Interesting you bring up landing on concreate causing the compass to freak out. I was trying my hardest to land on a park bench in the mountains. The bench was all wood, but I didn't realize it was on top of a big concrete box. My Spark spun just like that. I thought it was me or my remote...

Won't really have to worry about AT&T 5g towers... :eek:

Oddly mine cancels using the sticks. Like I send it out for a quick shot and realize "we're going to the trees" and I up stick it stops. It also kills any recording it was doing. I noticed I lost so many QS's because i thought I could take over once it started it's return back but it seems to...

I guess you can't force reflash the remote. Lest I can't find a way, so I reflashed the spark, 3 times (45 min I coulda been eating ice cream..) Whats strange is I turned off wifi on my phone, was hooked up via OTG and just took off in my house (after the reflashing) and hovered. I panned and...

Yeah. I've caught the remote going red quite often. I tried flying with my phone only (which was what I was planning on doing in Hawaii in a couple months, but that's up in the air now) and it does drop with just that as well. Stops and hovers and then recovers. I jumped all over the 5.8...

I was up at my place in the north this last weekend and needed to run the Spark around the top level of my cabin to check out some windows I might have issues with. I was having a heck of a time getting sat lock. I finally found a spot where I could get enough to take off. I took off and 1st...

It appears I can get the CSV of the most recent flight that it dropped signal on when I was just hovering. Trying to figure out how to get that off my phone now.

I'm in the US, have done the calibrations as well. I'm not pointing the tips at the craft, I did pick up on that a while back. What I find odd is that the recordings to the SD card are also getting messed up and choppy. I almost always take off with a fully battery and remote. But i don't turn...

I have LOTS of IOS devices but only access to the 4.3.37 app Can I fly with just the remote (yeah that's a complete noob question which I'm sure the answer is "yes sure you can") without it possibly flying away on me if the signal is lost. I don't know if the phone gps set the RTH point and...

I fly a small area around 100yardsx 100 yards kind of often. It's city and has a ton of wifi in the area. I've switch channels all over and it still happens there. Yesterday I flew staight up in the middle of that area about 60 ft and hovered, after about 10 seconds it dropped. Then came back...

Hi all. I picked up a refurb spark about 2 months ago. Logged a few flights but from day one I lose signal to the bird.I used to think it was wifi interferance but I've switched channels all around with no luck as well. I've always been on the latest firmware and IOS go4 app.I use an OTG cable...

You can roll back if we can find someone with it on their phone. They would need to back up to the computer then could copy thing somewhere 250megs is free to share.. Let me look around because it's been plaguing me since I got it. Anyone happen to have the .ipa or could you back up to a...

I've only ever been on 37, and always had video issues. You can't roll back unless you have a copy of that app backed up on your machine. The app store only keeps the current one. If this is the reason I've been struggling with my sparks video i will be a sad panda.

Yeah that's the thing. I've had the remote go red quite a few times. I switched channels to 156 I believe as 149 was always noisy. More often then not if I don't power off and back on the remote after swapping the spark battteries the remote connection is horrible. I end up grounding and...

Doesn't that require the drone to be set up on 1 beep, not 2? 3 Being the reset. I don't see the drones wifi if my controller is on, but it's possible. It's also quite possible that my body blocks a lot of signal. I'm kinda thick.
