If you use the mission planner to flash online, it will automatically help you to upload the firmware suitable for the APM board.For example, the copter firmware for apm is 3.2.1 (mission planner will help you upload this version),the latest version is for PIXHAWK , if you upload offline above 3.2.1, it will clear the bootloader of chip,&nbsp;<strong>when bootloader is broken, apm cannot work, also cannot upload new firmware.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>APM 2.x (APM 2.6 and later) are no longer supported for Copter, Plane or Rover. The last firmware builds that fit on this board are Copter 3.2.1, and Plane 3.3.0, and Rover 2.5.1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>So, upload firmware online at mission planner, if you upload offline, make sure the version is not above 3.2.1(copter, for example)<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some people maybe meet this problem using APM flight controller.
