Flying Above Dense Fog

Land it as normal. That is what I would do if it was attempting to land “on” the fog then continue the flight as normal.

The Spark will not descend thru fog...it's impossible to land, as far as I know. I got caught above some fog once, and had to fly away a couple hundred yards to where the fog was thinner, and descend down over there.

I suppose it's possible that when the battery gets low enough, the Spark WILL descend thru the fog.

And you could disable them by going into sports mode? Because I have made the drone decend very fast in sports mode.

The VPS stays active even in sport mode. Only the forward sensors are deactivated.

I didn't have any sensor errors or warnings when i was descending, the Spark came down as it does on a sunny day. I only had one warning when I was going up through the fog. I may have just been lucky that morning!
