Simos beat me to it. you can grab the recovery image from the 'device tarball' for ota-4, simply untar, and look in the partitions folder.
examining this file for image 23: http://system-image.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch/stable/bq-aquaris.en/krillin/index.json suggests that's this tarball: http://system-image.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch/stable/pool/device-168ccf6a391da4f83feb0325783f02b313e3892675bfea9e4a036bd63fd24f93.tar.xz I've opened this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1465660 to see if we gather other reports of this issue.
