[QUOTE="sparkpod, post: 9838, member: 1717"] Hi fellow Spark pilots. Just introducing myself. My name is Jake and I live in Poole. I bought my little spark the day before I went on holiday, so here it is in south west France. Had a few low flying indoor scares already. Mostly due to pilot idiocy. Running before walking style of thing. It’s my first drone but I’m a private pilot, so thought it would translate easily to flying the spark, as I did when I thought being able to skateboard would help me snowboarding. No. It didn’t really. It just makes me more willing to try stuff out that I probably shouldn’t, just yet... I’m still getting my head around the various configurations with controller versus phone, OTG versus WiFi etc.. Took it out this evening in some lovely sunflower fields..up to the legal maximum height too..spectacular stuff..it’s actually put a big smile on my surly 15 year-old son who would rather be anywhere else in the world right now :) Had a weird gimbal overload message this morning but it went away after I rebooted everything and recalibrated the compass. It asked me to do that a lot (5 or 6 times) is this normal? I’ll post some pics and vids soon, when I can figure that part out..it does some quite funky but stilted auto editing! A bientot! jake [/QUOTE]
