HOW TO UPDATE

1. Download the „HD_Ghost.bin“ file. 
2. With the microSD card inserted, plug your Drift camera into your computer (MAC or PC) using the supplied USB cable.
3. Your camera should come up as an External Device with the „Drift Card“ Micro SD card being visible as a storage device.
4. Copy the „HD_Ghost.bin“ file into the root folder of your Micro SD card. 
5. Safely eject your camera as a storage device from your computer.
6. Power on the camera and wait for it to automatically update itself. You will get a
„Firmware update in Progress“ message, and the LED status indicator will blink red. This should take a few seconds and the camera will automatically power off after.
7. Power the camera on again. It will now display „wait for restart“ and restart itself automatically after a couple of seconds. This is a normal process where the camera is installing a Wi-Fi patch.
8. As this is done, navigate to the settings menu and check the „Firmware Version“ to ensure the firmware has been successfully updated.

About Digital Camera Firmware:

Updating to a newer firmware version than the one already installed on your camera can improve the device’s overall performance and stability, resolve various issues, and add support for newly developed features or enhance existing ones.

On the other hand, downgrading the camera’s firmware can recover its functionality in the unlikely event the currently installed version is faulty or the device’s performance dropped after an upgrade. However, bear in mind that applying an earlier build might not always be possible.

It is recommended that changing the camera’s firmware be performed when the new release resolves an issue that your device has been encountering, or adds a new feature (or enhances an existing one) that could prove useful for you.

This process isn’t intended to be destructive, but still, it’s best to save all your personal data and configurations before applying a different firmware. Moreover, make sure that the battery is fully charged and don’t use the camera’s buttons while the installation is in progress.

When it comes to the update method, usually, you must copy the firmware file onto a compatible memory card, insert it into the camera, and browse from the menu to the device’s update section.
