I recently upgraded my RC to firmware v1.6.0
Today it keeps telling me to upgrade again, and it is doing it right now.
But on the screen it clearly says:
"Current version 1.6.0"
"Download version 1.6.0"
Therefore it appears to be trying to upgrade to the same version it already uses!
Anyone know anything about why it would do this?

This can occur if you launch the DJI Go App before starting the RC.

B*****r.
Yes, that's what I did.
It has taken nearly an hour and has only upgraded to 56%. It still tells me not to turn off the RC during the upgrade but the beep is driving the rest of the house mad and it wouldn't surprise me if my wife takes a hammer to the thing before long (she hates it already).
Should I just let it keep trying to upgrade to the same version, or stop it?

Mine only took about 15 minutes when I had an update. I am not sure if you should stop it or not but that is a long time for an update.

What's the upgrade result? And after the upgrade, what's the color of the RC indicator? The information of app version and device model is also necessary.

Paladin - Thank you for replying. I am sorry I did not see your reply until today - I have been travelling.
The result was that the "upgrade" to the RC did complete, the LED on the RC (to the left of the white LEDs showing battery charge) is green when i connect to the aircraft, and I was able to fly the aircraft again. Then today I started a new flight and - AGAIN - I was told I must upgrade the RC - from 1.6.0 to 1.6.0!!! In other words I have now been told by the system 3 times that I must upgrade the RC to the same version that I already have!
This is madness, isn't it?
Now a new problem: I can see the camera image if I select still photos, and I can take still photos, but if I select video the sky is just black and white diagonal stripes. I can't shoot video.
I hope you see this - please do reply again - i won't disappear or ignore you.

You are connected to the internet with the device you are using correct?
Can you post a screenshot of the about page and overall status page that shows RC requires update?
Also, post a screenshot of of the lines you are seeing.
It may just be the over exposure warning.
From the camera menu, select settings (wrench) and disable over exposure warning and see if it goes away.
Also, turn the dial on the top right to change the exposure.

Ken - thanks for your interest.
I disconnect my device from the internet when flying (turn off WiFi) but I can connect it to the internet when I am not flying.
I suppose it is a dumb question, but how do you take a screenshot on a Samsung Galaxy GT19-300 (phone) running Android 4.3?

I would google that but it should be a combination of hitting the up volume button and the power button quickly at the same time.

Connect to the internet while flying and it should update and not tell you an update is required.
See if that does it. The above post right after yours explains how to do a screenshot.
