At the moment, there is no way to backup Novatek firmwares except dumping the flash chip. In order to do that you'll need to disassemble your cam, desolder the flash chip and dump your firmware image with a SPI programmer device.
I believe, there might be a way to enable engineering menu with possibility to save the FW file, but no one can do that yet.
