Bonjour,
J'ai remplacé ma gimbal par une d'occasion, j'ai la retransmission vidéo, la caméra bouge lors de l'allumage du drone, mais ensuite j'ai l'alarme "gimbal not ready" et "gimbal IMU error" et lorsque j'essaie de faire une calibration de la gimbal, celle ci se met à bouger dans tous les sens à très grande vitesse...
Pouvez-vous m'aider à trouver une solution ???
D'après fimi je suis obligé de renvoyer mon drone en Chine pour recalibrer le cadran...

After updating the camera (over the air) to version 2029, the image began to freeze.
I tried to roll back the firmware, but unfortunately your method does not work (((I did everything according to the video instructions, but the drone does not respond to the fw_update folder located on the memory card.
Installed software versions:
- FC 1030A
- Battery 1011
- RC Relay 2009B
- FC Relay 2009B
- NFZ 1002
- Camera 2029B
- RC 1004A
- Vision 2003A
- ESC 1023
- Ultrasonic 1009A

I am going to make a copy of my drone as is, No updates, Nothing except what came out of the box, If any of you want a copy of the bare naked drones firmware... all files, Please email me at masterwaynep@hotmail.com Subjectline: FIMI FAMEWARE HELP (all caps) so i dont miss it, and i will send you a (most likely dropbox link) or if its small enough just the files themselves, that way you can start all over if you need to. I just flew my drone for the 4th of july, 2021 so i Know for a fact these work. I hope im able to help anyone desperately in need, Will respond to your email as soon as I recieve it thanks!

Hi, I can ´t update with this method. My Laptop says, there's not enough space on fc_upgrade.
and that's true, there are one round about 3mb.

i want to downgrade my drone, because I get no live video. there's also no firmware for my camera and vision. the app says n/a for both, the other like rc or gimbal got firmware.

also my sd card is not. detected I think

I need to know if anyone could tell me how to pinpoint an actual vibration issue. My drone starts fine, with no warnings but when I get about 15ft in the air I get a legitimate vibration issue (not false reading) and I have very little control of the drone.

To downgrade from 2029B would b 2028A which is here and I believe it would put back the 12M picture support plus whatever know bugs that there were..

As a certified pilot and having owned and used a number of drones from DJI and Parrot, I found this possessed many of the similar traits. There's a large number of intelligent flights modes for any user from beginner to advanced and each are simple to setup. The folding design also makes this perfect for travel or just throwing in a back when you're heading somewhere.

The last update has knocked my compass off so I cannot fly as it won't connect to GPS.
How do I fix this? Is there another update coming? Should I undo the update?
Please advise because I really need to get drone videos before New Years.
Thank you

Appears this page has not been updated for awhile. Was looking to downgrade my camera firmware from 2029B.
Wasn't there some other versions of the camera firmware from 2025A to 2029B ?
Thanks
