As far as I know there is no way to downgrade or re-install the current firmware. We will have to wait till Yuneec comes out with newer firmware version.

See HOWTO: Update EU to Standard version, if latest firmware (2.15) is already installed (Adv/Pro ONLY!) for the details (previous Firmware version) for information about how to update to the A version if you have already installed the EU verion (the post describes the previous firmware version).

Follow these steps mentioned in the post (I added step 4):

1. Download the A version (TyphoonH_Ver2.21_A.bin) firmware from the Yuneec Homepage.
2. Download the attached Zip file in this thread post.
3. Unpack the Zip file and put the downloaded firmware (TyphoonH_Ver2.21_A.bin) inside this folder.
4. EDIT THE BATCH SCRIPT YOU DOWNLOADED IN THE ZIP FILE for the new firmware version number (see contents of Batch script below)
5. Run the batch script, by double clicking the "firmware_patcher_v1.cmd" file.
6. The script will output a few informations and a final message: "Done". You can now flash TyphoonH_Ver2.21_A.bin. Have fun!"

Contents of Batch script (for latest firmware version). I have not had the time to do it my self, but I expect it to work.

See the link in my post. You need to edit the batch file downloaded in the zip (or create a new one)
