[QUOTE="Multikoe, post: 65772, member: 12927"] I have been trying to understand the basics behind the phone-controller-spark connection. Maybe someone can help me with this. These are the question I have: - The phone connects to the controller by WiFi (the controller emits its owb wifi network, with its own SSID). Correct? - The controller connects to the Spark by using a WiFi signal. Correct? - Question: is this a WiFi network broadcasted by the Spark or by the controller? I think it is the Spark, as you are also able to connect your phone to the Spark with WiFi - If connected to the controller, the WiFi settings in the DJI Go4 app control the WiFi connection between the controller and the Spark? - If the above is correct, how come I don't see two WiFi networks on my phone, only the controller-Wifi? I am a bit confused as I do not understand why an OTG cable would make any difference to the range of the Spark. The range should be affected by the WiFi signal between the controller and the Spark only. But I am surely missing something :) [/QUOTE]
