Hi
I have been trying to upgrade the firmware on my wipy. These are the original units from the kickstarter campaign and i thought i should take a look at them now I'm using micro python. I have followed several online guides and downloaded the relevant bin files from github.
I used filezilla to transfer them to the wipy, however after update the wipy fails to boot and i have to follow the reset routine and install the original version 1 firmware to get anything to work again.
Any help would be appreciated.
Firmware Failure
Re: Firmware Failure
The daily build for WiPY and others are here: http://micropython.org/download/
The you unzip the binary and transfer it with passive mode ftp to /flash/sys on Wipy and Reset.
That's all and worked very often for me.

Thanks
I have tried them and they fail. I am wondering if there may be issues with the boards.

Re: Firmware Failure
No idea. I have the same board and not problems with updating. There might be a hardware problem, but it's more likely that somethign else during load fails. Did you try command line ftp, like?
Code: Select all
ftp -p ip_of_wipy
<enter crendtials, when asked>
cd flash/sys
put mcuimg.bin
