Battery Firmware Confusing

[Flyin&Smilin]

In my rush to firmware update my dji stuff last month, I never noticed if there was a firmware download for the batteries, did anyone? I dont remember seeing it popup.

Does it download to each battery individually or to the m5p only?

You will need to insert the Batteries one at a time into the Drone to update the Batteries firmware.
Make sure they are FULLY charged when you do it.

ok thanks. And where on the rc2 app do you intiate it?

You do it thru the Assistant software on your PC. Go to the DJI site and get the appropriate assistant, I think assistant 2 and then plug the drone into the pc it should show needed updates, if not simply find the update and install.

It'll pop up when you connect if needed.
Assistant is an option but not required at all.

Each battery needs to be updated. Turn off RC2 and device, put battery in device, turn on RC2 then update firmware; repeat for each battery. Doing this for the A3S and RC2 at this time, Next I'll do it for the RC 2 Pro and Mavic 4 Pro (assuming it also needs it); both have 5 batteries.

Update: Mavic 4 Pro updates needed and in progress. All done now.

Thanks to Flyin&Smilin for being vigilant and makes this known. Have no idea what the battery firmware update does but expect it does something better now.

I thought the assistant was needed for this, I guess not. Thanx.
Posts 5 and 6 would be much less confusing thats for sure!

Yeah, Fly will have a message on the home screen saying, "Inconsistent firmware", and give the option to update for each battery when it starts up.
