''Note: FlySights prior to #2489 can be updated using Mac, Windows XP or Windows 7, but unfortunately not using Windows 8/10. It is possible to fix this problem, but it requires a hardware programmer which most users won't have. If you do not have access to a Windows XP or Windows 7 machine, please let us know (http://flysight.ca/support.htm) and we will make arrangements to update your FlySight so it can be updated using Windows 8 or 10. [FlySights prior to #2489 will need to have their bootloader updated before the firmware update can be performed on Windows 8/10.]''

The latest official firmware version is '''20170405'''.

The procedure for updating the FlySight's firmware is slightly different on Mac and Windows. Choose a set of instructions below to continue.
