    Washed-out colors in default mode

    Will have to get home and access files. I don’t have comparison shots, but happy to share.

    I don't trust spark

    I treat my Spark as a “selfy” drone. If I want or need to go farther out I fire up my MPP or M2P.

    Drone jammer

    Hopefully RTH would bring the drone home.

    Washed-out colors in default mode

    Agree with filters, but would suggest that for still pics plain ND is all you may need unless you are photographing water and want to see into it (like a coral reef) or if there are unwanted reflections from window glass in buildings.

    FAA Gives Google Rights to Drone Airspace

    Write Amazon. Refuse drone delivery. My house is in an NFZ for 2 airports anyway. Write FAA and contend that all pilots need instrument ratings as they are beyond VLOS ... and that drones used need instant and constant 360 degree visual capability visible to pilots at all times since they are...

    DJI Service Turnaround Time

    I’m not sure of the timeline exactly, but I used DJICare on a crash with my MPP when it was only about 2 weeks old... Hit a tree and fell 50-60’ to the ground. I can tell you that the cause of the crash was pilot error, but that’s why you buy DJICare anyway. Anyway, I contacted them by phone...

    Anbee Colored Propellers for DJI Spark

    Thanks! Understand. Appreciate the response. The colors are a plus. Yeah, knew about the prop removal. I have sent my MPP in under DJICare and they requested props be removed. BTW, My concern/question was raised by some M2 pilots getting a warning something like “excessive current draw” with...

    What do you carry your Spark in?

    When I’m just about and about on the bicycle, hiking, etc I use this on my belt. I have the DJI charging station for the drone and 3 batteries. The station will recharge the batteries once (so get to use the again even if no power. Have that, remote, and accessories in the DJI case for them...

    Anbee Colored Propellers for DJI Spark

    Do you know for a fact? Reference please. On the M2 series the current draw is much higher, some have reported warnings in sport mode. Wonder if DJI can access this type of info from the Spark and void warranty. I don’t know. I do love the price and performance reports.
