Mount your mobile device on the RC and connect the cable.
Ensure you have internet connectivity with your mobile device.
Power on the RC.
Launch the GO App
From the main camera connect screen, press and hold the Graduates Cap in the upper right corner for at least five (5) seconds (seems forever).. and then let go....

If you held long enough, you will see the firmware downgrade menu where you can select the version to downgrade to....

HI Rich
Do you know, or does anyone know if the 32 channel hack for android works with the latest  app.? On the lower channels offered by DJI I have dancing red bars across the board.  I only have channels that are clear above channel 20  I have not upgraded since 1.5  the geo fencing and complaints of lost performance has caused me to contemplate selling my Inspire.  I have not flown it much the past few months, very disgusted with the updating, and the whole situation, My P3A, in my opinion flys as well or better than the Inspire , the Inspire is only 2 mile an hour faster and really is not as smooth as the phantom.   I am using app. 2.42 ,  Have they removed the Geo fencing?  Was that in the 2.6 app.?  Or was the geo fencing in the 1.6 firmware upgrade and if I upgrade am I stuck with the Geo fencing and no place to fly.  The little towns around had dirt runways not used since drug running days we are in no fly  zones,  practically overlapping .  When I looked on the sight when the geo fencing came out it made me physically ill,  I quit upgrading and somewhat lost interest in the whole thing.  Let alone having lost the 32 channels that my inspire had when I bought it I live in the New Mexico mountains in the middle of no where for the most part but all of the forest around me was in a warning zone,  practically the only place to fly was on my own property.  With reduced 8 channels of interference that was in one of the DJI downgrades I no longer trust DJI, Its like dealing with a lawyer or politician.  it would take a miracle of technology to get me back as a customer.   I will stick with 1.5  on my phantom and likely sell my Inspire, I have bought every phantom that has come out and the Inspire, I have thoroughly enjoyed everyone of them until now.  I understand the P4 has 32 channels as the Inspire once had, that I payed for, and now only have because of a hack.  That is absolutely insane that DJI did this and then offer the P4 with 32 channels You have got 2B Sh*&^&*!  me.  It has all become a bit stressful, never knowing what the next downgrade/upgrade,  convolution is going to be.  Should I upgrade?  If I lose my 32 channels I will be done and the machine will be unusable.  Does anyone know if the 32 ch. hack still works with the latest app and the 1.8 firmware ?  and is the geo fencing  as it was in the 2.42 and prior apps or is it insane leaving me with no place to fly as it was in the app after the 1.6 downgrade?
I have been out of the loop for the past few months, and I not sure if I even want to think about getting back into this crap, love hate relationship with a toy

Hey Mtn....Man

Things are constantly changing and I hear what you are saying. DJI removed the 32 channels due to legal reasons I believe. I have not had near the trouble you are describing but and can answer some of your questions. First the Hack file still works with the latest firmware updates but I only use ISO Apple iPad / iPhone. Second, the P4 does not have 32 channels by default only the middle 8. So, not sure where this rumor started.  
Most all of the firmware updates are needed to keep the hardware up to date and bug fixes. the Go App runs all of my aircraft and OSMO nicely. Most all of my settings stay put (but I check them on my checklist every time I fly).

The 32 channel hack only works in custom mode (not auto) so you need to switch it over to custom mode and look for a strong video channel to use. Frankly I did not have any problems where I live with the reduced 8 channel set up. But I thought I would put the file in place incase I needed it for some reason. Most of the time I fly in Auto mode that only uses the 8 channels....

Don't give up on the Inspire 1, I think it out fly's the Phantom easily and especially in the wind. I own the P3P and now the P4 plus 2 inspires   (yah that is a lot of updating!)

Hi Rich

Sorry you are having trouble. I think the best solution is to just lower the landing gear manually. This is done underneath the lower body frame. Using a small flat bladed screw driver reach into the access hole on the underside (see photos) and turn the worm-gear drive by turing the screw driver.  this will take a lot of turing to see movement but it will come down eventually. Once the landing gear is down you can mount the camera and update the inspire 1 using the SD card.     

At least this way you do not have to mess around with the downgrading of the remote.

Thanks for the quick reply Rich

I tryed lowering the landing gear as you suggested. But the Inspire seems to be locked in travel mode.
Powering it only lights up the main indicator led Blue, theres no movement or fan noise from the camera.

I also noticed that my 'downgrade window' displays Equipment:N/A and Frimware Version:N/A.
Unlike your video where it states the versions.

The Inspire has been in hibernation since december, so not sure which fw version i had befor updating the RC, mabye 1.5

Guess the hard leasson here... ALWAYS update Aircraft, befor controller

You put the SD card into the inspire camera with the latest firmware (BIN file) on the chip? then you powered on the Inspire 1 (only the aircraft) right? and you only get the blue LED? Remember do not turn on the remote. You are only trying to update the Inspire 1 using the SD Chip

I thought this would help you get the firmware to load.....

Anyone else comment on this issue?

Jep followed DJI guidelines. RC off - bin file on the formated sd card. No activity from the camera. Inspire powers on normal - cooling fans comming on and the blue led.

Tryed it both with legs fully extented and at travel setting (level landinggear). I even tryed severel times adjusting 1/8th turn on the landgear adjustment screw, to see if there were a sweet spot where it would exit travel mode.

I've writen to DJI yesterday, but haven't head back yet.

So,  did you update the P3 too? The BIN file would be dragged onto the SD card and then you turn on the P3 to finish the update.
Or just the controller?

If you updated everything then, maybe you just need to relink your RC to the P3 instead of downgrading.

Try relinking the RC

Hi 724ready, I have tried this solution from donnie and it worked for me. The RC started communicating with the Aircraft although is still says disconnected but might be due to the Samsung Note phone I am using with it, cause that also happened in the past. I will try tomorrow with an iPad, last time it worked. Here's donnies reply to my question:

"You need to get that RC updated as well, as Goodsoncy pointed out you must have theRC updated for it to work.  If the GO APP failed to update the RC, and you are stuck with the Blue Light on the RC please follow my link.  You will need a simple USB thumb drive  that you will plug into the port on the RC transmitter.  My technique should only be used when the go app method has failed.  Be sure to read my link from top to bottom, then simply download my 1.6 file to the thumb drive and  install to a Clean Formatted thumb drive .

Thanks for the suggestion.

My retailer contacted me. I went down to the shop and we linked a non-updated controller to my Inspire. Entered flight mode, power off - Then, updated like normal. Works perfectly.

Side note: When i linked to my own controller it worked fine. But on the second boot-up the app dispalyed disconnected and i had no connection with the craft.

I opened 'Remote Controller Settings' in the app, and found that 'Set RC Function' was 'OFF'. Turned it to 'Master'. After a complete reboot (RC and AC) it connected normally.

Thought this might be helpfull.

Thanks for all the feed back

Same state and tried the same thing.  App says no firmware to downgrade and Equipment and firmware read N/A.  I guess the Inspire doesn't know it's not in travem mode by mearly the leg positions (a pitty IMO).

I was able to downgrade the RC but only as far as 1.6.  I can link the RC but only get telemetry (no video).  Loading 1.5.8 on the SD card reports that the current firmware cannot be downgraded so I'm stuck.

We need to clarify a couple things to help you.  What version of firmware do you have on the aircraft right now ?1.7 or 1.8  .
Are you stuck because you updated the RC before the AC and  now are stuck ?

If so just rollback to 1.58 on the RC then move out of travel mode.  Then do the update of 1.80 on the aircraft and then update the RC to 1.60

1.5.8 is the last update to the RC.  1.60 is the current  RC update.    If you load 1.5.8 to the aircraft it is not going to know what to do wiht that data.  

You are not trying to update the RC with a SD card and  Thumb drive are you.  It can be done this way but you must have the correct FW to do so.  

Can you list on the about app all of your current versions for the
Aircraft
RC
Camera
Go App.

If you list these, I can help you out on what to do.

Donnie

You have the Inspire 1 correct or is it the PRO

1.8 is for the aircraft only !!!

1.6 is the current for the RC.  They are not updated from the same file.!



1. Downgrade RC to 1.5.8 ( see other forum posts on this) or whatever version you had last to operate the system
2. Turn on AC
3. Exit Travel Mode (!) Hooray
4. Turn off  AC
5. Format SD Card (check for DCIM files first)
6. Put 1.8.00 bin file on it
7. Insert SD Card into Camera
8. Turn on AC
9. Let it go until it goes DD-D-D - about 15 mins
10. Restart AC
11. Start RC
12. Upgrade RC to 1.6

This is from Brad's post  from another  thread but makes perfect sense.

I don't know what version of firmware I have in the aircraft because it isn't being reported but I likely have the latest version as of End of December (that's when I opened the box and tested everything).

When I try to downgrade using the GO app it tells me that there is no firmware to downgrade (same as the images above).  I also tried by loading the firmware on the USB stick (using a 1.5.80 bin) but it tells me the firmware cannot be downgraded.

When I open the GO app I only get details for the app (2.7.2), all other version details are N/A.

Yes, this is a plain Inspire 1

You may have an older version of the RC.  Older than 1.5.  Also the file is special.

Did the file you loaded look like this EXACTLY C1_FW_V01.05.0080  

This file is ONLY FOR THE RC.  I think you are confused ( Often happens ) thinking that the RC and the Aircraft use the same versions of firmware.  They dont.  Some times the version numbers may match but they are still different.  Just like the Advanced and pro have the same version numbers but they are different data files.


WHERE did you get the file ?  If you would like  you can download this one.  Keep in mind the transmitter is off when you load ( then turn it on once it is connected to  rc tranmitter )  this and it may take up to 2-3 min to begin loading. Make sure the SD card thumb drive or whatever is formatted and the only bloody thing onit is this Bin file.  If this does not work, you may have to rollback to 1.3 spencial file.

Please try this file ( below links , they  are  different )  , it is a bit older and may be what originally was on your  RC .   Be sure to format the SD card or whatever device you use as the thumb drive , if you have 1.6 on the RC now this should work. I would try the 1.04 first and see if that matches your  aircraft and get it out of travel mode and then go to 1.5.7 if the 1.04 does not work.
     You have not done anything to the aircraft correct ?  One of these should work .  I am going way back in the vault for these.  
TIPS :  make sure to format the Sd card for the RC.....Rc is off when you load theUSB drive, then turn it on..........it may take a couple min to start, give it time.  It will beep when dowloading and stop beeping and be quiet  when done.........one pilot said the light turned green. ( I am not sure it would turn green )  just wait a bit, and then check for success.

read my tutorial on how to do the RC Bricked so you know the process .        http://forum.dji.com/thread-47572-1-1.html

Once we get the RC rolled back to the last version, we are going to get the aircraft out of travel mode and then load 1.8 to the aircraft and then update the RC.   to 1.8

do not use a MAC to format the SD card .

P3P version 1.8
RC version 1.6
App version 2.7.2

I have the issue of a limp gimbal after 10 seconds of boot up, along with no video feed.
I've tried EVERY solution under the sun, however, I've been trying to downgrade the RC and holding down on the Graduation hat pulls up the menu where is says
"No available firmware for downgrade." Yes, I've reinstalled the app numerous times to be disappointed.
I've tried manual downgrade via formatting a usb stick and putting a 1.5 on there and putting it in the RC, then booting it. Nothing happens, not even after 10 minutes.
It's as if the RC doesn't recognize there is a usb stick there.
Any input?

Hi Donnie maybe you can answer something for me ,  I have the P3P and I recently up dated from 1.6 and jumped straight to 1.8 all I have did so far it's test fly it in the front yard up-and-down forwards and backwards and side to side everything worked good ,  except I might need to recalibrate the Imu.. There was a tiny bit of toilet bowl affect to wear as 1.6 was absolutely rocksolid did not budge .. But my real question is has DJI turned down the output power on the RC or something I keep hearing about this but I don't have any definite proof as I haven't flown my bird other than just in the front yard and if so would downgrading fix that .. Thanks so much

I have had My DJI products for close to a year now and My overall range has not changed one bit.  I go to one special spot and fly the exact same route after each update, I have never lost video or RC signal and any less distance from each upgrade.  I personally get over 15,500 feet of range.  I think when pilots have troubles it is due to the environment where there  flying ,  ie:  a lot of RC interference ( 2.4 ghz - routers, phones )  or poor , antenna technique, weak batteries  etc.  

Just take your time and build your confidence, I have been flying 25 + years of RC, from sailplanes to 1/4 scale , warbirds, helicopters and now GPS guided Aircraft with telemetry and video.  It is the most amazing time to be in RC, you can make this hobby as simple or complicated as you wish.  

That toilet bowl effect can be eliminated by turning down the gains ( If you wish) Remeber the higher the numbers in expo and gain , the more sensitive the Aircraft response  and of course the lower numbers give just the opposite effect, it is up to you to find that sweet spot, I personally find the Gains are to sensitive (  factory settings )  and can cause that toilet bowl effect.  Just lower the gains and expo in 5 to 10% increments and get it to where you like it.  Have fun !


***When making changes to expo and gains the Aircraft - Transmitter - go app must all be on, then after you make the setting changes be shure to shut down in this order so they lock,  1- turn off aircraft 2- turn off  transmitter 3 - turn off   device with go app( I pad or whatever.)  And when firing up to fly: 1-  Turn on Transmitter  2- turn on aircraft 3 - turn on go app last, device can be on but open go app last.  


This is what works for me, I never have problems updating, flying, reception, flight time, problems etc.  



Also ALWAYS  update the IMU, camera gimbal and Compass after a Firmware update, it is MANDATORY for effective flight control.  

Cheers - donnie

Thanks Donnie.. i always do the above mentioned in that order and i have a special adjustable platform to do the calibrations from.. and everything is perfectly flat when i do the IMU etc. but. i had forgot that i had turned down.. or at least i hope it was for the yaw..to get smoother pans.. is there a quick reset back to factory defaults ?  i hope so as i wouldn't remember the settings , also as a side note...  the farthest I have flown was about 1700 ft. out over the ocean off the Oregon coast

    2 T U , There are some resets available on the go app  but not for all, what I have done in the past is load the Go app on another device and then just copy them, or on the Apple I pad's you can simply take a screen shot of each page so you know what the default values or your desired values are, just be sure to go up or down in small increments ( 5-10 % max )  so that you  do not get a  overly  sensitive or mushy aircraft.

Sometimes the easiest way to reset is to just delete and re- install the go app.  Then I take about 15 minutes and re - enter my settings, after you have been at this a bit, you will know by heart the default values and your own "Sweet Spot " settings.

Have fun- donnie
