tinypilot software upgrade - Phil_Shotton - 2021-04-08

Hi, I have a tinypilot (April 2020 vintage). What's the recommended software upgrade path. Do I treat it just the same as a pypilot installation on a Pi? Thanks.

In summary: on tinypilot, pull the code from github and run pypilot.build.

If internet connectivity of the tinypilot is a problem, do it remotely from a raspberry that is connected to the internet:

But unless you have a good reason to stick to the old image, I'd suggest first downloading the latest tinypilot image fromĀ https://pypilot.org/

Please start just by downloading the latest tinypilot image, and reflashing the sdcard.

Once this is complete you will need to re-calibrate the inertial sensors:

Thanks both. Reimage looks like the way to go. I've only recently discovered the pypilotWorkbook - excellent stuff, and there's lots buried in ths forum that I'm slowly discovering.
