I'm going to have a chat with these guys in a few days Drone Precision Landing: World's Smartest Vision Landing Solution regarding the precision landing. I'm not sure if they have it ready to go for Spark, if anyone has used them before please let me know.

Is there an app that does ALL of these autonomously - turn on the drone at a pre-defined time - take-off at a pre-defined time - fly the drone along a predefined path - land - turn off - repeat I'm looking at keeping the drone charged using a charging station in a separate post, so please...

Focusing on one thing at a time - I'm concerned about automating the turn-off -> charge -> turn-on as I haven't tried charging the Spark when it is turned on. At the moment, I can only think of having a mechanism that holds the spark and performs a mechanical double click on the back - not...

One example would be to have it go up once every 15 minutes for a 2-3 minute flight and spend the other 12 minutes resting and recharging. I haven't done the calculations so it might be a longer rest with shorter flights, however the idea is the same. For more frequent flights I'm also...

That's a good analogy.

Hi Spark 317 and edkrisiak, thank you for your answers. The use case I have is letting the drone take off and land continuously throughout the day from the top of a building, taking photos of the same scene and feeding these photos to a cloud server (I'm assuming Litchi might do part of this)...

Is there an autonomous charging solution for spark on the market? I've noticed that the portable charging station charges the spark with a battery attached through a contact on the 2x2 metal grid on the battery itself. So if the spark landed and was positioned over this contact then it should be...
