Horus x12s update

Post by SteveH »

My Horus X12s is currently running on OpenTX 2.2.0N362.
I would like to upgrade to OpenTX 2.2.1 but I have read somewhere there are problems with this upgrade.
Can anyone confirm if this upgrade is stable or not?
Thanks for any advice.

Thanks for your reply Kilrah.
My X12s was one of the first of the main production (not beta) and I immediately changed to OpenTX.
I had read somewhere (and I cannot find the thread now) that there was an antennae warning problem with some radios when upgrading to 2.2.1 depending on which version of FrskyOS you were coming from.

That is not a problem with OpenTX. If you flash the latest FrSkyOS (and thus internal module firmware) you will have that error but that is unrelated to OpenTX and its version. The module firmware in the previous FrSkyOS distribution is OK, and they said they would fix it in their next release.

You should probably flash that since if your radio is that old a beta and you didn't update the module since it is likely on one of the firmwares that have known issues.

Thanks for your reply and help Kilrah.
My X12s is one of the first production batch after the beta programme.
The module firmware has been stable with no issues.
I will go ahead and upgrade to OpenTX 2.2.1.
