    Haven't updated Litchi since early '18 - should I?

    I've wanted to be able to do missions with Litchi on my Spark like my Mavic since I found the app last year. Being able to use Google Earth and program the above ground altitude, etc creates such an amazing video quality that it's really unbelievable to me even now. But now that pre-programmed...

    Waypoints with spark?

    If you saw how much more advanced this was you wouldn't ask that. It's unbelievable with a Mavic. I plan my route in Google Earth (keeping a constant above ground altitude), import it into Litchi, and get some amazingly smooth videos from it. Litchi is awesome. If they ever add waypoints for...

    Just got a controller... OMG!

    If using your drone for work, someday you may want to upgrade to a unit which can do a pre-programmed flight. That way your photos or video will be from the exact same spots each time. I use Litchi with my Mavic and the super smooth videos it makes are fantastic. You could even edit a video...

    February’s Film Competition

    Just filmed this when I got to the office this morning. I hadn't flown the spark for quite a while! Warning - there is sound, so check your volume. Also, if you're a nature lover you may tear up a little as this is quite amazing. :)

    RESOLVED - DJI Assistant 2 can't update anything

    I haven't flown my Spark in several weeks, so I charged both batteries and connected to my pc this morning in anticipation of needing a firmware update. I was greeted with the "updating no fly database is required" message. It wouldn't connect and update (I think this was normal) and so I...

    RE-reduced Spark Fly More Combo, Case, Refresh, and OTG cable

    I'm selling my Spark and all accessories shown / described because I also have a Mavic and finally decided I don't need both. I bought the Spark after crashing the Mavic and having severe withdrawl. Since the repair was complete on the Mavic, I have kept the Spark with me instead of the Mavic...

    Update notification on Go4

    When I start Go4 it gives me the update reminder message (the one that lets me click I know or ignore). I've updated the ac,rc,and extra battery along with go4. Am I missing something? I'd think that this message would go away if everything was up to date.

    DJI Go 4 VS Litchi

    I have never been able to get the Spark to connect with wifi using my Samsung Note 4. I was not able to scan and register it the first day either. I ended up using my iphone and it has worked perfectly since the first time. I have used a Samsung Galaxy S7 and it worked fine too, just...

    DJI Go 4 VS Litchi

    With my Mavic and Android, sometimes when flying waypoints the video feed is way behind where the drone actually is. The videos made with it are phenomenal, but I don't see why it should lag so much when Go 4 doesn't with that machine. If I can get Litchi to work with the Spark I'll use it a...

    Neat cable trick (no wifi to RC) if you own a Spark & Mavic

    I discovered during my vacation that my cords are perfectly fine and you were absolutely correct - connection sequence is important. All I needed to do was connect the phone cord and adapter first, then connect to the RC.

    Spark won't connect to Go 4 on my device

    Just in case someone sees this with the same issue - I purchased an OTG cable and now Go 4 works with my Spark and Android device. However, you need to connect the cables in the correct order or it won't recognize the device. There are other threads on OTG connection and they go over the steps...

    Tell me the good, the bad, and the fugly

    Understandable, but if you fly the Spark in sport mode it is REALLY easy to lose it in an instant. You can still hear it but it's invisible. That's why it's so nice to look down at the screen and figure out which way Home is and fly back.

    Neat cable trick (no wifi to RC) if you own a Spark & Mavic

    I fly the Mavic with my Galaxy Note 4. It won't even connect to the Spark, so I fly that with my work iPhone. I recently ordered a cheap OTG cable to connect the iphone to the RC but for some reason it didn't work. Then I remembered that the Mavic came with a cable for the iphone too. I used...
