[QUOTE="Decado, post: 76523, member: 14923"] Graywoulf has the right of it. Not even touching on legalities regarding height AGL, the enhanced WiFi used by the Spark and the Mavic Air is not in the same league as Occusync or even the older Lightbridge. Antenna orientation is paramount and directly (or nearly so) overhead seems to give the worst results. I'm in Australia so on CE standard for 2.4Ghz and SRRI for 5.8 which is lower than FCC, I find that flying out and away at a 45º angle (until reaching the maximum allowed 400FT) my spark(s), I have four in the company inventory, start to get flakey at around 675M-725M over water which is pushing the boundary of "line of sight" anyway so I'm not much fussed in increasing it. Regardless of DJI's position of whether it's supported or not I've found in recent tests that using the OTG cable (even on my technically unsupported Apple device) extends range a little but stability and latency are HUGELY improved over using WifI link to the controller.
