NOW THAT IS A FIRMWARE UPDATE!.... now to read it over lol

Looks like LOTS of fixes and tweaks, and that is always appriciated, but I have 3 things...
1:iso locked at 500 when shooting in Dlog... I am curious to the decision for this? Is it for dynamic range? being such a small sensor, I try to shoot at iso 100, 100% of the time..

2: I know its not on the list... but what about lens corrections being added to ProRes footage?

3: (not really related to the firmware, more of the DJI Go 4 app) We used to have the option to change the size of the FPV view, It seems that has been removed.. is that so?

Is my I2 the only one named "orange" instead of "Inspire 2" in the DJI Assistant?

Yes you can change the fpv screen size it took me a while I think 3 fingers an expand . I hope this fixes my turning issues in GPS follow mode as it only turns correctly in atti or camera on free . An I've played with the settings didn't change a thing. Hope this works out. The app is filled with good stuff now .

My Inspire 2 with X4S doesnt work anymore.  The camera wont pan or tilt.  The head of quad is heating up.  Video shaking while quad is on flat table.
My inspire 2 is grounded  till I guesse a patch or new update?!

1: Probably for dynamic range. Sony does the same thing with slog-2 and locks it at ISO 800. It will be interesting to see how the footage looks.

Mine with X4S upgraded and working fine , maybe you should contact DJI customer support ?

DJI, we would appreciate some insight to the decision of locking the ISO at 500 when using DLOG.
Please check the following thread:

Correct me if I am wrong, but that is the lowest ISO... not the only ISO you can select on the sony's?

That is a huge update and it is looking awesome!

Plus, the DJI Go App has been updated with many more items as well

Rich

Not working(((((((((((((((((( master and slave in Russia

Totally! Lets keep pushing for further firmware updates... So many little things that need tweaking

I have unfortunately the same problem as user „dkotinsky“  #6
My Inspire 2 with X4S doesnt work anymore. The camera wont pan or tilt.
Sometimes it happens randomly the Pan and Nick works, but very rarely.
Camera is trembling, if it does not work
Before the update everything worked.

People who use 3rd party Apps like Litchi & Autopilot should be aware that this latest firmware update (v01.0.0240) has caused erratic flight in a number of modes ... they have issued Warnings not to use specific modes in their Apps until the matter is resolved with DJI

I got the fault code "Air Encoder Error (0X100000)" After upgrading.......

Further to my post #15 regarding problems with popular 3rd party apps, can DJI advise when an updated Firmware version will be released?

Next FW updates- when will be released????

Its with Beta testers right now

I just updated the firmware on my controllers, which has restored master/slave functionality to me in Japan (thank god!).

Is it ok for me to hold off on updating the firmware of the Inspire 2 itself?

I would like to continue using LOG as I was previously (at least for a while), to ensure consistency with a project I'm currently working on.

Are there any safety issues with me running the OLD Inspire 2 firmware with the NEW RC firmware?

I have not flown yet but a ground test shows no errors.

I wouldn't start mixing firmware versions. I don't think they do their beta testing mixing old controller FW and new Aircraft FW, or vice versa

#EPICFAIL . . . and I can only blame myself for AGAIN falling trap to DJIs update.  Lost money yesterday and if I dont get this fixed will lose more tommorow !

Thanks, I'll update the air-frame too then to keep it safe.

and a new speed reduction again???

alright...who's going first this time.

Updated to .330. No issues. I notice that the RC firmware has not changed from the last release. Still at .110.

Raven, did you have speed degradation prior to the upgrade and if so, has it improved?

Speed is not an issue, for me. Never tested that, so, can't answer your question.

Thankyou DJI!

As lens distortion correction has been fixed now (allegedly), I can use this drone again for surveying!

Sharif@Forged Posted at 2017-4-13 03:31

not me {:4_142:}

I noticed we still get the Air Encoder Error 00001 when powering up with out a camera attached.  No errors however when a camera is attached.

no speed test yet viper pilot?

John

Haven't had a chance to try a speed test yet.

ISO lock is for dynamic range reasons. This feature is in many pro rigs elsewhere too. There are places in this website that talk about it....
I think the ISO choice was determined by some users wanting to pull out shadow detail with less noise (than if you used 200). You'll lose out in the highlights probably but how often do you want to film clouds?

The air encoder error message means 'no camera signal' ....

Great job DJ !

Particularly like this one:
Added an option to control gimbal pan by holding the C1 button and rotating the control dial in Follow Mode'

And obviously you listened to customers who got spooked by gimbal noises at startup:
Reduced high-frequency vibration after gimbal self-checking.

Definitely!  And also kudos to DJI for 'fixing' what ever it was that was bugging the 3rd party apps like Autopilot and Litchi.  Glad they are usable again.

Upgraded Aircraft and Go4 App to latest new versions - all went smoothly and system working well.
No more nasty noise on gimbal start-up.
I'm happy!
Allan

With this latest firmware I was able to get 106km/h in sport mode. a10km/h tailwind.
