    what are the conditions to record video and photos to the phone?

    I have an SD card in the spark. But I have the app set to cache video to the phone as well. I notice that only about 50% of the time it will save video or photo to the phone as well. For example, my most recent flight list from today: Screenshot_20180613-020623 by PhotoGD posted Jun 13, 2018...
