    Convert Hangar360 to flat image

    I guess, that would be the right way to get a "tiny planet" image... I'm looking for an image that I can upload to Facebook where you can scroll around using the gyroscope in the phone... What preset do I have to choose in ICE for that and will ICE set the right EXIF tags?

    Convert Hangar360 to flat image

    When I want to process the pictures taken with Hangar360 in ICE, which panorama type do I have to choose to get a proper panoramic image? I tried spheric, but the bottom part is distorted :(

    Convert Hangar360 to flat image

    Apparently, this software does the same as Hangar360: Stitching single pictures into a panorama. I'm looking for a way to get the panoramic picture out of Hangar360. Any ideas?

    Convert Hangar360 to flat image

    Hey, I was wondering if there's a chance to convert an image processed by Hangar360 to an image that I can store in my photo library. I shot a panorama with 21 single images and try to process it with Hugin and some other third-party tools for the Mac but Hangar360 did the best job...

    My Spark took a bath...

    It survived! I reassembled it again, checked it thoroughly and took it for a short test flight. The only thing I had to adjust was the gimbal roll. It was under water for approx 10min (salt water) so I’m really lucky it didn’t take any damage! All water indicator stickers inside were red... I’m...

    Requirements to leave a footprint

    I already trid to kill the app, synchronize all records (rather than just 3 months) and logged off and on again... The flight shows up in the flights list, but the flights count, growth of value and the total distance didn't increase.

    My Spark took a bath...

    Forgot to mention that the RC beeped and blinked red when I turned it on. It turned out that the joysticks had to get calibrated (for whatever reason) so I did that and flew around the beach in sport mode, which went fine. Just wanted to mention this pre-flight joystick calibration, in case the...

    My Spark took a bath...

    ... in the Baltic Sea :( I took a flight (my 50th flight btw) along the shore of the Baltic Sea and wanted to take a pano shot at approx 300ft agl. The RTH height was set to 20m as you can also see in the flight log below. When the pano aborted due to "camera error" I decided to activate RTH...

    Requirements to leave a footprint

    Hey, I've been on a very short flight in France and it didn't record a footprint for that country. Is there a minimum time or distance to gain a footprint? I also noticed that my "total flights" counter is stuck at 49, even after syncronizing my flight records. What am I doing wrong? Do I have...

    Maximum vertical speed

    It was a bright, clear day so clouds weren't an issue. Maybe it's because of what "RedneckMechanic" mentioned before.

    Maximum vertical speed

    Actually, I was descending from 153m so I guess that's within the tolerance. Maybe I underestimated the battery runtime, but I thought 20% would be enough as for 3m/s I would be landed in less than a minute. With 0.7m/s it took me almost 4min to land. It was a bit windy so maybe the wind slowed...

    Maximum vertical speed

    I went to a lake last weekend and wanted to take a vertical shot from above, so I ascended to 160m and took some pictures. I started to descend at around 20% battery level but the Spark wouldn’t go faster than ~0.7m/s so I had a hard time landing before the battery would die. It landed safely in...

    Replacement props, which ones to choose?

    I guess you're all right... Don't be pennywise with the wrong things. I bought the cheap ones because I was curious about the build quality and it's not as good as the original. You can see the difference in the pictures (cheap one on the left, orginal to the right). The surface of the cheap...

    Notre Dame Cathedral

    Limited time because it wasn't allowed to fly there? Very nice result for such little effort! :)

    Crashed my Spark today...

    RTH altitude was set to 40m and at the time to connection loss it was right at 40m so it didn't adjust altitude and just changed the direction and went towards me. If it had changed it to 41m or higher it would have avoided the star on top of the church.
