Evening folks! I have just received my Inspire 1 and received the notice on the app that I need to update the aircraft, controller, and battery. I have followed all of the instructions on the firmware download sheet, and I have read almost every single post on this forum from people who have had nothing but trouble installing the updates. I have the "GL###B" version of the controller....if that helps. The following steps are what I have completed to no avail:
1. Bought a brand new microSD card and formatted it FAT32. Downloaded the latest firmware from the DJI website and unzipped the file to the microSD card. Deleted the .txt files per recommendations from other posts. Installed the microSD card into the camera on the Inspire and turned the aircraft on. I get the initial 4 beeps and then.....nothing.....for about an hour. No finishing beeps.....nothing. The rear taillight flashed rapidly during the entire process. BTW - how do I find out what version of firmware is currently in the aircraft?
2. Bought a brand new thumb drive and formatted it FAT32. Downloaded the latest firmware from the DJI website and unzipped the file to the thumb drive. Installed the thumb drive into the back of the remote controller and powered it up per the instructions. No blue light...nothing. The red light stayed lit the entire time until I shut it off. NOTE - the aircraft was off during this process.
3. I have tried to update the controller with the current version installed (1.2.##), thinking I could go to 1.3 from there....no joy. Same for aircraft.
I have contemplated Aviator's process of reseting the RC, but am leery of it.
Does ANYONE...have any idea what I should do next??? I am at a complete loss.
Cheers!
Tim
