Hey,
I was wondering, what's the best way to download the recorded videos and photos from the Spark? Actually, there are three ways to do it:
1. Eject the microSD card, stick it into an adapter and plug it into your pc/laptop (almost instantly)
2. Connect the Spark to the RC, connect the mobile device to the RC and start the wireless download (400kb/s)
3. Bring the spark into the "direct wifi" mode and connect your mobile phone to the Spark directly (4500kb/s)
So way 1 would be the fastest way, but you have to organize your videos and photos manually. When I use 2. or 3. and transfer the files directly to my iPhone, it will sync with my MacBook and the footage will automatically show up in my photos app.
Way 2 would be the best for transferring just a few photos, because it's the slowest way of all. The advantage is that you don't have to switch the Spark to the "direct wifi" mode (2 beeps) and afterwards switch it back to RC mode (1 beep).
At the moment, I stick to way 3 when I have to transfer more footage. It still takes some time and I have to switch modes on the Spark, but this way panorama shot will transfer to the dji go app and I don't have to manage the footage manually on my iDevices.
Is there "one way for everything" and I'm just missing that or do you really have to chose one of the ways mentioned bades on the amount of files you want to transfer? In general I think transferring media from the Spark is a big pain-in-the-butt or I'm just doing something wrong. Looking forward to your hints on that topic.
