[QUOTE="Sparkbart, post: 7307, member: 652"] Okay, well when everyone said they had to do all their batteries, I went back to the DJI Assistant and sure enough I had to do all my batteries AND as a matter of fact my remote was NOT updated. It had only updated my Spark.... So this is what I did wrong and how I corrected it. I made a mistake in that I did the upgrade the way I do it on my Mavic. The Spark is different apparently. My mistake(s); [LIST] [*]I only had the Spark powered on and connected to DJI Assistant. [*]When I did re-watch the DJI Firmware Upgrade video I saw I had to have the remote powered up. I powered it up BUT I had the OTG cable hooked to my Ipad and for whatever reason that does not show the remote needs a firmware update. I also fly with the OTG so never received a message. Apparently it won't. [*]I didn't change batteries and plug the Spark back into the DJI Assistant OR it I would have seen the message on DJI Assistant about the incompatible firmware and the battery update would have started when I hit the OK... [/LIST] Also the remote update was odd. When I powered up the remote via Wifi and started up the DJI GO app, it finally said I needed to update the remote. It downloaded just fine but it said I needed to connect to the app to upgrade. Didn't say DJI GO app or DJI Assistant app. I plugged into the DJI Assistant app and nothing happened. Connected to the DJI GO App and restarted everything and the remote started the firmware upgrade. So interesting that you need to use a cable to the remote from the DJI GO App to perform the actual update... So I think it is interesting that if you do the update WITH the OTG cable AND fly with the OTG cable you won't see the firmware upgrade messages regarding the batteries and remote. You will only update the Sparks' firmware... I guess you are never too experienced or too old to not know what you are doing! [/QUOTE]
