I updated my Spirit GT to the 3.43 update and also updated my Jeti DS 12 to the 5.06 August 2022 update. When I try to get into the Spirit System on the Jeti, I get an error message, "Spirit.bin needs to be updated.

Can you please proide up with the update.

Thanks for your help!

All the best,

Hello,

this error mean that your BIN file was actually not updated. There is still old file. Probably new file was copied to other directory which is very common issue.
Here is for example video that will show how to upload new files correctly:

I have correctly updated the firmware for the Spirit.bin file but the Jeti DS-12 update for the Spirit flybarless unit is not compatible with the Spirit.bin file, it needs to be updated. You need to get in touch with Jeti and work it out so that the Spirit function in the Jeti will properly function.

All the best,

I am afraid, but this is not correct.
The current (3.4.1) JETI integration files are fully compatible with the latest firmware 3.4.3. So it will work certainly.

When you perform update of the JETI radio it will rewrite integration files to the old version. So you have to update them manually again after the radio update.
If done correctly, it will simply work.

If you will be unable to do so, we can schedule a meeting with TeamViewer and I will do the update for you.

I have a Spirit GTR and a Jeti DS-12 carbon. I have the latest firmware updates and bin file. Spirit-Jeti integration is working as expected without issues.

I downloaded the Spirit integration file 3.41 which has been available for some time and noticed that they did update the Spirit Bin file w/0 updating the revision number. I used this Spirit Bin file and it worked properly.

All the best,

There was revision r2 for 3.4.1 that was uploaded few months ago. It has a different filename - including "r2". However original 3.4.1 was fully compatible with 3.4.3 too. Also version 3.4.0 is compatible with 3.4.3 actually. So it was 3.3 or older in the radio.
