New firmware update Anafi 1.6.7

d95gas · Mar 22, 2020

You wont be able to. The issue caused by 1.6.4 Locked the "CountryCode" on the Anafi. The 1.6.7 did NOT fix this issue. Developers have reported the same and its stopping them releasing software.

We have to wait until Parrot release firmware which will again allow changes to "CountryCode"

Thank you for the good news

I note that developers are reporting that 1.6.7 did NOT fix the "CountryCode" issue as they had been informed by Parrot on a previous occasion.

They are asking when Parrot is going to fix as they (developers) are ready to release new software but are unable to do so until this is fixed.

So there is hope yet of another quick firmware update.

It's getting more and more confusing ... and more embarrassing

Well actually, it seems that I am.

Yes some of their error messages leave a lot to be desired

Who did you write this for now? What kind of sensor?

I've updated Anafi to 1.6.7 and i have noticed that the sensors on the bottom camera module and flow sensor works better Anafi hovers more stable and lands and take off smoothly not agressive.

Yes I did notice this yesterday as well. Thought it might be just luck but now that someone else feels it is better maybe they did improve it. Wish we knew just what they improved or fixed

Parrot always hiding a surprise on their updates.

I believe every single update to this point was better and better. But with 150+ flights and more than 15 hours flown in 9 months, what do I know? ;-)

p.s. I never used illegal apps to circumvent aviation laws, maybe that is why I am more lucky than others

Also not a single crash

I just don't understand why they need to be repaired afterwards? Didn't notice this when the prototype was finished? one landing and it would've turned out to be too hard ...
I understand that new features are being invented and added to existing ones, but basic flight features should be perfect at the moment of launch!
Why are today's manufacturers so stupid? (Fimi machines still lack some features, not ready ...)

First they did 40cm distance to surface = land with speed x until drone stops.
For example.

now it’s probably 40cm distance to surface = land with speed x - (1*-distance) now that they figured our a more precise way to get the distance reading from the sensors

man are they stupid!

version 1.6.5, you can use updated batteries to fly without any risk.

It sounds like a politician wrote that!
I wonder what Parrot's definition of "to fly without risk" is?

charleslee · Mar 24, 2020

Managed to get some flying in the last few days - 1.6.7 is working fine, but 1.6.5 was also working fine for me as well.

This things about the battery is worrying, they clearly dropped the battery firmware update - so does this mean they have broken something, or too many people complained about batteries not working!!

As per Parrot poor information and poor process for firmware testing and procedures.
