[QUOTE="Icarus50, post: 88842, member: 15864"] I have a number of drones, larger than the Spark but am very impressed with Spark's performance and features. I do photography and view Spark's photographs and videos to be at a very good presentation standard. Messaging at this level is more effective than number of pixels. With warmer weather now, I would like to fly the Spark from a moving boat. I once did this but the signal got lost a number of times as the distance between the boat and me increased so I returned the boat to its original location to regain the controller-Spark [URL='https://sparkpilots.com/#']connection[/URL]. I would like to fly the Spark behind the boat, on the side of the boat, in front and even away from the boat while I am cruising fast around a lake/river. So the question is how to do it this: If I tap my Home position (on the Go 4 app) periodically while the Spark is following me in the boat, will this allow me to fly it without distance restrictions? If I use the Dynamic Position do I need to be in Active [URL='https://sparkpilots.com/#']Tracking[/URL] mode for the [URL='https://sparkpilots.com/#']software[/URL] to automatically update my Home position or this is not even an option. So [URL='https://sparkpilots.com/#']manual[/URL] or automatic? Are there other options? I appreciate any input to learn. Thanks [/QUOTE]
