    Max distances with rc

    Almost lost my Spark

    You need to use DJI Assistant 2 and download the Flight log off the AC

    Almost lost my Spark

    Looking at the data there wasn't any loss of GPS signal but the FC detected an error "YAW_ERROR_LARGE" and when errors like this or compass errors occur then the FC no longer uses the GPS signals it is receiving and the aircraft is put in to Non GPS 'ATTI' mode, basically giving total control...

    DJI Flight Record data files

    Hi there, Thank you Kilrah, I have converted the data already in to a readable format I am trying to decipher the channel / parameter names It looks like the Spark (therefore all DJI products) convert longitude and latitude data real time in to the displayed distance value as it doesn't log...

    DJI Flight Record data files

    OK... I am starting to unravel the numerous channels, the flight 'time' channel I have found and think represents the flight time from start to finish is: OSD.flyTime I have plotted quite a few channels against this now and it seems entirely plausible, starting with the individual battery...

    DJI Flight Record data files

    Hi I have managed to extract the .dat / .txt files from my Spark Flight Records There is lots of data for numerous logged channels, does anyone have a list of what each channel represents, I appreciate some channels have plain English descriptions but I wanted to start by finding the default...

    Merry Christmas from the UK

    So I am 1 week in to Spark ownership, I've flown 6 times in total, I have 2 batteries so tend to fly 1 battery at low level, say 2 metres from the ground and try to fly point to point, I live near some football (Soccer for the US members!) pitches in a sports field so I just fly to and from...

    Merry Christmas from the UK

    So I did my first couple of test flights today, I had a minor deviation which was an enforced IMU calibration which wasn't helped by the poor GO 4 app instructions but after that I flew the Spark for the first time, venturing in to sport mode for a few minutes on the second battery flight. I...

    Merry Christmas from the UK

    Sorry.. Yes I am at .900 FW But 4.1.18 I assume that will disable some functionality when I fly properly tomorrow for the first time?

    Merry Christmas from the UK

    Having just got the Spark and realising that I am already at a firmware level that I need to undo just to use OTG worries me, I've read too many posts about just using WiFi giving a flaky connection but I thought OTG fixed this so I went ahead

    Merry Christmas from the UK

    600m with OTG? How far with just WiFi? DJI claims are obviously without OTG as they don't support OTG?

    Merry Christmas from the UK

    I've had more than a few problems but I can return the Spark, so what's the uk status on where and how far you can fly? I am a little worried by the recent OTG block from DJI but I will spend the next few days seeing how my iPhone performs without it and decide... What's the consensus? How far...

    DJI Spark / RC / GO 4 / iPhone / Goggles connection topology

    Thank you all for taking the time to reply. I learn a little more each time. I have watched several Youtube reviews and would like to check a few things they said: It was a French Youtube video ('Paladrone' I think?) that mentioned If you don't connect a phone or tablet device and use the GO...

    DJI Spark / RC / GO 4 / iPhone / Goggles connection topology

    Hi there from the UK, Sorry this is just my second post and is so long but I am trying to be as clear and specific as I can. I'm here seeking clarification on the Spark and how it connects to it's controller (RC) / iPhone in order to make a decision on getting DJI Goggles.... My first...
