Elios 3 on board datasets

Before updating to the new drone firmware, please import all dataset present on the drone memory and erase the memory with Inspector 4

If you have updated your drone and did not import previous datasets, you can downgrade your drone. Please read this article or contact support if needed.

Elios 2 datasets
