    Flying DJI spark in Florida

    Whilst not yet true, there is a test coming. However the feeling is that it will be a very lightweight test that is similar to the test that the DJI App sets us at present. The "licence" will be little more that proof of having passed the test. It is likely that the test will be online or in the...

    Spark OTG Cable soon officially supported, probably next Go App Version

    And OTG cable is just that, a cable. What really matters is the protocol implemented over the top of the cable. They have implemented a protocol that works with CrystalSky, however only bits of it worked with the phone app and that was by co-incidence. They have now implemented more on IOS and...

    I cannot get this thing to fly

    Are you talking about the IMU calibration steps? If so, are you are rotating the Spark as shown in the little picture in the app (its not a clear picture and its not clear what it is asking you to do)

    Moving gimble to point forward

    Tell him, as suggested by someone else to gently touch the gimbal to try and move it. Also gently rock the spark to see if gimbal tries to compensate for movement. Bedtime here, so good luck

    Moving gimble to point forward

    It's not a fine control, it's the main control. Should nod like a donkey. Full control from looking down to looking forward.

    Moving gimble to point forward

    Sorry to persist with the basic question, have you tried the Gimbel up down control, the one on the remote, left side, at the back, the thumbwheel.

    I mean the gimbal control, not calibration

    Moving gimble to point forward

    Gimbal should work in beginner mode, it's something else. With it on the ground, not flying, you should be still able to moved the gimbal using the gimbal control

    Moving gimble to point forward

    When you say adjust on the remote, I assume you mean the left thumb wheel? Is it in sport mode?

    Insurance for lost drone?

    In the UK, check with your house contents insurer. A straight loss or breakage is often covered under "Personal Possessions" - I know LV and Aviva household insurance does cover drones

    Vibrations in video - again on new replacement unit

    Is this the frame rate issue? Are you using iMovie or final cut Pro? If so you have to convert from 29.98 variable to fixed 29.97 frame rate

    Transfer Photos and Video to Phone

    Sorry, I meant "import" ( top left) not sync.

    Transfer Photos and Video to Phone

    Go into the go 4 app with the spark powered on and WiFi connected. In the app go into Editor at the bottom. Select "Album" which will show the thumbnails of the pictures. If you then select the picture (or video) you can then download the original. If it is not the main phone used to fly then...
