I'm not sure of the separation of manned aircraft and unmanned aircraft in laws abroad. I would not think that shooting at a drone would be as serious of an offense as shooting at a plane. One is property, and one affects lives. Only thing I think could be applied in most cases is negligent or...

Final update: New bird arrived, had 0500 on it for firmware. Hacked and all is good now! Thanks again for the ideas folks.

Its an Amazon purchase so I am going to return

Awesome thanks!! I just had this scenario flash in my mind of opening this new one up and taking it for a fly, then connecting to the internet to upload the logs and have it say “update needed” and brick. I would not be a happy camper to say the least lol

One more question... If I get this new unit, and hook it up to the internet, it will likely check for new updates... Will it still fly if I don't perform them? With my mavic 2 pro, I have older firmware, and it complains every time I fire it up, but it still flies fine... Just dont want to brick...

Well, looks like I am ordering another one... Thanks everyone for the insight!

Confirmed... Can not update because ARB is lower than currently installed :(

Yeah, have to buy the refresh for $300 first... if I am gonna do that I may as well try to unload this one on someone and get a new one... I sent an email to a drone repair shop around here to see if they have any way of loading older software on... If it is just because assistant 2 sees that...

Thanks for all the insight folks. This majorly sucks. A lot of my jobs require me to operate within controlled airspace. I guess it was just habit for me to rip open the box and first thing update everything before starting... I sincerely hope they can hack a later version, or me find a way to...

****... What stops them from hacking a non roll back firmware?

I certainly hope this is not the case. If it is, this purchase it useless to me. I will try after work today, unless someone else can chime in with experience on this. Thanks!

Yup, exactly... And the snarky rude reply I got from their support did not hold out a lot of hope that they would support it very soon.

I dont see the option in there..

Thanks!

Yeah, they are burned out.. I got a new board from someone online, but the lights now work, but getting all sorts of vision sensor errors, even after calibrating.
