Now that my MX1 is running V12 (v16 is latest) and no longer locking/boot-looping due to data recording issue, I'm turning my attention to the next issue. Namely - Random Reboots. This is a separate problem to the one above. A few questions come to mind... Q1. Is there any advanced logging hidden in...

Unplug your microphone. If the noise goes away, reduce the gain.

Tried Several Versions this morning and found one that seems to work. V16 through V13: These all cause the same crash/boot-loop issues when Flight Data begins to record. V12: Yea! This version works. V11: Didn't try V10: Though some have reported it to work, on my MX1, the Altitude shows ~145,000' ...

I formatted an SD card and loaded it with the iEFIS MX1 Application Software version 10 and FlightOps System MX1 version 0001006... maybe loading these versions could help you too? Lane, I loaded V10 FW files today. It fixes the data recording (Action/StartNewFlight) issue and hopefully further reb...

If you need the older firmware you can copy the links from the firmware update page and change the version number...

For example....

mglavionics.co.za/ MX1upd16L /MX1FW.BIN
becomes....
mglavionics.co.za/ MX1upd10L /MX1FW.BIN

Seems to work with all the other FW files and simulator.

It's refreshing to know that I'm not insane thinking only my (two) MX1's did that sort of thing. It's common for it to freakout in flight and either freeze or boot-loop. I've come so very close to removing it, but it's a really nice unit (if it would only behave). The quick fix for continuous boot-l...

Here is the link for the MX firmware page... http://mglavionics.co.za/mx1upd.html If you are loading the Landscape version (LS) be sure to check what file you are downloading. Looks like the link was edited since my first post. The link looks like " MX1FW.bin ". Make sure to click the right half xxx...

If downloading the LS firmware take note that in order to get V16 you must click on "F" clicking on the rest of the link "MX1_W.bin" directs to V15.

Does ver 16 address anything besides differential fuel?

I'm still getting boot loops when starting flight recording. Have to clear the non-volitile memory to recover. Tried on two different MX1's.

The MX1's (two separate units so far) rebooting/locking-up has been isolated! A few weeks ago it was discovered that pressing ACTION/START-NEW-FLIGHT caused the unit to either go into a boot-loop else freeze. To fix this the NON-volital-memory had to be cleared. As a result I changed Flight-Recordin...
