Are these versions good? Or would you recommend the latest

First of all your Mavic and controller versions should match, regardless of the version.

You're on .0800 now on your Mavic and your controller is on .0550.

It's offering you 01.04.0000 which is the latest.

I recently updated to this with no issues. Some swear to staying at .0400 but you're already way beyond that. Others will say if you're over .0700 and not willing to roll back, you might as well keep current.

Again, I've had flawless performance with 01.04.0000.

Make sure to update your controller at the same time.

No. Your controller and Mavic need to be the same version. You should probably update both to 01.04.0000 to be safe.

Try only updating the RC controller to match the FW on the bird, which in your case is 0800, I find that keeping FW versions matched between RC, Bird, and batteries makes for a much more stable Kit.
You can roll back to 0700 anytime you want. I personally prefer FW 0400.

Doesn't sound like he has a lot of experience with this so I was thinking the safest and easiest route would be just update to the latest on both. He can always go back later when he learns more.

You are correct Robert... I am new to this whole drone field... And I am trying to turn it into a profitable investment I made.

I think I will go to the latest... And roll back if I get any issues.

True, I just recommended it because it would at least make his more reliable with his current setup.

You can do it on your device but the best way is to download and install DJI assistant 2 on your computer first if you haven't already.

Take your time and follow the prompts and allow it to finish all steps. If it locks up, you will be instructed as to what to do.
