vps danger

Hardly a Danger as the subject title depicts (other than the stupidity of flying above cloud floor which is the real danger ). Well documented in the manual not to fly in fog/clouds.
 
Looks great, but not worth losing a spark. Hope it survived. Always turn off the sensors when flying I fog.
 
I was wondering, in case the drone is stuck in the clouds, would it be possible to let it "land" so it shuts the engines down and the spark starts to fall and then when it's out of the clouds, restart the engines with the remote trick?
 
I think we all know what happened, he got close to getting it back but gravity won and it dropped from looks to be over 100 feet into grass and mud. Rookie mistake being that you can't turn off the bottom VPS on the spark. Great footage, not worth the price of a spark. I hope someone buys that video from you for about $399 lol.
 
You should decent in tornado pattern(funnel/diagonal),you were going straight down with horizontal pattern caused the fog build-up on vps sensor
