On a wing you should point the camera down. Otherwise all you see is the sky

Hey guys, just picked up 2 of these and was trying to update the firmware to 0907.

Seems all went well...except for when the firmware update flashing stopped on the LED... the camera then was frozen with no way to turn it off.

Has anyone had this happen before? It happened on both so there is some issue there.

The only way I found to get the camera to turn off was to use a bent paper clip and press the reset button. This turned the camera off.

Question is now... does the reset button now erase the firmware update that was just added?

Thanks to anyone who can give me some insight to this issue.

Jello Waving freeze problem with my Firefly Micro


Hi all, can someone help me finding a solution with Jello or Waving problem with my Firefly Micro? I've latest firmware. I just fix it on my small 450 quad with tape. The video is Jello and Waving, not sure if this is the appropriate terminology, but you can have a look at. And sometimes the image is freezing.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/pmduv8v204...Jello.m4v?dl=0

When on ground with motors low RPM got perfect image. Could it be: too close from main battery 3300mAh 3S? Propellers? Motors?

Thanks, Chris

No it is not needed. Someone in the other forum informed me that pressing the reset button does not clear the newly upgraded firmware, so all will be good.

My guess is that your "small" 450 quad provides some veritable vibrations which are just too much for the tiny Firefly. You could try to soft mount the cam or tune the vibrations of the quad down. If the cam produces a lot of jello even though the carrying platform doesn't shake much it might be faulty e.g. because of a loose lens. There is a vid on YT about how to fix that. Mind that some jello under certain conditions is normal tho but not as much as I've seen in your vid.
