    Nice. Are you going to give it a test Steve?

    I have a slew of updates to do (am way behind) but I have a couple things I have to do, and I have a rule about not flying in public on fresh software.

    Can you tell Steve used to be in the software business? (As am I now.)
    I have a test MK Hexa that I use to validate new firmware upgrades -- no gimbal, so the "unit of failure" (in terms of dollars) is lower.

    Andy.

    2.08 has been running well. When you start the MK in boat mode it appears as "BOAT MODE" on the Graupner LCD.

    All,

    There appears to be some script error with MKTool v2.08a along with an OSD incompatibility error. Both errors appear inconsistently upon opening and closing the GUI and power cycling the Kopter.
    Ingo has posted MKTool v2.08d with bug fix in the public beta folder: http://files.mikrokopter.de/PublicBeta/

    For anyone interested in the related discussion: http://forum.mikrokopter.de/topic-48364.html

    Greetings,
    Adam

    Both kopters are solid. Just make sure to backup your settings prior to update.
