Man, I've had the same problems and I'm on your side. To remind if you did not follow: “I'm not saying no problem with GPS but also I am not confident to conclude. Having experience with DJI support that would be the expected response.” - just to get ready - appreciate this.

What makes you so confident about the warranty? I already spent a “hard time” with DJI support. My case was different but they finished it with even more obviously misleading explanation and nothing helps. You can see here: Drone behavior in ATTI mode

:) Somewhat out of topic question: There are .DAT files saved in the phone - \dji.go.v4\FlightRecord\MCDatFlightRecords Are they useful?

Accept my apologies and forgive my disinformation. Being new to the forum I did not want to offend anyone, I just tried to help.

I'm not saying no problem with GPS but also I am not confident to conclude. Having experience with DJI support that would be expected response. In this forum DJI SPARK forum there are people who are pro in analyzing these logs. Open a thread, explain the problems, put the links and ask for help.

Two more things to keep in mind: OTG cable connection is not supported by DJI and in warranty case can break things down. In ATTI mode Spark behaves more erratically and not always as expected.

In all three logs I can see some factors from the surrounding environment which can influence good GPS reception - buildings, trees, power lines, antennas. When big part of horizon is blocked this somewhat explains slow home point recording on the ground. You may have already noticed that...

Select 2-3 of logs which represent flights in different but clear open areas. Upload them here: DJI Flight Log Viewer Bookmark and share newly generated pages. I can look at them.

My experience was exactly the same and I think that there’s an issue with the unit. Another set up wouldn’t influence the GPS. Unfortunately I lost my Spark (caused by another issue) and I was not able to verify it. I would suggest you to clarify the things by independent analysis of your log...

Thanks for the replies! They all are very helpful. Of course there has never been anything on top of Spark. :-)

Hi, I wanted to discuss the GPS reception capabilities of Spark. I compared it to my old Phantom 3. Here are my observations: Being at one place – flat terrain with some trees and small buildings around – P3 records the Home point about 30 seconds after turning on, while Spark is not able to...
