[QUOTE="MannyCAM2001, post: 34433, member: 7007"] I love flying over water, but some places are tricky. I fly here in Florida over the Hillsborough River. Very low sometimes, which plays tricks on the bottom sensors. So the Spark will drift up or down, mostly down to correct it’s position relative to what it thinks is the ground. Thats fine, a simple correction on the sticks, but what I didn’t see was a branch that was behind it. My lil gal took an unexpected swim, shorted out the circuit board. I retrieved it and sent it in for repair. I went on youtube to find some kind of safety measure when flying low over water and found it. [MEDIA=youtube]Dy1SvOKzPBk[/MEDIA] Bought it from Amazon.com and found piece of mind. Pretty **** cool. Don’t use them for flying high, but it sure works flying low. [/QUOTE]
