Greencube and Mission Planner

[Lukemook]

Hello, I use my 3DR solo with a recently and successfully upgraded greencube and I use Mission Planner as my primary GCS software. When I connect to the solo, it says that there is an update for ArduCopter 3.5.5 and I then 'updated' my Open Solo version to 3.0.0, yet the message still shows. I was wondering if I can upgrade the ArduCopter firmware to that version without necessarily updating Open Solo, or do I have to wait for the next Open Solo update that features ArduCopter 3.5.5.

Thanks,
Luke

If you're not already intimately familiar with handling, loading, and tweaking ArduCoper parameters, then NO. The version of ArduCopter that came with Open Solo (ArduCopter 3.5.4) has all the Solo's required parameter settings baked into it. The plain 3.5.5 version you get from Mission Planner will not have that.
