Help I'm trying to root and upgrade my LG GPad 8

I appear to be stuck at the same place as @BroIjustwannaroot in trying to root and upgrade my LG GPad 8.

I am able to send the recovery, but not write it.
Code:
Sending 'recovery' (15366 KB)                      OKAY [  0.487s]
Writing 'recovery'                                 FAILED (remote: 'unknown command')
