[QUOTE="windryder, post: 65073, member: 12597"] [MEDIA=youtube]mY9hzd6MeVc[/MEDIA] Flying my Spark at the local park the other day the Spark went into atti mode. When I launched I was connected using the OTG cable from controller to my iPhone. I had 17 Satellites and hovered until the home point was recorded. There were no power lines around and only a couple of people in the other part of the park. After I made a right turn a second later my Spark took off like it was in sport mode.
