    SUCCESS! we have established connection to the aircraft. everything is working. @tom thanks so much for all your help

    The solution was to update the aircraft using a linux system instead of windows.
    Then we had to to use ssh-keygen to reconnect to the aircraft, and used the new aircraft ip address.
    Finally we had to manually set the qgc ip twice.
    We are now back up and running

    Cheers!

      @Steve-Sager Great to hear! Just to confirm you flashed the latest platform release, 0.9? Making a note of your issue. It's very unusual that you would have to manually edit the qgc_ip. Thank you for being patient.
