How would y'all recommend uploading a clip on here? I have several that are mp4 format, but for some reason it won't let me attach it.

I understand this, but that still doesn't explain why my Spark is essentially not flying in trim. I understand that the aircraft will drift with wind when in Sport Mode, but even if drifting, it should be flying in the same direction that the center of the camera is pointing.

It's really noticeable in that video, and that's exactly how my footage is too. It's extremely frustrating that this drone can't fly with it's body oriented exactly straight where I'm telling it to go.

My Spark will not fly straight in Sport Mode. Both the video feed and the actual video recording show that the drone itself is flying several degrees off of where the center of the screen is when I'm going full stick forward in Sport Mode. I'm not sure if this is a problem with the gimbal, a...

Both funny stories. Unfortunately I wasn't recording either -- it would have made for some cool footage.

Earlier today I took my Spark out to the lake to get some footage. Soon after taking off and flying out over the lake, a flock of pigeons flew dangerously close to my drone. I didn't think much of it since birds sometimes fly a bit close, but they turned around again and flew directly at the...

Thanks for the great explanation! Glad to hear there's nothing wrong with my drone!

That's why it's so weird - because there's no yaw axis. But nevertheless, sometimes when I turn it on (with the Spark still on the ground) the feed on my screen will show horizontal movement...weird.

Sometimes after turning my Spark on the video feed on my phone shows that the gimbal is panning slowly to the left or right for a few seconds, then it stops. And this happens before I even take off, so the drone itself is stationary...Has anyone else experienced this? Any solutions?

When taking videos on the Spark, in what situations would one use different shutter speeds? I'm just confused on this, as I really don't know much about photography/videography.

The dates on all of those posts were from around a year ago, so I figured it was outdated information. Thanks for clarifying!

I got my Spark a few weeks ago, and I purchased the OTG cable to use with my iPhone. Since then it has been working well. However, today I saw some comments online about some software updates that essentially made the OTG cable option not viable/less effective than it used to be at some point in...

I got a Spark a few days ago and I've been flying it a ton. I got a little cocky and I was zooming around in sport mode. I got close to a small tree (when I was just hovering around it actually), and a rotor got caught in a branch and my spark fell a few feet and landed in the grass. One of the...

I got a Spark a few days ago and I love it -- I've been flying it several times a day since I got it up and running. Today I noticed that it yaws (slowly turns in one direction) when hovering, and it seems to fly slightly slanted when I'm telling it to fly straight (way more noticeable in sport...
