Recently purchased Phantom 4
I’m using an iPhone 6s  version 11.2.1
Havent done the upgrade to 11.2.5 yet
Running Dji Go4 version 4.2.4
The Phantom is running 01.01.0411
The RC is running 1.6.0

I’ve been out flying 6 times with it already with no issues whatsoever.
Go4 sais there are firmware and upgrades  available for the Phantom and the RC
If everything is functioning like it should, do I really need to do the upgrades ?

Id hate to fix what isn’t broken.

If it’s working fine I wouldn’t personally unless the upgrade brings a feature you must have.

I would read this thread regarding the latest firmware for the drone https://forum.dji.com/thread-131003-1-1.html
It does seam ok but it’s not without it’s reported problems. I would not update the iPhone until DJI have ironed out the compatibility issue.
To sum it up I would hold off just for now.

It appears that you've answered your own question!

The drone is working perfectly, what else do you want?

I have been flying my Phantom since I purchased 18 months ago and NEVER updated the firmware because it just works brilliantly! I see no new worthwhile features in the firmware upgrades, only further restrictions on our freedom to choose how and where WE operate OUR drone.

But most people think that their bird will fly better so can't resist the temptation to play the "brick my drone" game!

Your choice....

Cheers

Stick with what works! You know it makes sense. There are just too many people with tales of woe turning up on the forum, to give one any confidence in "updates"
