2. Open DJI Assistant 2 (debug mode).
3. Hold specific button combo (depends on drone) while powering on to enter firmware update mode.
• Example: Hold power + gimbal pitch wheel (Mavic series).
4. The drone should appear as “USB Serial Device”.
Step 3: Use DUMLdore
1. Open DUMLdore.
2. Load the .bin firmware file.
3. Select correct COM port (find in Device Manager).
4. Click “Flash” to force firmware onto the drone.

Tools You’ll Need:
1. DUMLdore v4 (latest version)
GitHub: https://github.com/Jezzab/DUMLdore4
2. Air 2S Firmware .bin File
You can get these from:
• https://dji-firmware-updater.com/firmwares/air-2s/
• OR extract it from the DJI Assistant 2 install folder after downloading firmware.
3. DJI Assistant 2 (Consumer Drones Series)

Step-by-Step Process
1. Install DJI Assistant 2 + USB Drivers
• Install DJI Assistant 2 (Consumer Drones Series).
• Plug in your Air 2S via USB-C.
• Let it install any necessary drivers.
• Make sure Windows recognizes it under Device Manager > Ports (COM & LPT).
⸻
2. Download the Firmware .bin File
Example firmware for Air 2S:
• v02.04.21.50 (commonly used stable version)
• Download .bin from:
Save the .bin file somewhere accessible.
⸻
3. Put the Drone into Firmware Loader Mode
Air 2S does not use button combos like older drones. Instead:
• Open DJI Assistant 2, connect the drone, and downgrade/refresh firmware (optional)
• Disconnect DJI Assistant 2
• Open DUMLdore
If the drone is detected as a COM device, you’re good. If not:
• Use Zadig driver tool to replace the USB driver with WinUSB (libusb)
⸻
4. Flash the Firmware with DUMLdore
• Open DUMLdore v4
• Select the .bin file for the Air 2S
• It should auto-detect the COM port; if not, enter it manually
• Click “Flash” and let it run until complete
⸻
After Flashing:
• Power cycle the drone
• Reconnect with the DJI Fly App
– [ ] • Run a Gimbal Auto Calibration
– [ ] • Test if 40011 is resolved

– [ ] DJI Drones That May Require Other Tools:
• The Matrice 200 Series and Matrice 300 RTK may require DJI Skyport and DJI Pilot App for advanced calibration and configuration, particularly for industrial applications or if using specialized payloads. These drones are designed for enterprise use, and specific software tools are used for configuration beyond what the DJI Firmware Tools cover.
2. DJI Inspire Series:
• The Inspire 1 and Inspire 2 use DJI Assistant 2 for Inspire for firmware updates, gimbal calibration, and other advanced settings. While DJI Firmware Tools can handle basic tasks, the Inspire series has unique requirements for setup and calibration.
DJI FPV Series:
• DJI FPV and DJI Avata use specific tools like DJI FPV Assistant 2 for configuration, tuning, and firmware updates. These are primarily used for racing drones, and their setup might require more customization than the typical DJI drones.
DJI Spark:
• Although DJI Spark can be calibrated using DJI Assistant 2, earlier versions might require additional tools or app updates to fully calibrate gimbals and cameras. The DJI GO 4 app is commonly used, but some firmware and calibration features might not be available directly in the DJI Firmware Tools.
5. DJI Phantom 3 Standard & older:
• DJI Pilot App and DJI Skyport are used for enterprise drones like the Matrice series.
