[QUOTE="wsalopek, post: 20026, member: 1568"] It works for me on a Galaxy Note 4, and a NVidia Shield K1. The cable can be the problem...seems like not all OTG cables work...but most do...try reversing the cable...it's the controller that is the "host"...that's unusual, as usually, we associate the PHONE as being the host. I turn on the Spark and the controller, wait for them to connect, then plug in the cable...with Android, the first time the cable is used, it'll ask you what application you want to associate with that device...I chose DJI Go 4...so now each time I plug in the OTG cable, DJI Go starts automatically. I use this cable: [URL]https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M1K8B1W/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1[/URL] This one did NOT work...no idea why...too bad, as it's the right length and it's micro usb to micro usb...nice clean setup: [URL]https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M5GZ3N0/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1[/URL] Also be advised that a couple "regular" USB cables did not work for me with a given OTG cable...what I mean is...see the first cable I suggested?
