So, I was flying around with new parameters on my Spark just trying to have some fun, when I landed I checked my top speed it was 48.5! And with all that the motors and battery weren't all that hot. World Record maybe???

It would have to be tailwind, or have some sweet modification on the spark. Tri-blade props, bigger motors, 4 cell battery........ : )))))
 
I managed to get 71.0 kmh or 44.1 mph, but Idid have quite a tail wind..:)

You could try doing this with your Spark...

Lol, I do fly race quads. And there was no tailwind just modified flight controller parameters.
 
60 degree tilt and thanks for the suggestion!
Had mine to 55.. got 42-ish mph.
But it was too extreme.
Was scared it would flip mid-air.
Lots of errors too..

I'm back to stock parameters and 4.1.15+ and happy cruisin in cinematic..
 
Thanks, also what kinda errors were you having? My Spark wasn't really near flipping at all.
Had some "Propulsion has been limited to ensure battery health"
Probably too fast voltage drop.
Going up at 10 m/s and comming down at 10 m/s is just fun ones.
Had lots of Speed, Yaw and Compass errors.. Always lost downlink when returning from 1km+...

The modded Lite version gives me everything I need, and more!

Hi...what is the "modded Lite" version? Stock, or other?
I'm familiar with modifying the Spark through Assistant 2 (mostly Yaw, and atti mode to replace sport mode). I am going to try FARM mode (9) for atti with GPS. curious as to what that is as well.
