[QUOTE="Sparkbart, post: 3955, member: 652"] Boy, the instructions/info regarding the Spark are a bit confusing. I've watched the DJI tutorial several times regarding Gesture Mode and seem to have a problem. Following the directions and once the Spark has launched, performed its face and palm recognition, I do some movement gestures, then I wave at it, and it flys up and away a few feet. At that point the front LEDs are solid red. Then no matter what gesture I make the Spark just sits there. I have to grab the remote and pilot it from that point on. Here's my start-up for Gesture mode; 1) Start Remote 2) Open Go App 4 (but I do not select "Enter Device"), its just up. 3) Connect or ensure my Ipad is connected to the Remote 4) Power up the Spark 5) I then follow the instructions for "Gesture mode" per the DJI official videos (It mostly works for palm take-off, palm landing, left, right, up, down) The Official DJI Video says (I paraphrase) to have my smart device/remote ready if I need to take control in an emergency. Wondering If I should have the Go App and/or the Remote completely off. But this doesn't make any sense cause if there is an emergency, the time it takes to power on the remote, bring up and connect to the Go App, and take control, the Spark could be far away or already crashed into whatever I was hoping to avoid... Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
