Getting an 8s back to stock FW was created by Crossrock
I have a new Devo 12 coming and cant for the life of me work out (or find how) to get my 8s back to stock FW. I have deviation 4 running on it but Walkera's site has no FW listed for it now under service and links in the "How-to" here in the forum has dead link. Believe me I have looked (for hours) and not asking without having done a heap of searching.
Helllpppp.
Helllpppp.

Just tried doing the Update like ppl have said to do but the screen is unreadable and TX turns off. I thought it was a bit trickier than that

This sounds like you didn't install the library.
Do not ask me questions via PM. Ask in the forums, where I'll answer if I can.
My remotely piloted vehicle ("drone") is a yacht.

Yes I agree it sounds like library didnt install but I did install the dfu lib file from the German site. With those 2 files the FW will allow me to either upgrade or upload but lib file I only get the upgrade option. I ended up upgrading to the new deviation 5 just to get the screen back. I'm wondering if I connect via usb in v5 and delete the lib files first whether it may work. So basically still
