Controller reboot.

[Dondi]

I update my controller then it tells me to reboot my controller. How do I do this?

Turn it off and back on... That's what they mean

I've tried that but no luck.

Does the firmware need to be the same for the aircraft and the controller?

I am also getting a "No RC signal".

For P3A/P the aircraft firmware is 1.8.80 and the RC is 1.6 so, no, they aren't the same.

I am getting a "RC signal lost". I also get a "Controller needs update" message.
I update it and it says "Firmware is downloaded, reboot your controller ".
I shut the controller off and turn it back on but the same messages come back.
Very frustrating .

After the AC update to V1.8.80 you need to update the RC, because the signal encoding has changed.
If the update does not work through the App you might have the older GL 300A type. It needs an update using the USB port.

The GL 300A only requires the use of USB updating if you're on firmware older than 1.3.20.....after that it updates via the GO app the same as the B and C versions.
