after battling with registering I couldn't resist a first flight of my new Spark...
here's the situation:
using a phone for control
indoors, light fading,
9ft ceiling height
took off from a small, low, table
hovered around 5 ft,
took some shots of the Spark with a camera,
decided to grab hold of drone to tilt it and turn off props,
- it sensed my hand and went higher,
while I considered my options it drifted closer to the ceiling and I started to worry about it touching the ceiling and damaging itself.
I grabbed it and tilted it down to stop props
I turned off the power and reflected how badly prepared I had been for a first flight.
What could I have done to avoid any of the above and landed it safely/stopped the props?
Go easy on me I was just trying out my brand new acquisition...
Cheers for any help.
