Major Updates:
Upgraded the IMU firmware to v3.0, the GCUfirmware to v1.0, the PC/MAC Assistant to v1.8, and the User Manual to v1.6.
Addedsupport for the Ronin Thumb Controller, which can be used to remotely controlthe Roninsmotions.
Addedoptions in the PC/MAC Assistant: Enable Silent Mode, Roll Remote Control Off,and roll axis settings for SmoothTrack. Refer to the User Manual or the
descriptions in the PC/MAC Assistant formore details.
Optimized the Auto Tune Stability function to improve the accuracy of theconfigured stiffness settings.
Optimized the Calibrate System function to calibrate the gimbal faster and moreaccurately.
Changed the way the user enters Briefcase Mode: rotate the handle bar 90degrees so that it is perpendicular to the ground.
Addedto the ability to reset the password of the Bluetooth connection using theremote control: turn on the remote control and the Ronin, then quickly moveboth
control sticks to the inner bottom cornerswithin the first 8 seconds of powering on the Ronin.
Improved protection for the motors.
Fixedissue of the Ronin functioning abnormally when its roll axis is manuallyrotated beyond 90 degrees.
Improved motion control and smoothing when the Ronin resets its position ifbumped or rotated.
Reducedgyro noise.
Notes:
Besure to click Default after the firmware upgrade, otherwise the Ronin may notfunction properly.
Besure to restart and then calibrate your Ronin after the firmware upgrade toprevent it from drifting. Click Calibrate System to begin the calibration, andrestart
the Ronin again after the calibration iscomplete. (During the calibration, it is normal for the motors to power off,and you must not touch the Ronin.)
It isnormal for your Ronin to shake momentarily when the Auto Tune Stabilityfunction is configuring the stiffness settings.
Themotors will exhibit more stiffness for the same stiffness values after thefirmware update. Adjust the stiffness values if necessary. It is recommendedthat you
increase the tilt axis stiffness value ifthe Auto Tune Stability function configures a value below 30.
Thezero value of the SmoothTrack deadband has be adjusted so that it nowrepresents absolute zero, improving the control accuracy of the Ronin whenhandheld
stationary. With the new scale, it ishighly recommended to set the SmoothTrack deadband of each axis to 5 or aboveduring any kind of movement to achieve the
optimal performance.
It ishighly recommended that you adjust the stiffness settings by hand if you are inSilent Mode

Nice upgrade ...... seems to be really  behaving itself .... Although I have found that if you are turning  smooth track "off " using  the latest  android app , it doesn't  work!!!! It seems to stay on . However if you use the remote control to turn off smooth track off (right toggle all the way up ) it works .
Again there are a few functions that are on the assistant app on my mac that should really be on the phone apps as well ( silent mode / roll axis settings etc) ..... adjusting these settings using the mac is a bit of a pain !! However the rig seems so much more stable now. I gets into Briefcase and upright mode really quite easily now .
I'm sure that there will be a app update to fix some of the function issues ....... and if so, then lets hope it can be done without up setting the way it seems to be running on this new firmware upgrade .
Thanks

That's a fantastic update. It really improves the Ronin and makes it even more stable! So according to the release notes it's normal that the Ronin makes quite some noise now when you use Auto Tune stability, is that right? The whole thing is vibrating now. Didn't do that before. But it works great. And I am looking forward to the iOs update with the Silent option.

Solved..... be sure that all two upgrades are done and follow these instructions.... this work for me

Just download the new Assistant in thew Ronins download section. (V 1.8)

http://www.dji.com/product/ronin/download

Turn on the Ronin THEN connect the usb cable, go to the update section and update both the IMU and the GCU firmware after each other (does not matter in what order) and then make sure you follow these instructions after the update:

Be sure to click Default after the firmware upgrade, otherwise the Ronin may not function properly.
● Be sure to restart and then calibrate your Ronin after the firmware upgrade to prevent it from drifting. Click Calibrate System to begin the calibration, and restart
the Ronin again after the calibration is complete. (During the calibration, it is normal for the motors to power off, and you must not touch the Ronin.)
● It is normal for your Ronin to shake momentarily when the Auto Tune Stability function is configuring the stiffness settings.
● The motors will exhibit more stiffness for the same stiffness values after the firmware update. Adjust the stiffness values if necessary. It is recommended that you
increase the tilt axis stiffness value if the Auto Tune Stability function configures a value below 30.
● The zero value of the SmoothTrack deadband has be adjusted so that it now represents absolute zero, improving the control accuracy of the Ronin when handheld
stationary. With the new scale, it is highly recommended to set the SmoothTrack deadband of each axis to 5 or above during any kind of movement to achieve the
optimal performance.
● It is highly recommended that you adjust the stiffness settings by hand if you are in Silent Mode.

Hi, this update caused my Ronin to have roll axis drift. It is fine when I initially balance and calibrate, then after some use it will retain a permanent roll that is off axis. I would like to downgrade to 2.1, please can you assist. Send the downgrade file to jjj@jjjetel.com
Thanks!!

I have no pan control from the remote radio. It will tilt and roll, but no pan. I've tried everything in this thread, but it will not work. The pan channel is definitely working - I can see it moving the channel slider in the Gimbal Assistant software, so I am confident that the radio is communicating with the Ronin. The pan will work when in follow mode (or whatever you call it) - but the radio remote will not do a thing with only the pan axis. I need a solution.

I am also having major issues with 3.0 and need to downgrade. I have a shoot tomorrow and have wasted two hours trying to set up this thing. Calibrating Centre seems to send the entire rig haywire and a complete factory reset has to be performed, with all the loss of my favourite settings.

Could someone from the open offices please email the last stable 2.x solution to me paul AT calamitystudio.com

This is the most frustrating piece of expensive gear that Ive ever brought that doesnt work, DJI RONIN has the WORST customer service from all camera gear companies, Iam embarrassed to use it on set as it never operates properly, how would you feel?, (Sorry for the words Iam about to use) Here is why !! Ive already had to return a faulty Ronin that sounded like a motor bike in 1st gear being thrashed & replaced it by another faulty fuker that drifts. The Ronin is perfectly balance on all axises. The Ronin doesnt know where its centre is. The iphone Assistant App asks me for a password that Ive never entered, I found out how to change it on your blog, Ive download correct software from my Mac hook the usb to the ronin & nothing happens, the blogs are littered with the same request, why not make a video showing how? is that too freckin simple.  Iam like other unsatisfied customers at the edge of there wits after spending thousands of dollars on a heavy gimbal that doesnt work & sits in a store room. Dont know why a company that makes MILLION$ of dollars cant put a video to show us poor suckers how it works. heres an idea, why not be able to change your password for the assistant app from your iphone or iPad. You can change your password for your bank account from your phone why not on the ronin app assistant You guys are so fuckin arrogant. Make a video showing how to connect software for Mac/PC to Ronin units, trust me it wont send DJI broke, but having faulty gear that doesnt work or isnt tested will. & bad customer information will. Its the 29th decemeber, nearly New year, I hope something changes in 2016.

I am pretty new to DJI equipment and am trying to download and install the new firmware update for my Ronin. I have gone to the Ronin downloads page but all I can find are firmware updates compatible with windows operating systems, not mac. (.exe. files)
Can someone please point me in the right direction?

EDIT: I am an idiot and figured it out on my own. Move along....nothing to see here.

Hi,
I just upgraded my Ronin following all instructions (clicked "Default after installing) and all I get now is a "Not a DJI intelligent battery" message: trough the app (both on Mac laptop and Ipad) I can't get the Ronin to work anymore, it looks like the motors won't engage at all.
I also cleaned the batteries connectors and pushed them all the way down, as I read on other threads, still not working; can anyone help? thx

Pls confirm the firmware are all up to date, the latest firmware are GCU1.2, IMU3.0 now
Besides, make sure the battery is tightly inserted into the slot.
At last, you can also use Ronin assistant software v1.4 to downgrade to previous FM to see if it works again.

Dear DJI,
no reply to this Post, no helpful Email for this urgent matter.

The malfunction of the Gimbal with Firmware 3.0 cost me already 200,00 Eur yesterday. Tommorow is the next shooting day of total 3. Where is the support? Do you guys want us to estimate you an invoice for all the hours and work we spent or the rental gimbals we need to rent instead of our own? Read the forum carefully and see how many people have problems now with the new firmware.

So far it would be 600,00 Eur on mid of this week. Do you understand what that means or are you just interested in selling products to get bigger?

My point: This is important! I kindly ask you again to help asap and get in contact with me Benjamin Kurtz to help on monday 7 march 2016 to downgrade Ronin from 3.0 to 2.1. or as you suggest to make it work. We are not kinds playing around. This is serious business depending on reliable equipment. Keep what you promise. In Europe, Asia or USA!

If you want to get in contact directly call 0049 151 212 312 44.

Best regards,
Benjamin Kurtz

Dear DJI,

Same thing happened to me! (updated all firmware and motors stopped working/remote was not working)

Solution: attach a different battery than the one you performed the update with. Once I attached the new battery I re-calibrated and auto-tuned stability and everything works fine. Even the remote started to work again.

hopefully it works for you or others who see this!
