has the firmware for the flyingf3 been updated in this release?  should i reflash my board? or is this just the GCS updated? thanks

All the firmware targets were updated as well. I would update if you want one of the new features listed above. If not and you are just having a good time flying, don't risk breaking it!

Thanks sir, i have yet to fly it. i have the 2013.07.13 build, and it seems to be working fine, sensors are displaying properly, i have yet to set it up and try to fly it! Wish me luck :D

i built my own breakout board, so hopefully i did it right also
