About the Version of Program Card

Back

In August 2020, a new version of program card, called Program Card X, was introduced to replace the previous one. The new program card X uses a 32-bit MCU and an external EEPROM with larger capacity which make it possible to be used for more devices in the future. Furthermore, the new program card X can work at a wider voltage range (4.8V to 8.4V) direclty without being reliant on the gyro. Therefore, it is recommended to use the program card X for our later gyros such as A3 Mini, A3 Super 4, ect.

Also please note that due to the voltage limitation of the old program card, always limit the working voltage of the gyro below 5.5V when using it for A3 Mini or A3 Super 4, or it may cause connection to fail or even damage of the card.

Before updating the card, always distinguish the version of yours and choose the correct firmware. Below are the release notes of both the new Program Card X and the previous program card for your reference.
