[QUOTE="Spark 317, post: 103647, member: 894"] Definitely get a gimbal guard. I don't have a sun shade and depending on which brand you get, it may interfere with the gimbal operation. I'm a fan of the stock prop guards. They are easy to put on and they make the Spark appear larger in flight to possibly thwart off a bird attack and makes it easier to see. If the Spark did crash, they may absorb some of the impact and explode like an Indy car does after impacting a wall, protecting the Spark. The best part is that I can carry the Spark with my pinky finger if my hands are full.:) I had landing gear but hand launch / land all the time. It's so easy. But I don't use an open palm, more of a pinch (like flying a paper airplane) and grab it with a firm grip as I hold the left stick down. Some pilots do a flip with the Spark to kill it but not me. I have the antennae thingy and only used them a few times. I'm not a long distance flyer and tend to stick with the VLOS rule when flying. I usally have a good signal and don't need them. But they are in the bag JIC. A neck lanyard is nice to have. It's a tethered life line for your remote and device. Three apps worth having for your device are UAV Forcast, Airmap, Windy (dot com). UAV Forecast provides weather information with parameters you can set, like the wind speed at 200 feet. Airmap lets know about the Airspace. Windy is an app that shows the wind blowing as a soothing graphic over a map verses just an arrow pointing a direction. Good to know if the Spark goes into Atti-Mode and wants to ride with wind for a while unless you have control of it. The bundled kits are neat, but you only need a few things. [/QUOTE]
