Firmware upgrades

[coptermanic]

Here's a basic question:
Currently, I set up my TRex 600 using 4.0, and now I see 4.1 is out.
After connecting the USB dongle and downloading the firmware, will all the settings that I have in the many menus be lost? Implying that I will have to start from the beginning again.
Thanks
Mikey

Incidentally, this is not mentioned in the operating manual (I don't think, but I'm sure I've read it somewhere) Somewhat important really if it does wipe your previous settings!!!

Have you had a look at the BeastX Wiki pages?

Firmware update questions - BEASTX Wiki
MICROBEAST/AR7200BX/AR7300BX

Will firmware updates delete my current setup?

That depends whether the data version will change due to the update or not. If it is a different number than the current data version number of your device, the system will perform a factory reset right after the update.

Going by that and as your only going from 4.0 to 4.1 then you shouldn't have to reset anything.

Have you any idea what the update does? If you don't need or use the items that are being changed, and its not a safety issue then it may be best to leave it alone and do the update when you move the BeastX to another model.

Thanks for replies. I bit the bullet and did the firmware upgrade. Seems to have gone without losing settings, but I'll have closer scrutiny tomorrow
