Just took my Spark out to play for the first time since January and delighted to discover that OTG is back! I'd pretty much given up on the Spark since flying with 5.8Ghz wifi in CE was so terrible, but now with OTG again it's like having my drone back all shiny and brand new :). Maybe I don't...

Every. Single. Time. I even managed to hit an isolated 6ft laundry pole at full speed in a huge garden. I would never have managed it intentionally. Still, the Spark is a sturdy beast - just span a few times and stabilised, no damage. Something about sport mode makes all sense go out the window...

It's much more of an issue in Europe where without OTG we are forced to use 5.8G wifi connection between controller and Spark, which is extremely restricted on transmission power by CE regulation. I can barely fly 200m without losing connection and RTH. With OTG I could switch to 2.4G wifi which...

In the DJI Go 4 app under Image Transmission Settings (via the HD 'button') you can change the wifi channel. This refers to the wifi channel between the aircraft and the controller. By default it uses 5.8G because that is far more powerful than 2.4G in the US under FCC regulation. In Europe...
