By design, the Spark needs to be further than 20 meters from the home point if you want it to return (instead of land).

Check out the "Return-to-Home (RTH)" section of the Spark manual for more details on the RTH feature.
 
So i should fly 20m out then hit the rth button on controller then it should return where i took off?

Not far enough away from homepoint I think
 
Someone in this forum advised i fly 8m high and hover for a while the bottom camera would visualize the home point ie helipad then fly outwards sorry to sound dumb

You should fly more than 20 meters away from the home point.

That person was referring to the Precision Landing feature.
 
So can i perform precision landing on my helipad?
Sure, as long as you record it as your homepoint and you're further than 20m away

Here's what you need to do for Precision Landing to work as designed:

I thought i did all these as i brought even a helipad for this
 
Precision Landing and RTH are different features. You cannot use Precision Landing if your Spark does not return home. And, for that to happen, you must fly further than 20 meters from the home point.
