The one other thing I'd like to mention is you might look into a tracking system. I have the Marco Polo and it works pretty good, depending on the terrain your in. Even in bad terrain, people have found their drones, by gridding their site and/or getting higher up to get a better reading...

What I'm wondering here is you lost connection, but then you said the GPS failed and it went into ATTi mode. I haven't had this happen yet, thank God, but if you still have Atti mode, technically you should be able to control it somewhat. Again, not having this ever happen to me, yet, I can't...

Really nice video, Rocco. It really has a lot of snap and pizzazz to it. I'm still amazed at how good of video the Spark has, at least visually to me. I was getting scared when you got so close to the water, but looks like you made it. Nice shots of the rowing team also. Marc.

Andre, you just mentioned something that struck me, and that's the idea, that once your out there 100 feet or so, the noise diminishes quite a bit. I love all these responses were getting on this thread. They're very intuitive and seem to make a lot of sense. Unless DJI or someone, comes up...

Ok, just for fun. Let's upgrade Spark to a Rolls Royce. How about, occusync, 4k video, aperture settings, 3 axis gimble and sensors on all 6 sides. Oh, and let's upgrade the battery to make it fly 25 minutes. You may think I'm being sarcastic here, but honestly I'm only trying to be a little...

There's a couple of really intriguing videos on the 4 hawks. One guy went over 2 miles, with a 4 hawks, but I think he was flying a Mavic Air. I would agree that it might be overkill to mod up a spark, but then again, why not, especially if it really would give you not only more distance, but...
