You should look for your own interest. No msgs, no orange tail lights is not = no compas problem
In the log file you find any error, the ST16 msg/ LED tail light only starts, when it was too much, too late ...
Same for SAT info, when your ST16 says you have 12 SAT, that is not the right info about the quality,
this is the reason, why you can lose GPS with 12, 14, 16 SAT ...
You can always check the available sats at the place you intend to fly by using the software here,
Location Lookup
it is FREE, you could put the bird in the air with enough sats, then 5 minutes into your flight they can change drastically, believe me I have used this for over 3 years it is reliable.
Anthony, I guess we are the lucky ones who have had no issues with the last two UPDATES...........I have to issues to report.just back from flying the upgrade. i didnt have compass issues with the last but have a job tomorrow and didn't want to chance it rearing its ugly head then (still a crap shoot to upgrade the day before a shoot)
Upgrade went smooth, nothing to rebind since the 16 wasn't upgraded. I always recal after an update, and did accelerometer too this time.
flew as expected, not sure what was changed....but if there was a glitchy bit of coding that has been repaired then all the better....
I'd love to hear from someone that was having the compass issue with the 9-2-16 firmware...
peace,
Anthony
If true, I can't wait to install it then!I think this update fixes the bug where the bird looses wifi while folding up the legs.
Very slick...was not aware of this site. Thank you!You can always check the available sats at the place you intend to fly by using the software here,

Thought I throw my test and findings into the mix.
I've just done the update, first time I've updated since I purchased the H. Never experienced any issues before so I thought there's not much point updating. That being said, the trim option really appealed to me so I jumped in and went with this latest update.
Also, I haven't done any mods to my H, all is standard.
I am based in the U.K. However I purchased my H from SLRHut so from the US, came with standard firmware and I updated to standard firmware, not EU.
Update went well - top marks to Captain Drone for the sweet how to update video. I've just been out and flew 3 batteries and it flew just as well as before, the trim feature is amazing. The only issue I noticed was with telemetry dropping out. Prior to the update I'd never experienced a telemetry drop, I've only flew out 2000ft or so before, but on my second battery I experienced a telemetry loss at 1700ft. Nearly **** my trousers, since I've never seen it before. Telemetry was out for what seemed like forever but actually only 5 seconds or so. Still maintained total control. Flew back, landed, put my third battery in and everything was perfect, telemetry didn't drop at all on the 3rd battery and I flew to 2100ft.
I have not upgraded to 2.1 because of all the reported issues -- been waiting to see what happens. Now that they apparently posted a "fix" with 2.4 -- wondering if the 2.1 can be skipped and 2.4 be installed instead. Can I assume you skipped 2.1 and went directly to 2.4 and all is well? Does anyone have any info contrary to skipping upgrades?
First commercial flight with new firmware (EU and RS). YAWdrift to the left side. Drifting all the time. Lost video connection and orange blinking while gear up. It stops decending 20m over ground. Baro shows 2m! With gear down it landed very slowly, while drifting between the houses.
I am very unhappy! Testflight yesterday in free area was perferct.
First, did you recover it? What mode was it in? Did you do any/all calibrations before? Do you have the telemetry file? Etc.I installed the new update, and then immediate had a flyaway without any previous issues on 1.18.
Second time having this issue, last time they repaired it.
Anyone have any thoughts on the matter?
