 ====== SD Card Error when downgrading to firmware older than 1.03.1000 ====== ====== SD Card Error when downgrading to firmware older than 1.03.1000 ======
 Some newer Mavic Pros are experiencing an "SD Card Error", with a message to contact DJI when downgrading to older firmware, so they could modify various flight parameters. This prevents, for example, removing the 500m altitude ceiling mod. These aircraft will only operate on firmware 1.03.1000 or later. Some newer Mavic Pros are experiencing an "SD Card Error", with a message to contact DJI when downgrading to older firmware, so they could modify various flight parameters.

 +The problem has been verified in Mavic's manufactured Sep-19-17 and Mavic Platinum Oct-28-17, and is likely there for all manufactured after those dates. There may be earlier units.

 After you have the cover off, thoroughly clean and remove all of the white silicone glue from the SD card holder. This picture shows the holder with a card in it -- this is from an older Mavic. The same two blobs of white glue will be there and need to be removed, there just won't be an SD card. After you have the cover off, thoroughly clean and remove all of the white silicone glue from the SD card holder.

-The original card that DJI shipped was 4GB, but these are hard to find these days. A 16GB card has been verified to work with no problems.+The original card that DJI shipped was 4GB, but these are hard to find these days. This is a stock Mavic card

 After inserting the new SD card, carefully attach a battery and power on the aircraft. Allow it to boot completely. If the rear light blinks yellow instead of staying solid red, you're good to go. Also good to check in GO 4 that the SD Card Error is gone before buttoning up the Mavic. After inserting the new SD card, carefully attach a battery and power on the aircraft.
