hi, All

Am trying to upgrade all my helis, today. till now very bad experience with the new firmware 3.0.0
got 11 to go, so is very annoying not be able to upgrade easily like the previous ver.
in particular, the red spirit is very hard, I select the new firmware and the software (ver 3) just stays there flashing from normal too "Not responding on top of the program"
with PRO units same issues, the software just do nothing for many minutes.

I try the procedure on this link http://manual.spirit-system.com/index.p ... ing_Failed
but trying to do a "Recovery mode" flashing do nothing, the same pause of the software and no update.

I already unlock the firmware file and software. I already try with admin privileges and normal mode.

till now I was able to upgrade only on goblin 420 with a pro unit.

all red units do the same.
spirit 2 still pending to try.

normal Windows 10 laptop with no running software at the moment of the update.
note that before I was upgrading all the helis with no issues.

any help?

Hi,

do you have any other computer to try or another USB interface?
Presently for flashing the new firmware the old firmware (2.8) is responsible. So it has nothing to do with new version yet.
The update process is still identical.

Things such as USB interface driver might be changed during system updates. So reinstalling the USB driver can help too.

You can also try to update with the old Spirit Settings 2.8 software.
It can be downloaded here:
