[QUOTE="PhantomFandom, post: 102849, member: 15128"] Yes that is correct and there actually is a good reason. The goggles work but are not really designed to be used on a Spark. What is happening is that you are replacing your phone, which can relay telemetry and video with a device (googles) which can only view the video output. Basically the controller has no idea that you have a device connected which can help control the drone. As such, you are limited to the same range as if you took off with just the controller and no device connected to it at all. This forces you to maintain the drone within a distance that guarantees VLOS. It's not just the Spark either. Happens exactly the same way on even my P4P unless I have a device connected and use the goggles with the HDMI port. By powering up with a device attached, you are fooling the controller into thinking that it is connected, even though you remove it after everything is powered up. [/QUOTE]
