Kestrel 5700 Elite on FW 1.53.

Firmware update failed multiple times via Kestrel Link Ballistics.

Downloaded Kestrel Link (non ballistic) and firmware update failed.

Ran factory reset on Kestrel and tried update - fail.

Multiple times the update says complete on my phone. Profiles are deleted/adjusted on kestrel, but update is not completed.

Any thoughts?

If you have access to a different phone/pad try that for the update.

If you have access to a different phone/pad try that for the update.

I'll try that this evening, thanks

I had the same issue with 3 different phones and 3 different internet providers. I ended up putting the Kestrel in weather mode and using airplane mode and mine finally took.

Using the Kestrel Ballistics app, my Elite took the first time, said it was updated yet it still showed version 1.53 in About. It no longer gave me the option to upgrade FW when I connected.

Updated the 5700X using the non-ballistic Kestrel Link and it worked. Used it on the Elite and it first said it was updated but when I clicked look for updates it gave me the option to update. That update did the same thing, said it completed and still showed 1.53. I'm upgrading it again with it in weather mode vs ballistics. I'm not able to put my phone in airplane mode and still do the update. I've got just wifi on and cellular data disabled this time.
