Hi, good evening and cheers to all.
I purchased the Yuneec Q500 4K a few years ago. Due to severe health issues, it sat in my closet for the last 2 years, only getting to fly it twice before having to park it and the hobby entirely. Anyway, I am getting ready to fly it again finally and I am trying to update all of the firmware for the craft, controller, ect.. And to register with the FAA.
I do not know the current firmware version. However, I did discover, like many others, the firmware is gone from the Yuneec website. So, can someone please steer me in the correct direction to A) Download the most current firmware and software (For Mac)? And B) Steer me towards a good "How To" video or guide for the firmware upgrade process?
I realize this is a pretty old drone now. And I am a newbie. But we all have to start somewhere, right? Thanks in advance for any help. I have wanted to fly my drone for years. And now I find out that getting my hands on the most current firmware is not very easy.... Frustrating.
Also, can anyone please let me know what I need to update? For example, is there a separate update for the: Drone, Camera, Gimbal and/or Controller? And does the process require updating in a specific order?
