There are multiple versions released on the u-blox site.
| Marking | Packages | Timestamp | Overview |
|---|---|---|---|
| v2.01 | n/a | 2014-03-14 | In a significant change from previous firmware, this firmware supports parallel operation of any two of the supported GNSS systems. It also supports Chinese BeiDou system for the first time. |
| v3.01 | n/a | 2016-01-25 | This firmware supports parallel operation of any two of the supported GNSS systems. It also supports Galileo for the first time. |
The firmware is uncompressed and unencrypted. It starts with a header recognized by "UBX" magic value which contains parameters for the Flash Firmware Update Tool.

The firmware cannot be flashed by DJI firmware updates. It can only be flashed by Flash Firmware Update Tool provided by u-blox within the u-center GNSS evaluation software.
The flashing requires only serial connection to the chip, and a firmware file downloaded from u-blox website. It can be easily done with USB-to-TTL converter (aka FTDI interface) which supports 3.3V communication.
