I'll check for updates before I leave for a shoot or any flight......

Then when I get to a site, I'll fire up the equipment,  TX,  AC,  then the app.  In the upper left it shows checking version,  Then when I go to start flight, an update window stating an update is needed,  Update or Cancel.....I cancel and the flight screen comes up and shows NORMAL Firmware all good.

When I get home I'll fire all back up....and I get NO update notification......

I fly with no issues .....  What is going on?

Thank you,
Randy

If the message you are getting in the field is "Incompatible Firmware Found - Update Required," it typically means that the firmware of the battery that you currently have installed in the P4P needs to be updated. If this is the message you are seeing, go ahead and do the update - it takes only a couple minutes to update the battery firmware - you will know it is updating because at some point the middle two LEDs on the battery will be blinking. The possible reason you don't see this message at home is that you have likely switched to a battery that has already had the firmware updated.

The battery firmware, if needed, of the currently installed battery gets updated during a regular firmware update. However, if you have additional batteries, you should power down the P4P, insert the next battery and power on the P4P. If you get the inconsistent firmware message on the DJI GO 4 app, then update that battery. Not every firmware update includes a battery firmware update.

Excellent !!  and makes perfect sense!  I did note I was using a different battery at home......so I think that solves it!

I'll get on the batt updates asap.

Thank you, and HAPPY NEW YEAR
