Hello

I am using OpenPilot in my CC3D Multirotor board. I read that OpenPilot is already old now so should I upgrade my firmware to LibrePilot? If so, how can I upgrade? Also, is there any pros and cons to upgrade the firmware? I mean if it affects the flying or not.

Please let me know.

Kind regards and thanks in advance!

As you say that your firmware may be very old, first thing I would check is the bootloader version. It should be Version 4.

If you have the correct bootloader installed, it's simple: Get the software and install it as you are used to. You can get the software here:

Bootloader version is ok but there are some issues regarding GCS and firmware version. Any idea how to solve it? Should I upgrade the firmware? Is it possible without erasing the current settings? Also, if I want to upgrade which version I should download? Please let me know. Thanks a lot!

If you bootloader is already updated, you just need to do:

1 - Plug the board
2 - Hit Upgrade&Erase
3 - Wait

Firmware is updated

You may need to erase because there is some changes in UavObjects

Be aware that erase means your settings are lost. So if you tuned your quad. make screen shots of your tuning pages before erasing.
