    Battery Eject!!

    DJI should include this "clip" in their kits. I bought one when I got the drone and never flew without it.

    Flying while sailing?

    Taking off from a moving boat when GPS is enabled can be tricky :cool: The boat will move and not ever stand still, while the drone is going to want to stay put at the same spot. This can cause several issues, so be careful . Especially when using a Spark. The Phantom models etc you can just...

    Its going to be scorching hot - safe to fly?

    This was right after I swapped to a new different battery, so I don't see it. Motors were very hot.

    Its going to be scorching hot - safe to fly?

    I had an incident flying in 90 plus degrees weather. After taking a few precaution it has not happen to me again.:) Here's my tip - After you fly that 1'st battery, let the drone sit and cool off completely before you take off again. Don't do this in front of an AC or whatever, let it cool off...

    Don’t fly your drone in Atti

    Before I went out and purchased that Spark , I picked up smaller cheap drones and learned how to fly line-of-sight with no GPS. I think that this is something everyone should do to learn and get some experience. It's imperative to know how to fly line of sight. (*and fun as well !)

    Spark has a heating issue?

    Hi Guys, So no iPad mini for me. I use a Samsung S8 when I fly. I have come to a conclusion that this was all due to over heating. When flying in 90F+ weather, you need to let the bird rest and cool off in between batteries or you will risk overheating them motors and or the spark itself. Just...

    Spark has a heating issue?

    N Not at all - but still, motors and body was screaming hot... I think it just was too hot for it to sit and hover. I was not flying it fast or high neither. I can only imagine them spark owners out in Vegas and Arizona.. They must have stories regarding this issue for sure, if this is the...

    Spark has a heating issue?

    Yes Sir - Fans are revving up as it boots and all is well. I honestly think it just over heated. Same thing happened after letting it cool off for a good while inside. After flying a while, as soon as I gave a little throttle to climb, it dropped ...when I let go of the sticks she started to...

    Spark has a heating issue?

    Hi everyone - I flew my awesome Spark today. It was about 88-90 F outside. Everything was going great until I started on the 2nd battery. All of a sudden when I pushed sticks to go up.. it abruptly descended, I tried to re adjust using small adjustments and all off a sudden it just dropped like...
