Need to upgrade the Lighthouse software on our Raymarine Axiom. It was last done in 2019. Having heard some horror stories about Lighthouse 4 during early rollout, have they fixed the bugs yet or is it likely to brick my Axiom??
 
I've done it seems OK. But not used it much lately. Seems you need to do it a couple of times a year ?
 
I downloaded LH4 when it was first released and have not done any updates. It has been trouble free.

Last winter I upgraded the software on mine to I think the latest version of LH3 and it was a pain: the EV! heading sensor failed to upgrade but didn`t even revert to the previous, the local dealer couldn't fix it and eventually an expensive replacement. So for an average non racing cruiser who is happy with the existing system what genuine functionality will it give to upgrade to LH4? I don`t want to integrate a UAV, add cameras or docking systems!
