(1/12) FrSky TARANIS Radio - One way to update the firmware

To watch all of the videos in this series you can visit - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYsWjANuAm4rtLZuLU2eSTc3svqWx-pa1 I believe there are different ways to flash the new firmware onto the radio but this is the version I found on the web and the process that worked for me perfectly. ALWAYS RECALIBRATE THE RADIO ONCE YOU HAVE UPGRADED. In this first video in the Taranis video we update the firmware to the latest version using a PC and a USB cable. To do this you need to pieces of software: The OpenTX Companion (windows GUI for the radio) and Zadig USB driver. Both can be downloaded from http://www.open-tx.org/downloads.html Another useful link for this radio is http://open-txu.org/ In this video I cover: - Introduction (0:02) - Useful locations on the web (1:07) - Downloading the software (1:48) - Preparing the radio (3:10) - What 'DFU Capable USB device... Cannot open device' means (3:57) - Installing the USB driver (4:27) - What 'New firmware is not compatible with the one currently installed' means (5:35) - Configuring the radio type in OpenTX Companion (5:56) - Flashing the firmware (6:36) - Summary (7:12) - Demo of the radio with the new firmware (7:50) Thanks for watching, please LIKE and SUBSCRIBE!
