    Counter drone is emerging business

    That was just a matter of time. Like you said the law breakers mess it up for those who follow the rules.

    Gimble

    I did have that problem of overload in normal mode but used some CPU dust-off to clear out any "stuff" that might be causing friction. My problem is when I slide Sparky left or right the gimbel doesn't stay horizontal with the horizon. My video then tilts to the side, but when I hold Sparky in...

    A few photos from northern Wisconsin and Minnesota

    Wonderful pictures. The joy of fall in Wisconsin, the most beautiful time of the year. Might I ask how high you took Sparky in order to get those shots?

    What do new UK drone rules mean for Spark?

    Best ship spotting of the year so far

    Great footage. Impressed you kept one of the ships in the frame as you rotated. What mode were you in while taking these shots?

    Spark not recording to SD card

    Tablet

    Drone jammer

    I can see that being an issue. Best thing would be for the drone to go RTH then then could run it back to the perpetrator. On the down side, how long before that technology is out there and Google drones get intercepted with their goodies onboard? There will be Sky Pirates now instead of Porch...

    Need help

    Welcome to the Spark community Bud. Overall it's a pretty amazing hobby drone. Agreed with what's been already said, look at the videos and there some excellent ones out there. I myself tried my S6 Samsung and it worked ok but fat fingers covered the screen. I'm now using an old S4 tablet and...
