DJI Fly RC Firmware out today v. 01.03.12

[Mrktn]

Interface improvements, flying guidance and tutorials and larger lettering on critical flying data

this update is also available on both versions of the DJI RC ,i have downloaded it onto my RC and RC2 ,and for me with my old eyes ,the increase in information lettering size is a bonus ,it will not be for everyone,but the fact, that it can be turned on ,or off, in settings ,as and when required is great,

That’s strange. Just checked and my firmware is “up to date” according to my RC and MA2, both fired up. Drone 01.01.1600 and RC 04.11.0400. Perhaps, like Apple with updates, they stagger the release to avoid overload of downloads.

I am another fan of the larger type font on the controller display - nice option for my aging peepers.

well if thats the case are you able to increase the size of the info on the screen ,all i know is the fly app in my Ipad updated to the new version ,so i turned on both of my DJI RC s ,and in the check for firmware updates, both of them had it available to download

Does seem strange because surely the A/C firmware is an 01.01.1600 and the RC is an 04 etc etc. yet the title of this thread is 01.03.12 for the RC?

the problem is that the numbering system for APPs is different,between,IOS and android so they dont always match up ,plus the fact that firmware numbers on different drones are also different
when i updated my Mini3 pro app it was only the RC that updated ,to allow for the new additions ,but my Air 3 also required a flysafe data base update ,as for the title of the thread i did not type those numbers in, so i cant comment on their validity,if i see a firmware update for a drone i own ,then i will investigate myself to see what it entails

Try this - Fly/profile/about/update
This should update the Fly to the latest. It is NOT a real RC or drone update, just Fly.

Can you tell me in settings where the option is to change the font size? I don’t see it.

Thanks!

 

[Mrktn]

I think it’s in the settings and ‘control’ tab, first or second setting down

 

[old man mavic]

@WEdward2 yes as @Mrktn says above it is in control just below units
heading says Display Zoom ,with Standard or Large Text options to choose from

I just downloaded Fly App 1.12.8 to my original smart controller. I received a pop-up window upon booting up the controller. It allowed me to pick the larger text.

 

[stikflote]

How do you download the update to the RC? has it got be set up with the drone ?

 

[CaseyK]

If you have the Smart Controller, go to apps, then Lightning browser, find the DJI download center and find the latest DJI Fly app. You will need to be connected to the net with Wifi.
Good Luck!

 

[stikflote]

Thanks for reply ,i dont have the smart controller

 

[CaseyK]

Thanks for reply ,i dont have the smart controller

Then you must have the DFI Fly app on your phone. Down load 1.12.8 Fly App to your phone or what ever your fly app is on now..

I know what you're not on and that is 1.12.8, but if you want to know, see mobile homer's response.
