    Looks good!

    Just make sure you're trying to install 400 GII firmware. Not firmware for the older version 400.
    As far as I could tell my GII came with the latest firmware. I couldn't find any updates.

    Thanks staz88 I think you nailed it. I've assumed the 400G was specific enough, but think it must be slightly different to the 400GII
    I'm running on firmware 1.011. What's inside yours at present?

    Motor Black Box .com.au has the 1.011 in stock.
    OR you could get the new 500 series with WiFi built in. It allows smartphones/iPads to program it and grap video feeds live. It's only $50 more.

    Plus the body has new vent holes to help dissipate heat better.

    Have seen that but cant find your Blackbox version Can you provide a link cos the page I got onto didnt have a 400 of any model.

    That one I put up also had a Power magic with it as well.

    Saw a review of the 500 which want all that positive so would hang off on that I think
