DJI's Mini 2 Receives First Firmware Upgrade of 2021 (V01.02.0100)

[The General]

I just noticed that there's yet another firmware update today, so sharing it here.

It doesn't look like it's anything new from the one a few days ago. I'll wait a bit before biting, as I had a wonderful day out with this drone yesterday, so in no rush to fix something that isn't broken.

I'm new here on this forum, and also a new drone owner, so decided to sign up here, as half the questions I was Googling sent me here anyways.

I was surprised getting a new update this fast again, i will wait a little as well!

 

[WooZie]

it seems to fix the orientation of the drone

I am now two (?) updates behind. Not sure about updating my Mini 2 yet since I have had zero problems with how it flies, photo, or video quality.

Did you try to plug into assistant and do a firmware refresh with at least one battery?

assistant doesnt work for firmware yet for the mini 2 its not supported to refresh the firmware's yet, you can only export logs theres no options for firmwares

Assistant doesn’t allow Mini 2 FW to be refreshed or downgraded... don’t ask me why, seems crazy

Not being rude to your post but using it to raise my query:
I don’t understand anyone’s reluctance to update, it’s almost as though it’s technically fashionable or some sort of advanced knowledge that updates are questionable!
We all (most) race to get the latest drone so why hesitant to keep it at the latest level. Eg now you get zoom on pics as well as video, no update=no zoom!
I DO know some occasionally have issues but those are rare indeed.
Thoughts?

Because many times you break what wasn’t broken to begin with. Just because you can doesn’t always mean you should.

Here is how I think about it.
A lot of people don't understand what is actually behind an update to aircraft. An update will fix the previous bug. But will also introduce a new bug when new function is also introduced. It is an endless process. Bugs always win. Just like the survivablity of a virus. You developed a vaccine. It mutates to overcome it and a new version of virus comes in.
For aircraft, stabiliy is everything. Not functionality.
But most consumers are not wise enough to understand the logic behinds this. They think an update is a "delight" or "good" thing when it is actually a very wrong concept.The only right thing to do as a true pilot is when you find out the release is stable enough. Such as people have 50 plus flights with no crashes and time has proven its stablity then upgrade. Your drone should fixiate on that firmware/app release forever unless the next update is a need-to-do basis.

I will update esp since it was released so quickly after the last one as the previous one has to be buggy

 

[TDZHDTV]

Well it hasn’t fixed the controller orientation on the new radar (iOS), and before anyone asks my iPhone compass is spot on.

As mentioned above in this thread, I'm happy to see the addition of 2.7K@60. Was surprised it wasn't included in the first place.

I have this error. Very frustrating as my Mini 2 is brand new and unflown because of this problem. I'm talking to DJI about a fix, but it looks like I will be packing the whole thing up and returning it for repair or replacement.

 

[ICHOTT]

Well that’s about the best NONE answer I’ve ever heard!

of course something does not need to broken to be worth improving. Broken suggests not working, in which fix the effing thing, update improves upon what it was already doing but makes it even better!

Could not possibly disagree with this, as long as any new features are either not wanted or stay unknown because of not updating, user choice rules, it’s the FEAR of updating that I find bizarre.

If you crash and you don’t have the latest firmware DJI is on the clear
