[QUOTE="Burdman44, post: 52484, member: 3766"] I had a similar issue where my Spark ignored commands, just the opposite problem - rapid/uncontrollable climb instead of dive. Pulled the logs, consulted all the guru's, eventually landed in support. Sent it back, they replaced the whole camera/gimbal assembly (apparently the main camera plays a role in altitude assessment in conjunction with downward looking VPS sensors/camera and they thought it was the problem). Have put in MANY more flight hours since then with no problems.....only caveat is I haven't yet been back to a vicious interference environment like the Punta Cana resort where the problem occurred, so that part is still a question mark. I'd suggest to both JJR71 and Feastie to pull those logs and post them here and on the DJI forum for review by members and admins, and/or start a ticket with DJI support. For the logs, follow the instructions in here (my original problem post): [URL="https://forum.dji.com/thread-124603-1-1.html?pbc=mF6h4ZTt"]Spark does the DR - scary issues...[/URL] ....mirrored on this forum here: [URL="https://sparkpilots.zone/threads/uncommanded-uncontrollable-climb.3496/#post-32462"]Uncommanded/uncontrollable climb[/URL] Good luck!!!
