Hi
I've had an APM 2.6 operating in a quadcopter and have decided to try it in a helicopter. However when trying to install the helicopter firmware it won't let me proceed with the legend 'There was an unexpected error' and on trying to proceed further the legend 'bad firmware' appears on the screen. I've tried to restore the factory settings via the terminal but this has not helped. Any advice please.

What firmware version were you trying to upload to the board?

Hi
The firmware I was trying to load was for Helicopter v 1.3.9 build 1.1.5346.1391.

That's the Mission Planner version number. The Firmware number for the Helicopter Firmware would be something like 3.1.5 or 3.2rc##.

Firmware V 3.1

Hi
I've sorted it by downloading a fresh version of mission planner and all seems ok.
