I agree that it's a good regulation but I work in the computing industry operating retail stores, repair centres, IT support centres and web hosting & email management for hundreds of companies. Unfortunately I know GDPR all too well and after a year of having to deal with it from a business...

I'm sure that's a possibility but I'm in the U.K so likely due to some GDPR bollocks they wouldn't be able to provide to location. Another note, seeing as I had to provide my serial number when they was processing a replacement, I'm hoping they would have blacklisted it.

Hi all, final update from me here. It appears that someone has taken the drone when its preformed its come down as a search spanning 4 days using drones and 6 people has came up empty. DJI have been great and issued a replacement. Thanks for everyones help! See you on DJI Mavic Drone Forum...

Quick update all, after the third day of searching it looks like the drone is gone. The private allotments came up empty and a decent search around surrounding woodland turned up empty. After asking many people, getting the story in a local newspaper and shared across social media the search...

I wanted a Mavic for a while but brought a Spark to get into the whole drone stuff. I'm not going to buy a Mavic just to look for the spark ?

That's what I'm thinking as well. My predictions were right and it's absolutely flooded with rain here. I think today's search will be a bit more eventful. I'm considering getting a Mavic 2 ZOOM to help with the search due to its long distance. I don't want to have another spark incident.

The local newspaper has published an article. Unfortunately after another 1hr30m search today, the spark was still unable to be found. Me and my boss are heading out tomorrow with his drone and we're going to follow the projected estimated route of my drone to see if we can find it. Heavy...

By looking at the flight log it looks like sustained wind unfortunately. It's private grounds that I can't get access to either and it's due to rain tonight. I've only got 1 hour before I have to head home. Due to it being in ATTI mode and being 500ft in the air being blown by some amount of...

So with regards to what msinger said, it's unlikely that it just landed in that area? I've been looking around the area but have come up with nothing so far. It was 500ft in the air when it lost connection so it could have gone quite the distance.

Unfortunately I'm currently at work so I cannot look at this time but as soon as I'm available I will get over there and check. Thanks for your help on this I will update you soon.

Here is the log: https://www.phantomhelp.com/LogViewer/PF7FL8F0KR04KYZR5NOJ/

It has recorded where the last GPS was but it was 500ft in the air, had 5:30 of flight time left and was 300 ft away from it's home point. For whatever reason the controller lost signal, even after running to where it said it was, the controller never regained signal.

Today I lost my spark. It was a sunny day and wind conditions were fine but as the drone was flying around it looks as if the wind had just lifted it up. It went to over 500ft. After about 1 minute of this happening the drone and the lost connection with the controller and defaulted to return to...
