After today’s roasting I wanted to update the bullet’s firmware from 566 to 591. It was my first update, I was nervous and it failed.
Right after starting the update, the connection went red and I saw a notification that RT 3.2.4 had lost connection to the bullet. When I eventually restarted the bullet, my heart sank as it only beeped a couple of times but the display remained black.
After a little bit of research I learned that a dead bullet, beeping 6 times at power on, was actually in bootloader mode, expecting a firmware upgrade.
Eventually I got the order right (power on bullet, connect to Linux laptop, start RT) and was able to resurrect my bullet.
At this point I could complain about how bad the software was yadayada but instead I want to thank @jacob, @mcaillio and the whole team that they gave me a system that could recover from catastrophic failure. Thanks you so much for all the work you put in!
Best,
Nikolay
