My latest firmware update failed.
I'd tried DJI Assistant 2 on my Mac and the firmware update failed twice at around 78%.
I proceeded to connect the I2 to Go4 on my iPad 4 and the same thing happened. However this time the update appeared stuck at the point of updating the camera - my X5S (this indication was not present on the screen when using Assistant 2). It would show total progress of 79% but camera progress extended from 1-18%, and would then revert to 1 and start again. This occurred three times before a message surfaced stating that the firmware update had failed.
I started again, turned off my I2, and disconnected the X5S and attached my X4S. This time it worked without a glitch.
I expected to have to update the firmware on my X5S, so I reattached it, and to my surprise, no further update was needed.
Bottom line, the Aircraft Firmware: V01.01.0300 glitches when it reaches the X5S. My solution was simply to replace it with the X4S. Perhaps a camera is not required to be attached. I do not know the answer.
Hope this helps anyone who might be extraordinarily frustrated at this time.
By the way, I flew the I2 without a glitch after the update.
I posted this on the DJI forum as well.
