[QUOTE="Jan Buhrman, post: 25725, member: 5304"] Played with mine today! Nice unit and a blast to fly! The mavic is better platform too. That said you can really count on spark to do well too. Then count on spark to really tweak ya in sport mode. LEARN TO FLY ATTI! Stay close where you can see it to tell its orientation if you fear fly away. Rec home pt before fly away. Make sure your rth height is set according to obstacles present. Don't fly with choppy video unless adherence to above is absolute. Fly sport mode in small field until confidence is true with low fast controlled flight. Simulate loss of orientation when video feed works well to allow yourself learn ways to regain orientation when you can only see a dot. I use rotate bit fly forward bit when I cannot remember my last move or some turbulence takes me; when it's a dot in the distance. Rotate bit fly forward a bit will localise its orientation if your screen goes black or only Rc works. I learned to fly Rc planes when one had to really pilot! Flew to little dots we did distance dog fights. We did not loose a plane unless we made a honest piloting error, or construction error. Built rib by rib them wings. If it's a dot u see which way it goes when stick is forward. This is relative to YOU the pilot ok. Once we know which way it points we can return it home. The rth path usually snakes rather than stays straight, we are human. I used dji assistant to tweak the crafts tilt angles and velocities of up/ down in sport mode config. Wow spinner, this bird is cool if I crash I have the care refresh. That said I'm not careless with my flight decisions. I do push limits at times but not too much beyond. I tweak it till I can smash it up fast go normal mode get shots then sport mode drop back fast for quick reset or rth when bat hits 30. Spark is also always in your bag and ready to go... the best cam is the one you have on you! [/QUOTE]
