Upgrade a Naza-M Lite to a Naza V2

What we are doing here?

This project aims at developing a free software tool to upload 4.02 firmware to Naza-m lite controller. Currently produced Naza-m lite and Naza-m v2 main controllers have absolutely identical hardware, but different firmware.

What is the problem?

The issue is that dji has locked Naza-m lite bootloader so that you cannot simply use v2 assistant to upgrade firmware. We have conducted substantial research to be able to unlock firmware upgrade feature. So far we have successfully uploaded the lastest Naza-m v2 firmware (version 4.02) into Naza-m lite controller and have made inflight tests of additional dji equipment, such as iOSD and 2.4Ghz datalink.

Why do I need to upgrade?

After you upgrade you receive a fully functional Naza v2 controller:
» Better inflight algoritms - takeoff, landing, GPS position and altitude hold
» Octacopters support
» Ability to connect CAN-bus devices such as iOSD, zenmuse gimbal etc (using v2 pmu module)
» Autonomous waypoint flight from groundstation with dji datalink modem
» All other features that Naza-m v2 have

Can you show some results?

Here is short video showing Naza-m lite upgraded to 4.02 firmware waypoints flying from groundstation:



Downgrading back to a Naza-M Lite is also possible.
