    Anyone use a dedicated device with Spark?

    I stopped fighting with the hand controls and got a mount. Went through 3 of them and this one is the BEST by far. It fully collapses and fits inside my case. It's $19 on Amazon. DJI Mavic Air / Mavic Pro Tablet Holder -Lightweight Aluminum Alloy Foldable Bracket Mount Extender for DJI Mavic...

    Would Parrot be a good option?

    [Noobie Question] Spark - really that unreliable?

    I also have done that with 3 different ones and they all passed OTG as well as Lenovo states it supports it. I haven't seen a phone or tablet that does support OTG that doesn't work with the Spark. Just really strange.

    [Noobie Question] Spark - really that unreliable?

    True, but since my other phones work on it, I think it is something with the tablet and not the DJI software, cable, or hardware. Would be great to hear if anyone else has been successful with the Lenovo Tab 4 8".

    [Noobie Question] Spark - really that unreliable?

    Already tried that. It almost connects since I see the top of the battery icon blinking as soon as I plug it in but that's all it does.

    [Noobie Question] Spark - really that unreliable?

    am running verison 4.1.15. It works just fine on my Galaxy S8+ and Note 4 but not the Lenovo Tab4 8". I have turned off updates on the Lenovo and ensured I am running 4.1.15 (not 4.1.18).

    [Noobie Question] Spark - really that unreliable?

    I have a been trying to get a new tablet that I just bought for the DJI Spark (which I am also new to about a month ago). My Samsung Galaxy S8+ and Samsung Note 4 work just fine with the OTG Cable (still needing to run 4.1.15). However, I just bought a new Lenovo Tab 4 8" which is going to be...
