To upgrade the F16V5 firmware:
|
|
|
|
|
|
2024-07-29 08:04:23 +00:00
|
|
|
1. Download the chosen F16V5 firmware fl3 file. This file will be named Falcon_16_Firmware_V5_<build>.fl3

|
|
|
2. Either
|
|
|
|
|
- Place the file onto an SD card and place that SD card in the SD slot on the controller and reboot
|
|
|
|
|
the conntroller. When the controller boots it will copy the file into flash ram on the board. Remove
|
|
|
|
|
the SD card when done and reboot the controller; or
|
|
|
|
|
- Navigate to the settings page on the controller web menu and select the "Update Firmware" link and
|
|
|
|
|
upload the downloaded fl3 file. Once done the controller will reboot.
|
|
|
|
|
3. During the reboot the controller will validate the firmware. If it is incomplete or invalid the controller
|
|
|
|
|
will tell you and delete the firmware without changing anything.
|
|
|
|
|
4. If valid the controller will upgrade the firmware in generally the following order
|
|
|
|
|
- CPU 1
|
|
|
|
|
- CPU 2
|
|
|
|
|
- ESP (the wifi module code)
|
|
|
|
|
- ESP Files (the wifi web interface)
|
|
|
|
|
5. Then it will erase the firmware files from flash ram (so it doesnt keep doing the upgrade)
|
|
|
|
|
6. If successful the OLED screen and the status web page should show the correct build number. To check the
|
|
|
|
|
ESP (wifi) updated you will need to access the wifi page. If you dont use the wifi interface then you can
|
|
|
|
|
ignore this.
