It would probably work but it would be a downgrade from the latest multiwii release.

Hi, you have raison, if I do update by mission planner, system not respond.....
If I load with flash tool, it's ok.
So I have just a problem to configure my serial gps, I don't know witch port use ?

So, is it possible to load this firmware directly by Mission planner ????
And where do you find this version ?
All the best..

Just download version 2.4 and install it using the Arduino IDE. Mission planner is for creating gps missions, not for updating firmware.

Ok with Arduino, but in Mission planer there this possibility, but impossible to selected versions. (same in windows)

Mission planner is for arducopter, not multiwii.

It's pretty simple. Arducopter and Multiwii are two different firmwares that can run on the same hardware. Not interchangable as they are two separate development platforms. Use one firmware or the other.
They do NOT work together.

Hi kbev

I agree with you, that's why I do not understand why the installations of the last firmware from mission planner does not work.
Actually, I must install old firm via Flashtool or IDE Arduino and it's OK to conned mission planner.
