Hi, we thank you for sharing this information to our co-pilots. Just to add and take note of the following.

·  Restart the aircraft and remote controller after the update is complete.
·  Please note that update may reset various main controller settings, such as the RTH altitude and the maximum flight distance, to default settings. Before the update, take note of your preferred DJI GO 4 settings, and readjust them after the update.
·  If the update fails, restart aircraft, remote controller, and DJI GO 4 or DJI Assistant 2 for Mavic v2.0.4, and retry.

Thank you.

Just got my new Mavic 2 Zoom, updated it a couple of minutes ago and got these errors. Thank you, DJI!

The drone is brand new, just started it and did some tests before the update, everything was ok.

Will try a firmware refresh now, in DJI Assistant 2.

It seems that I am unable to update the remote:
- in DJI GO 4 I get a firmware update error.
- In DJI Assistant 2 I get an "Update Complete" message, but after restarting the remote, it is still running the old version of software and asks again to update. I repeated the update process, and it happens the same(stuck in a loop). After this, I tried to refresh the current firmware with no success.

Also trying to restore the factory settings for the remote, returns an error.

Yes, after reinstalling the latest version of DJI Go 4, everything went ok, although I still don't understand why it wasn't possible to update the remote controller software through DJI Assistant 2.

Hi, sorry for the troubles that it caused. I would recommend updating the firmware of your RC using the DJI GO 4 app or DJI Assistant 2, however, glad that you were able to solve the issue in regards to the firmware update. We would like to apologize for the uneasiness for the firmware update. Thank you for the support.

So I did the update the sensors work again

Only with the precise landing I have not found yet is not available

The sensors always worked, just did not display on the screen until after takeoff in daylight. Precision Landing works automatically, comes on about 10 meters on the way down in RTH, no check box

I believe you have the incorrect version of Assistant 2

The upper left corner,  where it says ASSISTANT 2........should say ASSISTANT 2 FOR MAVIC 2

Once you have the correct version ,  try again

I updated today.  Skipped the previous one.  Brave or foolish,  as maviczoom was working perfectly prior to updating with many flight hours.  Update took less than 10 minutes for both:aircraft and controller via DJI GO APP on my ipad pro 12.9 latest version. I shut off each and restarted and flew 3 batteries with no issues.  The reason I jumped in on this release is I was hoping it would address the range transmission issue with RE goggles.  It did not, range issue with RE goggles remains.  The same issue with goggles existed with my P4P V2 when it came out.  A couple firmware updates later fixed the issue with it.  Bummer.

Hi all.
Just had some flight time with new firmware. Must say Precision Landing is spot on. I tested it in plain grass surrounded by trees. That is without a landing pad. Still landed within 10cm each time.
NOTE: I believe it does require the user to take off vertically for some considerable distance to ensure the M2Z can capture some contrasting images. I tested RTH from within 5 meters of home position. The Mavic 2 (mine is a zoom):
-Flew towards Home Position.
-When close by, it climbed to anywhere between 16 and 25 meters to where it could possibly see some of the nearby trees as well as the grass. (My  return to home alt is 55M)
-Turned to face same direction as take off position
-Descended adjusting itself all the way down
-Landed within 10cm each time on plain grass.


I am very happy with outcome. Would be interested to see if the result would be different had I used a landing Pad with contrasting colours. A mission for my next charged up batteries :-)


Safe and happy flying to all.

10 cm?  I get lucky to get 10 feet away.  I have updated all firmware required and the landings now are worse than before the firmware upgrade.  I usually have 17 to 19 satellites, compass is calibrated, the drone turns to the takeoff orientation at the RTH altitude, then lands 10' away.  I launch from a 4' x 8' sheet of plywood and RTH has never been able to hit it.  I have tried both auto takeoff, and manual takeoff as mentioned in some of the other forum replies.

Someone said there is no 'checkbox' to enable Precision Landing, is that correct?  Are you sure it isn't something I must activate first?

LiteWeight, make sure after your home point is recorded that you gradually ascend STRAIGHT up to about 25-30 ft  before flying off. The M2 remembers the image of the takeoff point and tries to match it when it lands. Your take off point needs to be distinctive and high contrast like from a landing pad.  Take off point cant be plain and featureless.  And yes there is NO checkbox for precision landing, it is automatic.........and only works on RTH when you are greater than 20 meters (or is it feet?) away from the home point I think, something like that........

Thanks Sato, I have tried all that.  I have a blue/red landing pad on my plywood so it should be getting a good reference picture.  Flew 3 times yesterday and I am now getting within about 4' from landing pad, it landed with 2 legs on and 2 legs off of the plywood.  I'm not going to make an issue of it as I land manually most of the time, but seeing the posts on here about PL made me want to try it.  I'm just not seeing the same results.

Interesting. I usually land manually as well but yesterday for fun I spent one full battery doing nothing but precision landings.  I did probably 12 or so RTH precision landings and each time it landed within about 4 inches of the exact takeoff spot but each time it landed it was to the left and back.  Here's whats weird, my landing pad is blue on one side and orange on the other.  I was landing at first on the blue side up and probably 4 out of 6 landings on that side, I got an unsuitable landing spot warning just before touchdown. when I flipped it over to orange I didn't get a single warning LOL.  My M2 likes orange better I guess....

That is interesting!  My landing pad is more blue than red, and it is also landing left and back.  I will try today with it flipped over.  It is just black on that side but will contrast well with the plywood.
