Are you happy with the overall performance and quality of the Spark? My only issue so far is it seems like two batteries last about a total of 13 minutes.

Appreciate the information. Haven't had the opportunity in the last few days to fly anywhere else but my yard. I'll be interested to hear your thoughts on the Spark was well.

Agreed

Please keep me posted on what areas you find out to be successful fly zones.

I called the city of Scottsdale and spoke with Jonathan in the Parks Department. Here are a list of the no fly parks. Plus we have can't fly within 5 miles off Scottsdale Airport & Sky Harbor as you know. I haven't had a chance to fly in a park yet, but I am thinking there is a chain of parks...

I just got it to work. I think I was releasing it to soon.

When I palm launch my Spark with gesture control it descends to about a foot off the ground and hovers. I either stick my foot under it to ascend or use the controller. Any idea why this might be happening. I am not seeing any error codes.

Just got it to work. I appreciate all the help from everyone. Andy

I did that but it still was stuck in beginner mode. So I am wondering if you have too be a certain distance from the home point to enable sports mode?

When I move the switch it doesn’t do anything. Do you have to be a certain distance from the return to home point to activate sports mode?

So far I have mostly been flying outside in my yard. I do get a lot of ATTI warnings. I've noticed that when I switch from beginner to sport there is absolutely no difference in the flight characteristics. Couldn't get a clear answer from DJI support. Does it have anything to do with the prop...

I have a constant warning that says no GPS signal when I try and fly inside. As soon as I step two feet out of the house I am fine. Any way to boost the signal on the inside without spending a fortune?

Just got it working. Thanks for the help.

I had some help getting the Spark setup yesterday and the guy said after countless tries it might not be possible because of the lack of a cellular connection. Thanks for letting me know.

I use an iPhone X as my everyday phone with Verizon. I have a backup iPhone 6S that is not connected to a cellular line that I'd like to use exclusively with the Spark. It doesn't want to connect to the 6S with the Wifi on. Is what I am doing even possible without a cellular connection? Andy
