    Distance with spark

    It only helps if you are using an android device because some of them can’t connect to the RC via the 5.8 band and so they cannot connect the spark to the RC on the 2.4 band (which on CE mode will give greater distance). Best thing you can do is join the Facebook group : The Spark Side and get...

    Spark's range?

    If you want to have a much more reliable video signal then your best option in a CE country is to force the rc and spark to operate in FCC mode. Easy to do to and no impact on warranty (I’ve tested that already).

    New Spark, A Few Questions

    Hey Chris, yeah the spark will RTH if your phone switches off just as if u had an RC. The forward OA sensors are infrared on the spark so should not cause an issue. It’s the downward sensors that can get confused if flying low over reflective surfaces. I’ve never turned mine off though but...

    Newbie lost drone please help

    Sorry for your loss! I had an almost identical issue a few months back and after entering ATTI mode my drone took off and ended in a tree. I got mine back eventually and sent it off to DJI. They very kindly replaced it (didn’t have refresh). I’m pretty sure it was all a fault with my compass...

    New User in the UK - OTG or Wifi and which channel

    Hi, if you’re using an iPhone then you don’t need the otg cable. iPhones have both the 2.4 and 5.8 frequencies available so your RC can switch to whatever it needs to be for less interference. For best distance in CE mode u should select a 2.4 channel on the RC at your take off point that has...

    Distance with spark

    Not sure how he got 700m on 5.8 in ce mode. I was out today in a park (surrounded by houses) and got 270m on 5.8 auto mode then manually selected channel 9 and took it to 370m before video went choppy. Prob could have gone further but it would have been taking me over houses. Think the location...

    Distance with spark

    That’s some distance! The joys of FCC mode. We’re lucky to get 500metres here although I’ve just got some parabolic reflectors so I’ll give them a shot and see what I can get in CE mode.

    Distance with spark

    The aircraft control range should be the same provided you are using an OTG cable with the android phone. Think there may be some variation with the image though depending on the amount of bloatware installed and spec of the phone.

    Hi Justin, are you using iOS or Android and what is the version number of the go4 app you’re using?
