Appendix A: Firmware Upgrades
Both the OSD, and the Flight Controller, are updated using the USB port on the rear of the Vortex.
Prior to any upgrade, please remove all Props!. If for any reason the props spin up during a firmware upgrade,
serious damage to persons and/or property is very likely.
If your Vortex is not recognized as a valid USB device when you plug it in your PC, you will have to install a driver
first. You can download it from here: CP210x USB to UART Bridge VCP Driver
To update the OSD and Flight Controller you will need to install two chrome applications:
1. vortex-configurator
2. Betaflight-configurator
OSD Firmware Upgrades
To upgrade the OSD, use the new vortex-configurator chrome app.
Please note that you need to rerun the Tx wizard after each up- or downgrade of the OSD firmware to make
sure that the FC and OSD know the range and endpoints of your controls. Failure to do so might result in the
OSD being unresponsive to the quad exhibiting strange behavior.
