How to update Wispr Drone Flight Firmware

Sections

Connect drone to computer

  1. Plug in a USB to USB Mini cord going from your computer/laptop (USB) to the back single port (USB Mini) on the top tier of the drone.

2. Once plugged into both, open mission planner. If you do not have mission planner, download the latest version from here : https://ardupilot.org/planner/docs/mission-planner-installation.html

  • Do not connect the drone to Mission Planner only open the program

Go to setup ->install firmware -> Load custom firmware.

3. The latest custom firmware will be included in the last zip file you received from WISPR. It will be saved as .apj file such as this (see picture below) (this is only an example). Click on Load custom firmware and select the .apj file from your computer. The .apj will begin loading. A green progress bar will fill the status bar. Once it finishes you have now uploaded the newest WISPR Flight Firmware onto your drone.

  • If you do not have this file please visit here : /wiki/spaces/WSDS/pages/49348639 to get the newest downloads and zip files for WISPR Software and Flight Firmware Downloads.

While uploading the custom firmware, you may get a pop-up saying “Please unplug the board, press OK, and then plug your connection back into the Mission Planner”. This is normal and nothing to be alarmed about. Just follow those directions. This will not hurt anything you are uploading. (See below picture for example)
