[QUOTE="savage 3006, post: 52685, member: 9276"] The Spark will auto switch to ATTI mode in the following situations: [B]1)[/B] The Spark is experiencing some type of compass-related error and the Spark determines it cannot safely hold its horizontal position. This most commonly occurs when taking off near a magnetic metal object [I](e.g. rebar in concrete sidewalk)[/I]. If you take off in this situation, the controls will likely not respond as expected [I](even if you are aware of the Spark's orientation)[/I]. You should attempt to land your Spark as quickly as possible. To prevent this from occurring, make sure there are no magnetic metal objects near the Spark while it's powered on. The DJI GO app will sometimes alert you of this magnetic interference by displaying a message at the top of DJI GO. No message is not a sign that all is okay though. Before taking off, you should verify that the red aircraft symbol on the map in DJI GO is pointing in the same direction as the Spark [I](and that it's not slowly rotating)[/I]. [B]2)[/B] If the Spark is not connected to enough GPS satellites or loses the connection to satellites it was previously connected to [I](like when flying around tall obstacles)[/I], it could auto switch to ATTI mode. When flying in ATTI mode in this situation, you'll have to manually control the horizontal position of the Spark since it won't use its GPS data to auto hold its horizontal position. Your Spark will drift along with the wind if you do not keep on the sticks to counteract the drifting. Controlling the Spark in this situation is quite easy if there is no wind. However, if the wind is strong, you might have a lot of trouble getting your Spark back to the home point or to a safe landing location. Not from me but msinger well known here. also go to the search icon and you will find a lot of info on ATTI mode hope this helps.
