INTRODUCTION<\/strong><\/p>\n

This service bulletin is being issued to alert all Alta X operators of an issue where logging fails to start when WiFi or TELEM 2 is enabled, due to insufficient memory. In order to work around this issue, users can choose between having communications enabled for the FRX Pro, or for WiFi, but not both simultaneously<\/strong>. Read below to see how to properly set up parameters. If you have any questions or concerns, or if you are currently using TELEM 2 for an integration, please contact Freefly Systems Support<\/a>.<\/p>\n

BACKGROUND<\/strong><\/p>\n

One customer has reported an error where flight logs were unavailable after a flight while operating on firmware version 1.3.6. The root cause of this was that there was not enough free RAM(memory) in the flight controller to allow logging to begin. Each additional feature that is enabled on the flight controller will utilize additional RAM. In the case of Alta X, FRX communication is always enabled by default. When also enabling WiFi communication or TELEM 2, there may not be enough RAM available to start logging. Furthermore, disabling WiFi was a complex process, requiring the end user to manually edit multiple parameters.<\/p>\n
