    Apologies

    Why Tapatalk alerts me now is anyone’s guess. Most likely a drunken Inet evening.

    Litchi Max altitude.

    When using an Apple device and OTG, I almost never experience the Spark's (or my other DJI ACs) 'lost logs' or content corruption. Using an Android platform is much more problematic. My M2P coupled with DJI's (Android) . SC is a tedious chore doing pre-flight checks, and is odious...

    Found jumping bean issue

    I discovered the problem with Spark flakiness upon takeoff. Firmware has some unreleased memory registers, and DJI4 cannot recover. I've loaded custom code, and all well. Litchi is fine also.

    Apologies

    I apologize for my outburst, a 4AM post after the Mavic Air pilots set me off. Safe flying.

    Spark crashes on takeoff

    I do the complete opposite, and take off manually, but do use RTH...then take over and land manually....and, just for clarity, there is no "Auto Launch" anywhere. Not for nukes, bottle rockets, drones, water pistol coke bottle 'jets', water balloons, old Estes model rockets, or even a fire...

    Just received a nice gift.

    I've got an old P2 (not vision), Mav Air, and a mav2 pro. I'm fairly set for birds. I was bummed she had lost it....crashed into the S. China Sea. I asked her for her flight logs, in the hope of explaining her error. She declined. I'll probaby come across another Spark, and break down, and...

    Spark crashes on takeoff

    Please post your logs...my guess is you took off in a new location, and the Spark had compass interference. There is no way to speculate further without the flight logs.

    All of a sudden "ADDI" MODE

    Out flying yesterday before work and about 3 minutes into flight that was going real well the remote states ADDI more and my Spark goes crazy. Was flying in regular mode but after the change it went automatically to sport mode and proceeds to almost crash itself. Had a hard time controlling it...

    Nearly had a flyaway today

    Today for grins, I flew my Spark indoors, on the 33rd floor of a high rise 2 times. Calibrated compass, low interference....did a short hover, and turn, switching from OPTI to ATTI a bit. Only 1 single compass error. The 2nd test, I flew near a steel rack, in utility area, and lost all...

    Well , I lost Sparky.....BUT I FOUND IT!

    So sorry to hear you lost your bird. I myself have never fully lost a drone. I thought my Mavic Pro was totally gone, and used my Spark to locate it (!).....in the end, I got the Mavic back, the good old fashioned way, walking all over, alerting people. You might want to look at other DJI...

    Wrappin’ your ride

    She used the heat gun for the 1st time today, and she thought it was a great tool to both stretch the wrap, and the Sprak's surface so the wrap was tighter. But she also agreed it was much more than necessary. Her 2 favorite tools are needle tipped tweezers, and a razor knife with the blade...

    Wrappin’ your ride

    I wouldn't have chosen lime green wrapping for flying over Vietnam's beautiful green rice fields.......but wifey did a great job!

    Nearly had a flyaway today

    Here are 4 log files: 1st one is the 1st flight, using Litchi, with iOS. This is when things started to go awry, and I engaged RTH 2nd one is the same flight, but I extracted the log from the Spark itself, using DJI Assistant 2 3rd one is the 2nd flight, that was totally out of control. I...

    Nearly had a flyaway today

    Will do....apologies for delay.I almost took Spark out for a repeat performance...but used time to actually have Litchi working on an SC, and an M2P.

    Nearly had a flyaway today

    It definitely works on other models. Yet another workflow problem in DJI's product lineup. ;-)
