    So, tried up update to 2.04a on my hex today. As the loader started it said there was a line of code that was bad and proceeded to update anyway. I now can't get my 2.1 FC back to 2.02a (working) or to communicate at all. When I plug directly into it nothing shows up in MK tool. Anyone else had this issue? Am I buying a new FC?

    If you have some multi-stranded wire, you can pull out one strand and use that to short two pins together.
