The new out-of-box anafi bird wants to update from a "beta" firmware to the dreaded 1.64. The skycontroller wants to update from a 1.60 version to 1.63. These are all local (onboard) downloads and not from a Parrot server or the internet.
The ff6 from the playstore is on the phone which has wifi off, data off and no chip. Flying location is South America, not FCC.
From the gathered wisdom since the last fw update (1.64) - the falling birds, the FCC block out of the mod app - are there any suggestions on how to proceed setting up?
The bird and controller are connected (indoors) with FCC available since the anafi came from US, but even though it says FLY it will not fly, rather it passes to a window obliging the updates. At this point I have halted. Let me repeat, the bird has a "beta" firmware, no number, not 1.62 nor 1.63, it only offers to install 1.64. The sky controller is at 1.60 offering to got to 1.63.
I was unhappy with a previous anafi flying in CE. Loss of video and short distances. But the modded app and 1.63 fw saved the bird and I enjoyed video and long distance flights. Fun. This changed recently with the new fw update 1.64 causing the bird to fall from 25 ft height with 9% battery. That bird gives the Vertical Camera Error and that anafi does not fly anymore. The vertical camera connection looks good, I understand it could be a number of problems since it crashed.
I bought this new bird before I saw the recent posts on lost FCC access after fw 1.64. I hope to set it up in a way that I can get FCC in South America. It looks like I will have to install the local updates since I see no alternative to this initial setup. Knowledge, suggestions are welcome.
