New firmware updated with no problems. I have noticed the total capacity for each battery has gone down though. i've not flown for 3 weeks and i was at 95% and 96% on my two batteries(see link below), now i'm at 89% and 90%. Maybe the firmware update is now showing a truer reading?

Autolanding with low battery
You need to open the FDR log file which should be stored on your SDcard. I save mine to my hard drive in a separate folder for reference. Once it is opened you can see firmware version, number of charge cycles and how well your battery is health wise by the total capacity percentage. As you...

If you have a backup of your iOS device prior installing the 'flawed' app, then just restore the backup

Of my 4 batteries my oldest one was at 95% and has dropped to 93% capacity and second oldest went from 100% to 99%. The other two are still at 100% Seems I been doing ok on battery management LOL

Yup! I don't take any care of my batteries being honest. The drone has been well used so the batteries are charged at least once a month though. I'm going to keep to landing around 30% just in case but hopefully we can trust the batteries a bit more now!
I was just checking the comments out at the GooglePlay store. Only 5 comments about this being a bad update. You would think all the people pissed off about this update would have voiced their concerns to the developers and there would be a lot more comments. They do read them I know this for a fact.

The same goes for DJI. I posted a lot on the DJI official forum and exactly the same template answers were written by DJI moderators. (thanks for using the DJI product, try turning it off and on ... We will forward your suggestion to our engineers .... etc)

Thank you for this information Agustine.You should be able to download v6.6.5 from this location. Once you have the APK on your phone\tablet make sure you have install from unknown locations enabled. Click on the APK and it will ask if you want to install it. Click install. Of course you need to delete v6.6.6 first.
However, I have decided to wait until Parrot fixes this. If I start playing around with uninstalling etc. I am sure to mess up everything. Better to stay calm and wait.
In answer to everyone who is not having the problem. The problem is that not everyone running FreeFlight is using a device that can connect to Wi-Fi when out in the field. My tablet has no sim card. I don't own or use a cellphone. I have always been able to start FreeFlight without needing an internet connection. If you are not having the problem, chances are high that you have a sim card and a Wi-Fi connection.

Douglas
Me too
They created a mess!
I have not yet understood what they are trying to do !!

Hello
How do you return to a previous version of Freeflight 6?
Having an internet connection is not always possible where I fly, so this update would ground me in these places.

I have opened a "Case" with googleplay Support and complained about the uploaded version of FreeFlight 6.
They say," . . . . . Once you report this, our team will review and investigate this. They will work with the developer and try to get this sorted."
Let's hope that they can get some reaction to fixing the problem soon.

1.6.4 closed the CE / FCC switch, so many complained that it would not be good when traveling.Me too

That's why they made 1.6.5, which identifies where you are at the network connection you requested at startup.
There was also a need to fix the battery problem due to the complaints and this is a good reason for many to voluntarily plug their heads in the loop.

Ho fatto aggiornato, tutto aggiornato come prima - tranne la nuova schermata che chiedeva di aggiornare la batteria e collegarsi a una fonte di alimentazione.
Ho prenotato il 6.6.6.apk per FCC prima come nel Regno Unito. Mi sta ancora inviato per selezionare i canali 40/44/48, quindi funziona bene.
Inizierà ad aggiornare tutte le mie altre batterie.

I just updated my fleet.
Freeflight to 6.6.6 on iPad Pro 9.7 2016
Anafi Work and Thermal to 1.6.5
All batteries
It was time consuming but went smoothly.
I then turned off my router put the iPad in airplane mode with Wifi turned off and then flew around my living room. No issues or problems.
I am one of the lucky ones?
Also does anyone know what the firmware number is for the batteries so I can log it into my Maintenance Section?
