If your aircraft flies OK as it is, then forget the updates. The updates very rarely add any features of any great value, so switcxh off app updates in your phone/tablet, ignore the ones on screen and go flying. DJI does not penalise you for not updating, it is your choice.

Well there's certainly no need to be afraid of it, and given that you must have requested the 02.00.0700 Beta then I would update. So far the feedback on this has been all positive. Everything else is up to date so would be a case of reboot all after update completed.

This is the biggie update to replace the slightly dodgy 02.00.0106 on the P4, where many reported erratic flight behaviour, also problems with video stopping & gimbal reset when recording in 4k (where the FPV screen goes completely blank for about ten seconds).

Edit:- I'm running the 02.00.0600 Beta as are many, the .0700 upgrade was by invite only from DJI, so far they've left all the bad boys out

In that case, it is probably a good idea to perform it.

I'm afraid of NOT doing an update.  I've never gone without one.

Curious, did you request that firmware version ? Maybe I should put the aircraft online and see if I can get unload beta 6. Thanks.

Ehmm first thing - yep i requested this update but didn`t except response - today when i saw  a message about firmware update ending 0700 i`ve remind myself this request and felt really happy but after my adventures with dead battery and then first update issues (took me 5 days to reach current version of firmwares adviced on two forums) i`m  usure of it.. Second thing: it`s not my first Phantom. P3 Standard is still with me and i`ve spend a lot of time enjoying this flying camera;) Never had problems with the previous aircraft. I`m surprised that so many things went wrong with P4 but still believe in DJI - high quality and nice support & contact with DJI engineers. I will update this stuff

Just make sure all batteries are well charged, it will stop if the battery goes below 50%.

FW...700 worked great.  When I updated I used assistant 2 and started by resetting to factory and then reflash it with every battery.  Not sure if that was required but it flies like a dream.  No problems updating it at all.

Now i'm confused again because hmm it's hard to say but this beautiful thing didn't reach even 2m above the ground since i've opened the box.. I have a big orespect for this equipment so i don't want to risk. Anyway big respect for DJI staff for being so professional - i'm just preparing first faulty battery for a journey to Netherlands for repair or replacement hopefully;)

They both should give the same result, my personal choice is to use Assistant 2. But if your display has a good wifi connection then it should work equally as well for updating your aircraft to the 02.00.0700 Beta.

So where is this new - hopefully final - version for those who did not sign up for the beta test and still at original version x.106?

I'm glad to be a bad guy, LOL. Some reports about the .0700 show some of the problems I had with the official firmware when descending and braking, I'm in the .0600 and happy with my bird's behaviour. I hope DJI do not use the .0700 as the reference for the future official firmware
