    Is there a such thing as a wireless micro sd card reader?

    What I use is a micro SD card to SD card adapter and I also have a micro SD card to USB adapter.

    Explain differences of Litchi and Autopilot?

    Yes, you can. It can auto land on the last waypoint you set. Just make sure the battery doesn't run too low on power during the mission. My drone auto landed about 400 metres from where it should have when the battery level became too low. Not sure how it happened, but somehow the return to home...

    Explain differences of Litchi and Autopilot?

    It's completely autonomous. The mission is uploaded to the drone at the start and it then proceeds irrespective of whether the remote controller is within range or not.

    Explain differences of Litchi and Autopilot?

    I can confirm that waypoints is working nicely on Litchi using the Spark. You just need to sign up as a beta tester on their website to get the beta version as the waypoints for Spark is still in the beta release.

    The obsession with increasing distance...

    It's always nice to be able to fly further on the farm when line-of-sight is a few kilometres and there are no people nearby. That is the only reason I'm against the European limitation on range we have here in South Africa. Also, I don't fully understand why the bigger drones are not really...

    Only 400ft before dropping video signal

    Where in the world are you based? Your location will affect your distance.

    Spark for 3d Land Mapping

    Agreed. I've made a very high resolution composite image from about 100 images with the drone at 80m above ground level, but flying the drone in perfect flight lines isn't easy. So I would really appreciate it if DJI will add waypoint mode for the Spark.

    Help! Almost lost it in ATTI mode!

    I received feedback from the DJI authorized repair centre today and they told me that the issue may have been caused by a solar flare. Sent from my Galaxy A5

    Help! Almost lost it in ATTI mode!

    Make a copy of the MISC folder on the micro SD card, although as I mentioned I think you still need to install the PC software. Just google "DJI Spark Assistant 2 download". Download and install it and as I mentioned, connect your Spark to your computer and open the software. You should see an...

    Help! Almost lost it in ATTI mode!

    Install DJI Assistant 2 for your PC, plug your drone in and you should get a few options. Can't exactly check now as my drone is in for checks, but it allows you to transfer the recent flight logs from your drone to your PC and save it as a .dat file which DJI can inspect.

    Help! Almost lost it in ATTI mode!

    Exactly my question as well. The idea of an uncontrollable drone frightens me. I am going to send the log file in to DJI through the desktop software though.

    Help! Almost lost it in ATTI mode!

    I had a very similar situation the other day. On the ground everything was fine and after takeoff the drone flew for about 2 minutes without problems. I started noticing that even though I aim to fly straight, the drone drifts a little sideways. After about 30 seconds from that point I was...

    Confused of max speed

    Unfortunately I can't help, but yesterday I managed to get a top speed of 55kph with mine.
