I use the Samsung Tab A (2019) with my Spark and my iPad Mini 5 with my Mavic Air. Each is wifi’ed to my Samsung Note8+ in in the ‘Hotspot’ mode. I have no issues with either bird in this setup. The larger than phone screens allow my tired ol’ eyes a less painful watch then using just the...

I'm not really sure what may be wrong. I will say that, for myself at least, I have had compatibility issues with Apple and the Spark. I run Apple with my Mavic Air, no problems! BUT, I did have issues with my Spark. I run my Samsung Tab A with my Spark, no issues. This works for me...

HI, welcome to the forum. Problems, eh? Ok, quite possibly the forum can be of assistance. Firstly, we (the forum) need a little more to go on. There are several possibilities. First one I am thinking of is you may be in a "NO FLY ZONE". Secondly, pairing may not have been completed. Is...

I’ve had compatibility issues previously between the Spark and iPad Mini 5. Converse with DJI indicated iPad was nocompatible. Now, I strictly use the Samsung Tab A. Spark controller wire connected to Tab A, Tab A to Note 8 via hotspot WiFi. Mavic Air wire connect to IPad Mini 5 IPad...

Ummm, hi. Welcome to the forum. First, the weight of the Spark is 300g, FAA registration is exempt for under 250g. Second, you are NOT exempt from FAA (and other federal, state, municipalities) regulations. You will still need to register your Spark at: https://faadronezone.faa.gov/#/ . Do...

The big question is $$$ How much will compliance cost me? If I read that correctly, early afternoon yesterday, before I finished my COVID marathon of coffee drinking, I will need a total of four (4) transponders for: One Spark drone One Spark Controller One Mavic Air drone One MA controller I...

Never used Lightroom. Thanks

Have been known to be wrong in the past and will be wrong in the future, most likely. How do you do it?

Absolute correct. Shooting in RAW permits color correction whereas, JPEG, not.
