[QUOTE="infamousevans, post: 30295, member: 6425"] I think honestly one of the most annoying things with the [I][B]Spark[/B][/I] is the occasional lag/skipping with the video feed. Can any experienced pilots help me with some advice? I really appreciate your feedback. It's been killer so far. Here is some of my info in case your wondering: Firmware for the Remote/Drone and Batteries is all up to date iOS 11 Operating System (iPhone X)... brand new and loving it I only fly with the remote/wifi I live in fairly small suburb, literally no tall buildings. Homes, fields etc Some people mentioned/YouTube videos that switching to OTG cable is an [U][B]immediate[/B][/U] fix for the latency on the feed + immediate boost with the signal. This really interested me, however I also read it is not supported anymore, and also not a simple plug+play. Can anyone explain how to do this? Do I need to downgrade the drones firmware? Do you flat suggest suggest against it? I also heard that my SD card is a big impact with video feed skipping. Caching during flight, and also not using a good speed SD card will also cause video latency. Is this true? Should I focus on this as well? Finally, being sure all of my blue tooth devices are off? Someone mentioned going into airplane mode? If I do this won't it disconnect my phone from the remote and kill the feed? Being it shuts off WiFi? Again, thank you for all of your info! [/QUOTE]
