    Looks like my flight logs aren't there either. It makes me think the the dji app was glitching out. Maybe something on my phone? I don't know. I definitely don't trust the Spark like I did before.

    Crash Investigation: Sudden Increase in Speed + Crash

    When it loses GPS signal mid flight and thinks it's in another country and sets it home point somewhere in the arctic circle, good luck getting it back.

    I don't trust spark

    I had a recent incident where mid flight it lost GPS signal, went into atti mode, then updated the home point to some random place. I could control the spark just fine and was bringing it back to me. Before I got it back, it initiated low battery rth and began flying away to its new random home...

    You probably should check that the bluetooth on the Rpi is disabled also.

    I received an update on Android to 4.3.4. Yesterday. I'm not sure what changes effect the Spark. Does anyone have any info or comments about the update?

    NEVER FLY IN FOG

    I'll ignore your rude comment. Here's the problem. Can't fly in the fog, can't fly in the wind, don't fly in the sun youre wings will melt, you're battery is going to explode, don't modify your craft because Dji is perfect. Use otg because Dji isn't perfect. Don't fly at night....bla, bla...
