Can't flash F-H-40: MCU mismatch, override not enabled - aborted #56

Describe the issue

A bit of backstory first: I wanted to update my drone from BF 4.3 RC4 to the release 4.3 and while setting it up I wanted to test failsafe by arming and turning my radio off but it just dies right after arming, sometimes needs a bit of throttle to die. Dying means no reset, no startup beeps - from the ESCs or the FC, the video blanks and than shows roling white blobs on black.
Tried re-flashing 4.3 RC4, but it does the same thing, only sometimes it manages to properly reset instead of dying.
Also, my smokestopper doesn't trigger. It should be trigger around 3-4A I think.

I have HolybroKakute F7 AIO with 4 separate ESCs - two G-L-30 and two L-H-40 types. (I helped here with the telemetry timing a while back).
I am debugging the problem right now and I wanted to update the ESC as I was running old BETA firmware, what if it could solve my problem?
G-L-30 flashed fine, but the L-H-40 are reporting MCU mismatch, override not enabled - aborted and I want to ask here rather then forcing the flash. I do not remember having this problem before.

I'm pretty sure these are F-H-40s, I have flown this drone before, than it sit on the shelf for weeks, only thing I did was soldered antenna on VTX and now it is dying even with the VTX completely disconnected. I have no idea why lol.
So what's the way to get the proper MCU?

ok, looks like the dying problems were caused by some high current draw spikes or something not triggering red light on smokestopper but triggering the reset of it. Even reseting digital DC controlled supply. But straight from the battery it's works perfectly.
Now it's just a question of 'should I force flash the version of the H type esc?'
