Release Notes for this version:

What’s new:
【Ronin-MX - SRW-60G】 Added support for firmware updates
【A3_AGR, N3_AGR】 Added support for ESC updates
【General】 Fixed bugs causing driver installation failure in Version 1.1.0

So will be interesting to see if these drivers install in Windows 8/10 okay.

Yeah I sure hope they fixed it on Windows 10. Man what a pain when I had to use the assistant to calibrate by vision system. Here's the thread about it - solution is post #32: Assistant 2 shows "Frame Alignment Error"

I don't suppose there are newer firmware updates for the MP? If not, I don't think I will get the new DJI assistant for now..

You can download the DJI Assistant 2 app from the Mavic downloads page.

OK please elaborate here for me a bit. This is new....

So I have calibrated compass with DJI Go4.
I have also calibrated IMU on a flat level surface.

The joysticks to controller I have not done that yet. Do I need to?

Gimbal calibration? Is that something I should do and where?

Vision Calibration? I haven't heard of this either. How often does this need done?

Firmware.... I thought all firmware updates with my DJI GO4 app when I connect to my aircraft?

I'm a bit confused now.

Also my app on iPhone is IOS.

Assistant is a toolbox app that goes on your PC or Mac. I've lived w/o it because on the Mac it doesn't talk to the bird. Though someone has suggested I power up the bird before launching the app. Will try one of these days.

A gimbal calibration won't hurt. Takes 1 minute.

Joysticks don't need it until they need it and the procedure is a PITA.

Vision system calibration isn't needed until it's needed. After a hard crash is it advised.

Some prefer doing the firmware updates with assistant.

Don't calibrate IMU or compass needlessly.
