    Railway Bridge

    Great video although maybe a minute too long. Here”s my opinion of what you did perfectly. Every clip was long enough that the viewer could adsorb the scene. You used the same transition throughout the video. You used dissolve transitions which make for smooth rather than jarring transitions...

    When I had the DJI Spark

    Great video. When you rotate the Spark your video is much smoother than mine. Wonder what you’re doing right that I’m doing wrong

    Has the Spark been discontinued??

    New regs really only affect you unless you're flying near airports. 400 ft max altitude was guidance now it's a regulation, so not much of a change. And nobody has any idea yet what the online exam is going to look like. But, I suspect it won't be that hard other than added emphasis on...

    I Lost My Spark because of 'non fly zone'

    Cautions with Litchi?

    Roger, I fly my Spark Routinely with Litchi. After reading your post I took it out and checked your issue and the Litchi Software shows three selectable lost signal options including Hover, Land, and RTH. I keep it set on RTH. I then flew an eight minute Litchi waypoint mission with the...

    Gimbal Protection

    I have been using a gimbal shield on my Spark but I now charge my Spark with the DJI battery pack. My problem is that the gimbal shield doesn't allow the Spark to sit properly in the battery pack and make contact with the charging connectors. Unlike my Phantom 3 and Mavic, the Spark did not...
