Connect the robot to your computer with the cable and keep it powered on. Then click the button below and pick your robot in the browser dialog.
Picking the wrong one installs the wrong firmware and the robot may not move correctly. Not sure? Check the shell — the camera model has a camera on the front.
The latest version is selected by default. What changed in it is shown right below once you pick one.
One click does the rest. The page tells you when to restart the robot — keep the cable plugged in and this tab open until then.
Restart the robot — power it off, then on. It boots into the new system; connect it to Wi-Fi again afterwards.
First make sure the cable supports data transfer. Some bundled cables only carry power and will not be recognised by the computer — try a cable you know can transfer files.
If it is still not detected, put the robot into download mode: unplug the cable, hold the BOOT button on the robot, plug the cable back in, keep holding for about two seconds, then release and click “Connect my robot” again.
Not currently. This feature relies on the device-access capabilities provided by desktop browsers and works only in Chrome and Edge on a computer; phones, tablets, Safari and Firefox cannot detect the robot.
No. Flashing restores the robot to its factory state. Wi-Fi credentials, character settings and other local data are erased, and you will need to connect it to the network again afterwards.
Simply retry. Unplug the cable, plug it back in and repeat the steps above — flashing can be repeated safely and will not damage the device. Do not unplug the cable or switch away from this page while it runs.
Flash Duck is still being polished together with the community. If you run into issues, please let us know — we keep improving it.
