Is there an option, maybe in a config file rather than the GUI, to turn off the alerting to upgrade old firmware on some arduino board?

I have set up a sim with XP11 that auto starts MF for someone "none technical", and this appears and confuses them... especially as it can be hidden behind the XP11 stuff.

Thanks, Neil.

Hi

This message is not related to a specific SIM.
It means there are "Arduinos" connected that not include the newest Firmware!

If these are used as Mobiflight Boards then it´s high recommend to Uptate to newest Firmware.
If otherwise these are "other" Elements.... Like self Build Joystick Boards based on a Arduino ..... then you have this FALSE Warning!

NOTE: If you disable AutoUpdate then the Message no longer popup.... BUT.... It will also NOT popup if there is a new Version in the future and a Update is Needed.
Means.... THEN you need to make Updates by hand !

Function is within the /Settings/Mobiflight-Modules Tab..... In the lower section there is a checkbox " Firmware Auto Update enabled" ....
Dimply rfemove the hook from Checkbox and MF no longer ask to Update !

Good Luck !
