just keep its elevation it just don't sound like it's running as hard anymore but that's maybe not a bad thing in the long run

Finished upgrade from .550 to .600 without any problems...
Did a quick indoor flight test (gentle with most sensors off). Mavic behaves at least as good as before.

I´m totally satisfied so far with the mavic. No blurred image, stable gimbal and flights. But only 3h flight time on it..
Will go into speed tests deeper tomorrow, doesn't work so well indoors...

Have a nice one

thanks I did not know ;) Hope they release it soon

With the .600 firmware release,Litchi just announced that all the flight modes are now working again.  So once you get your Mavic upgrade (Inspire still hasn't gotten its updated firmware) you are good to go with all the Litchi features.

My horizon is way off level after upgrading to .0600. Gimbal calibration doesn't help and manuel correction can't be used becaused the horizon is different in normal and Portrait Mode.Anybody else with this problem?

My gimbal roll settings were set to -0.6, I adjusted them back down to 0. I haven't pulled out the level like you to see if properly corrected it.

There is a strange problem with NFZ in this firmware. If no GPS, everything is ok, if good GPS signal, everything is ok, but if you get a weak signal (in rooms, on bad weather,...), the software puts you into a NFZ!.....although there is none for miles.....flying is, of course, not possible in this situation. I again downgraded to .400 ...and still wait for a stable new version, which includes fixes WITHOUT some additional bugs for free! :-(

I was really hoping the new ability to cancel the low battery alert was the one for the battery in the Mavic itself, but I can confirm it is not. However, re-calibrating my gimbal fixed the minor tilt issue I had. So far no issues with the update at all!

Well I've read that in several posts now. Sounds  pretty crappy. From the sound of it you cannot fly indoors anymore?

Received my Mavic yesterday, and after trying to update the firmware today (always fails. iPhone, iPod touch, MacOS, Windows, any of 'em), the gimbal now shows as "disconnected" and the SD card can't be read.  Incredibly frustrating for a brand new purchase.

You say that now... wait until the first problem arises. You'll be ready to spike it into the ground and put in a DJI Care Refresh claim.

Maybe a solution to all this could be (as in many other devices) to download the update onto the sd card and once that is done and the sd card is inserted into the drone the update is executed automatically.

I don't believe this NFZ problem to be related to "real NFZ" at all.
There are posts of people, concerned by this problem, having no NFZ within hundreds of miles.
To me this sounds like "junior programmers logic":
- there is a GPS signal, so we are outside (totally ignoring that you may also receive a GPS signal within a room)
- the signal is not accurate enough to tell the exact position (however you define "exact" in this circumstances, as for version .400 the signal was sufficient, I tested this)
-> so, for safety reasons, we just activate the "NFZ algorithm"

At the moment, I have more than a few satellites locked, the problem (NFZ lock) vanishes...
As I usually do not fly inside rooms, this is a minor problem in most cases. But as I don't know how the Mavic will react, if for any reason GPS signal quality drops, while on a flight, I don't want to try......

My update was taking forever. I cancelled and updated via Assistant 2. Then I had to update the controller, so I went through the regular wifi update and it worked much faster. Not sure why.

Maybe that IS the logic behind it. By making bad or no GPS equal to NFZ one  can NOT block the GPS signal to fool the bird that it is not in a NFZ and therefore fly  there.

For me, i only use the assistant to upgrade once with my Mac book pro but it didn't turn out well as it 'hung' at certain percentage. Nowadays,  I just connect my iPhone to the controller, power up my Mavic and perform the updates...no issue at all...

Damn, I think this upgrade has killed my Mavic. The Upgrade got stuck at 57% all the time - can not revert to older Version and even factory reset doesn't do anything. Do you guys have a hint for me how to get my mavic working again? The upgrade went wrong at least 6 times. Tried everthing to get even .550 back working, but no chance :-(

I have both a Samsung Galaxy S5 (recommended device) and a S7.  The app crashes constantly on both.  Me and 1,840 others in the Google Play store.

Yeah, my app is crashing too all the time since I upgrade to 4.0.6.

I have tried to upgrade my Mavic to .600 via app and the app has crashed multiple times during this progress. Now my Mavic seems to be broken. I can not upgrade or downgrade anymore - it seems to be in an inconsistant status.

Sorry you are having trouble. Assuming that you did not have any failures during the FW update process, try relinking your Mavic Pro to the remote. Follow this video for help.  Otherwise, you may need to refresh the FW update using the Assistant 2 software on the PC'

Please make sure you are using the most current Assistant 2 software on your computer. uninstall the older version first and install the new one linked below

DJI Assistant 2 v.1.1.0-2

I just installed the DJI Assistant you mentioned, but the same issue persists. I have tried to update my Mavic serveral times with no success. DJI Assistant got stuck at 57% and the DJI Go App got stuck at 74%. My drone restarts 2 times and then I get an error message "failed to upgrade"

Hi,
I am having the same issue when attempting firmware upgrade even with the version of the DJI Assistant indicated above. Failed to upgrade multiple times. Now Gimbal says disconnected and No SD Card installed even with card in place. Initial update was started and failed from the DJI Go 4 App.

Same here. Initial Upgrade started with DJI Go 4.0.5 and seemed to be successful. After Upgrading to DJI Go 4.0.6 it tells me FW .0600 is not running and AC needs an update. So I tried again via app with stuck at 74%. Tried again multiple times and got always the same problem. Stuck at 74%, two restarts and no upgrade.

DJI Assistant always get stuck at 57% and causes also two restarts but here I get an error-message and an error-code.

My solution for now: Revert everything to .0550 and uninstalled the DJI Go App v4.0.6 because of the many crashes. I have downloaded the DJI Go 4.0.5 APK and now everything is running fine again.

Really sorry you are having so much trouble. Maybe DJI Ken or Jamie could help with this case. I am not sure why you are getting the error. Normally this procedure works for the stubborn issues

Might try to downgrade the FW like Patman89 did see post #155

Patman89, I am glad you were able to get this back by downgrading the FW. This is the first time I have seen this problem, usually the suggested procedure works.

I hope that DJI mod's   Ken or Jamie can help clear this one up for us

Hi All,

I am having the same problem too.  Tried everything, using DJI assistant 2, via the app, tried rolling back to version .550 and even .0400.  Nothing works, been trying for a couple of days now.

Even when I rollded back to 0.550 and took a flight, the Mavic was not acting right.  Automatic take off when to well above 3m and I struggled to bring it down, hold to hold down on the stick for what seemed like ages before the Mavic descended.  Was really worried it wouldn't stop going up.  After that I brought it in to try and Calibrate it using DJI assistant 2 but no lick there.  Says I need to restart the mavic because a frame alignment error.

Anyone managed to solve any of these issue?

After a firmware upgrade, you should check all your settings, and I mean all of them, do a compass calibration outside away from obstacles then check the screen to make sure everything is ok. This is the screen that shows initially that everything is working as it should. Check you are in GPS mode and have plenty of signal, then takeoff and hover until you are told the home point has been set. Anything less than this and you are taking risks particularly if you are a beginner.
