[solved] APM Planner: Error downloading firmware

Giuseppe · October 14, 2019, 7:06pm

Hi there

I’m getting an Error on APM Planner 2.0.27-rc1 while installing ArduRover on Pixhawk 4.
Error number: 203
Error text: Error transferring http://firmware.ardupilot.org/Rover/stable/fmuv5/APMrover2.apj - server replied: Not Found

I guess that the right url is http://firmware.ardupilot.org/Rover/stable/fmuv5/ardurover.apj.
How can I tell APM Planner to search there?
Or is there a possibility to install the firmware manually?

Greetings Giuseppe

I wouldn’t use APM Planner for that purpose. If you can’t use Mission Planner use QGroundControl and select the Ardupilot Flight Stack then Chibios Ardurover from the pull down menu.

Great! Thank you, it worked!

Here is what i did:
I Installed QGroundControll according to the Download and Install-Page

I couldn’t Upgrade the Firmware while The Pixhawk 4 was connected to a DC Power-source other than the USB.
