I love flying. Didn't get to do too much over the summer though. I usually fly out to my uncle's house since he lives out in the country but once the corn got too high I stopped flying. If it went down in a corn field, I'd never find it. Hope you had a good flying season!

I went searching for a backpack yesterday for all my Spark gear but couldn't come up with one I thought suitable. I have one of those hard cases that carries the Spark, RC, 4 batteries (it's about 14"x14"x6"), plus the charger. I also have the DJI soft case with shoulder strap that contains my...

Hello from Janesville!

Yes, I think you double tap the round button and that little menu pops up. It has a 3 second countdown timer and then begins recording. You can also control things like airplane mode, wifi, and yes, the dreaded bluetooth!

I'm sorry, I misspoke. I do actually screen record through the iPad. So much was going haywire yesterday afternoon that I thought I had forgotten to press screen record for that flight. After I landed, I look for that flight on the iPad and thought for sure I hadn't pressed record since I...

Well, you just jogged my memory... I did get a bluetooth warning now that you mention it! I didn't understand why it said that at that moment because it is always turned off. BUT... when I was messing with my Ipad Mini 4 last night to turn on wifi and see if the tablet or the DJI App needed an...

Today was the first day I was able to fly in about 3 weeks. I checked my battery levels and they all registered 3 out of 4 green lights. I always fly on full batteries so I charged them all up to full along with the remote. I also topped off the Ipad 4 mini as well. On one of my last...

Thank you very much for these operation steps. I will definitely take note of them. I was probably doing it wrong this whole time, but I'd start the Spark first and then the R/C... wait for the green light, then start the app. But this was when connecting to wifi. I just ordered my DJI...

I've noticed it's kind of hit and miss lately with lag when connected to Wi-Fi for some reason. Does anyone know if the OEM OTG DJI goggles cable will work for hooking up the controller to my iPad mini? I'm thinking of going this route and using the Lightning cable that came with my iPad mini...

How are you liking the size of your iPad Mini 4? I am very happy with it. I did/do have a few issues so far though. My QR Code scanner doesn't want to turn on in the DJI GO 4 app, and the last time I flew, I had some pretty glitchy video feedback via wi-fi. I just uninstalled and reinstalled...

Thank you for the response and link. If that cable improves information transmission and quality of flight, it would be a worthwhile investment for me. Thanks again!

Can someone school me on the OTG cable? Is this cable used as a direct link from phone/tablet to the R/C for better image transmission, etc? I just bought an iPad mini 4 to use with my Spark but if the quality of flight is improved with this cable, I'd surely invest in one. Thanks in advance...

So a little update. I wasn't able to go to Best Buy yesterday like I had hoped/planned but got a chance to go this evening. I was going to get the 9.7" iPad but when I had them look up their stock for a black one (Space Gray), they didn't have any. I then inquired about the iPad mini 4, if...

Thank you. I was on the fence between Samsung or iPad. Definitely going with the iPad (and pretty sure 9.7") as most of what I've read is it is more compatible, less app crash, maybe a little more user friendly.

I'm still on the fence with 9.7". I did order a mount that will accept one and am waiting for that to come in and test the weight/balance of a similar Samsung Tablet that I have. Still like the idea of the bigger screen though. Thank you.
