update firmware

[NinjaNut]

Not sure where some of you are getting power up MP first?

That's like saying I should try out my airbag in my car just in case. It's a little toy, try out everything. Jeeezzzzzzzz

Yeah a $2000cdn toy.

This latest update improves camera quality in a huge way! I highly recommend doing it.

Any chance you can show the improvement?

whereas dji recommends to turn on MP first ... then RC etc...

From the Mavic User Manual page 54, "2. Turn on the remote controller and your mobile device, then turn on the Intelligent Flight Battery. 3. Launch the DJI GO 4 app..."

So, the order is: 1. Remote 2. Drone 3. App

Are we talking about 1.3.1000?

I think so. Just like over here: New firmware 1000 for Mavic Pro. Anyone tried it?

The new new firmware sucks I updated yesterday tried going into dji assist it restricted me from my max motor speed.

 

[flyinlow]

I would not update, I am trying to go back one firmware now.

Updated yesterday and flew 5 batteries worth of flights without any issues at all....

I assume out of the box i will be asked to update the firmware is there a difference between US and British firmware

I have immediately updated all updates when available and have never once had any issue.

The newest update .1000 improves the camera greatly!! If you don't mind not having the best video possible i guess go ahead and skip it. I have never had an issue with any update so far. I can say that this latest one did greatly improve the camera!!

Starting the drone first could cause it to go into fail safe rth. That means your mp would take off and go to its set RTH altitude then immediately land again. ALWAYS TURN YOUR REMOTE ON FIRST!!!

Stay on firmware .700 or lower is the only way you can get away from all the restrictions and dji spying "data gathering" nonsense.

Exactly. But some people doesn't seem to mind being restricted. To each their own.

I honestly wonder what kind of "camera improvement" is DJI offering with .1000. The hardware is still the same, so it can only be the software. If that's the case, then I'll still prefer to do a simple post processing (PP) to tweak the photos/videos to my liking. The software on our computer is much, much more powerful than what the Mavic can do.

Doesn't matter the slightest with this tech.

i RTH everywhere why not i am a lazy bastard sometimes,and as for turning of the RC yea i do that too sometimes for fun so go shoot me down coz i like pressing buttons and seeing stuff work.

Turning on remote first is ark age stuff but if it makes you feel safer then go ahead mayb you like pressing buttons too but only in the right order.

Another product of our public education.

The software is programmed to go into failsafe rth if it loses signal. You don't know what your talking about. There's nothing wrong with remaining quite if you don't know bro!

You should listen to your own advice!

Of course it's programmed to RTH if RC signal is lost, if and only if it's already in flight.
It's not stupid, logic has been correctly designed so it doesn't decide to takeoff on its own to "return" to... where it is.

Last night I opened the DJI Assistant, connected the Mavic, and turned it on. Then it started to fly away and attempted RTH..... Of course I am only joking
