    V01.04.0100 who's going to be the first to try

    Update or not?

    I just updated firmware and seem to have no issues. So glad they've sorted it out and my Inspire Pro issues are also gone now.. Even had a semi night fly to check it out. Camera actually worked surprisingly well in the low light levels. Dave

    Update or not?

I have to close the go app and open it again then all is ok. Anyway. My GO 4 app is saying I must update for new geographical zones etc for...
