Description
In the initial setup window/Install Firmware tab there is now way to load previous versions of the firmware.
This need has happened with issues in 3.2.1 and I needed to go back to the more stable 3.1.5 version.
There is a custom firmware option but that requires you to manually download a previous version and then select the file on your drive. Just finding a previous version in firmware/diydrones can keep you looking for days.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reading the initial setup window and Install Firmware tab, which the issue identifies as the relevant entry points. Clarify how previous firmware versions can be selected there; done means users can choose a prior version without manually finding and downloading its file.
