    Bad range after ios latest update.

    I'm only getting around 11-1200 ft and loses signal. Both same with iOS and Android when before last update range was way better.

    otg cable

    I let drone and rc connect first, you then I turn on WiFi and start app. If ac, rc, and WiFi is all connecting at the same time then start app, I get same results as you with horrible laggy video feed

    Have you weighed them? Are they the same weight? If so, I'm ordering some.

    Spark doesn't impress me...

    The video quality, range, and no latency is the reason most use otg cables. I use a iPad mini2 and a tablet holder. When I first tried to fly WiFi connected, I got strong interference warnings then it tried to fly away for a sec or two then I regained control and landed. Last time without the cable.

    Spark is drifting

    Mines started doing that also. When I'm hovering, the camera or drone seems to yaw left or right. Then when you correct the yaw, it yaws in the other direction.

    Chinese props

    I got the red ones by Anbee and my Spark had erratic behavior. Then it didn't want to land. It hovered about 4 inches from the floor with stick full down for about 7-8 seconds before it landed. I took them straight off. They are lighter and more flexible than OEM blades.

    4.2.8 Go app and IOS

    I use the ipad mini2 and use OTG all the time without any problems. Tried to use WiFi once and I use a tablet holder, almost flew away. Had interference warning. Was almost uncontrollable.

    iPad Cellular Advantage...

    No because you need something with working GPS to walk you to it. If you have a cellphone copy last GPS coordinates on find my drone and paste into Google search and maps will take you to your drone.

    Sport Mode

    Power Spark on, then radio. When they're connected, startup app. When screen showing Spark comes up, press and hold down menu. Three slots in upper right corner. You'll see firmware versions for AC(aircraft) and RC. Newest firmware ends in 0900 for aircraft. Hit that choice to install. Same...

    Yes it is

    That's a firmware issue. I would set spark to factory settings, reinstall firmware (0900), reinstall controller firmware and that should solve your problem.

    Using ipad mini 2 WiFi w/rc

    You're right. That did it. Thanks!
