Sold on eBay.

DJI Spark quadcopter drone alpine white.... In the "for parts or not working" category. $125 starting bid, or offer. Blaine, WA. Also selling a surface pro 3 with cracked screen. Not a good month for me!

My crashed Spark is for sale on eBay. As stated, DJI wanted $109 to fix it, or you can buy the parts on eBay for much less and repair it yourself. Getting out of the Spark flying hobby, but don't let my misfortune dissuade you from buying my Spark!

Well, Doc, you know how free speech is a priority in PRC....

Run away from the spark. Sudden flyaway with abysmal customer service. Please see my thread Spark flyaway update, response from DJI - Bad news

I have a lot of carefree time on my mavic pro. The mishap with the spark has caused me to look at everything DJI makes with a jaundiced eye.

The log shows the stick movement, but not whether the sticks affected the aircraft. You can see where the drone was oriented at an odd angle when flying toward the tree. I did not orient it that way, nor did I direct toward the tree. It flew on its own.

Pretty disappointing to not want to fly a new drone. Speaks to the quality of dji's mass production and lack of QA. Not to mention their "customer disservice " Never going to buy anything dji again

I would have brought the spark back, if I had control. The problem is that I did not have control of it at that point. The spark was unresponsive to any input, and all I could do was helplessly watch it fly into the tree. Also, regarding DJI, if they sell so many products in English speaking...

Not to keep ranting, but what really burns me is DJI's contention that the crash was caused by "stick error" on my part, because, you know, I throttled down AFTER the Spark flew out of control and struck a tree. Had this caused injury or property damage (other than to the Spark), this would be...

MSinger, The above link did not work? The actual drone is at DJI in Texas (with my controller), waiting to be shipped back to me without being repaired, per my request. The log was pulled from my DJI app. Does this attachment help?

I launched from my back yard, as I have dozens of times with my MP. No magnetic/metal objects nearby. I've never had any magnetic interference with the MP, or any of the 5 or 6 previous drones I've owned - Tarot, DJI, 3DR, etc.

My Spark flew away out of control just after getting an update, and, luckily struck a tree instead of continuing its path toward more populated areas. I complained to DJI and sent the drone to them for evaluation. Here is there reply: Thank you for your patience. This is Ken from Technical...

Thanks! Too late for me, but maybe others will be spared my heartache.
