My bet is that the system doesn't think that its a V4. Login via LUCI
and look at "Model" on the main landing page at
http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/luci/ or run "less /etc/board.json" from
the command line (without the quotes) and see what it listed under
"model" and "id"
I got that same error yesterday when I tried to flash a 1043 V3 bin
onto a 1043 V2 WAP yesterday (was upgrading remotely and I forgot
which model it was).

On my test V2, sysupgrade takes either without a fuss.
