I also noticed the update message, and at first started to the update from the wifi on the controller, but as many have pointed out it's very slow and after it stayed around 28 % for a while I stopped it. I also then noticed the message to the right stating that the "new" version of Assistant 2 for mavic needed to be used.
Found that software easily enough on the Mac. I renamed the older version 2.0 as Old as I still wanted it possibly for other MP2. Remember with Mac OS, the new program if it has the same name will overwrite the old one unless you rename the old program. On install, it wanted both my account and the verification. No problems. MacPro is running High Sierra.
Started up program, and used the cable from the MP2 USB 3.1. Plugged it into one of main ports on MacPro, USB 3.0 and program saw the controller. Started download.
Download went smoothly and much faster, then the transmitting step, both completed. and the controller started up update. Got to 98% and the Controller rebooted, (expected), but it did not power back on. Had plenty of charge. Updated failed. Not sure what happened, but the screen had a retry option and I took that.
This time I watched a bit more closely, the controller got to 98% and did the same reboot, but this time I got a message on the screen about the update being applied, etc. and the controller would be rebooting. The controller screen stayed like this for about 5 minutes, with the message on the controller screen and the Assistant 2 screen showing 98%.
Thought at first I was going to be in trouble, but left it alone.
Finally the Smart controller rebooted and a tiny message came out at the base of the screen, with a blue statue bar. The Smart controller rebooted 3 more times, and finally on the last reboot, with the blue bar wen tall the way to the end and I got a "completed" message.
Double checked on the main screen and confirmed that I was at the latest version 01.00.0530.
I am not a fan of the DJI updates, process always worries me a bit due to issues I had back with my MPP and P4 Pro Vr 2.0. Both had issues with firmware updates but finally got them done. So far the MP2 updates have been OK. The SC update was a bit concerning, as to the number of steps, but it's done.
