In this video I show how to update the firmware on the Flipsky VX4 remote. In the first batch of the remotes, they were shipped with faulty firmware, causing cutouts, failure to setup, and other issues. The new version of the firmware appears to fix all of these issues, and I show how to use Flipsky's guide, and what the process is ACTUALLY like.

Please keep an eye out for my first impressions video on this remote (coming soon) and my eventual full review of it once I get to ride with it for a good number of miles.

You can find the important documents and software here at Flipsky's blog:

The VX4 feels really nice in the hand, has a great screen, and seems like it'll be fun to use, so I'm hoping I can get it set up on my board very soon and actually get this review done!
