[QUOTE="Tom Croley, post: 41431, member: 3843"] When using AP, it is pretty easy to lay out a course that out ranges the limitations of the Spark. Keep the limitations in mind and always be thinking, "What would I do if I lost contact right NOW." Could I fly home using just the sticks? It is nice to have the RTH feature to fall back on but what if that does not work for some reason? I was flying a test waypoint mission the other day and during the mission, I was experimenting with changing the focus options on the fly....tweaking this and tweaking that...trying different methods. Suddenly the app just crashed...but I could see the Spark as a dot in the sky and it just stopped and hovered. In the App settings there is an option to select the behaviour if contact is lost... I have that set to hover. You can set it to RTH, but I don't trust RTH all that much and use it only as a last resort. [/QUOTE]
