Hi all ,
I am trying to download the older firmware for plane such as
3.4 , 3.5 .
I want to download them without the mission planner . to use it when offline .
when I visit the link http://firmware.ap.ardupilot.org/Plane/ I found :
2017-03
beta -- --
latest -- --
stable
I think my needs in the first folder 2017-03
but inside it all folders is named by the Date .
I don’t know how to find the specific firmware ?
Any way to download the firmware file using MP ?
Any Help
Regards.

Using Github Tags, you can select an older version and download the source. I think you need to compile and upload to your board manually, if you take this approach. https://github.com/ardupilot/ardupilot

Strange, the firmware server used to contain older versions of firmware. It’s not there anymore.
Mission planner can still download the older firmware, so I guess its present somewhere but I can’t find it. Perhaps one of the devs can help us out here

Take a look at history of hex for AP https://github.com/ArduPilot/binary/commits/master/History/Plane/stable/PX4/ArduPlane-v1.px4
Where You can switch to any tree and get hex which You need.

Each hex is for different type of board.
The v1 file is for PX4v1, the v2 file is for PX4v2 (the Pixhawk), the v4 file is for PixRacer.
