I received a Spark for my birthday last month and have been flying it quite a bit, but I have been having a pretty consistent issue where much of the time, especially when either manipulating the gimbal or yawing at any speed, there is a horizontal line and distortion of the image in video. This distortion is in the video files pulled from the SD card, and is consistently about 1/3 of the way down from the top of the screen. SD card is a Lexar 633x 16GB that was marketed as for DJI.
I have been unable to locate this issue in other footage on youtube etc.
Footage is also almost always jerky when yawing (panning horizontal using left stick). I understand that the gimbal does not account for this axis but other's footage doesn't appear to have the issue?
All footage is raw off the card, no editing.
This is my favorite video I've shot so far as the lake colors looks absolutely astonishing... but it is marred by the distortion that occurs intermittently throughout, some of which is pretty promiment around 12 seconds in to 24 seconds.
This footage was shot to see how busy the pool was before walking down lol, but also to test the issue I've been having which is pretty prominent in this video. It appears that speed doesn't make much difference regarding the distortion, it appears whether going slow or fast.
This video shows that the issue is not constant, but is consistently intermittent. Even in this same video, sometimes when turning or adjusting gimbal it is smooth, but other times such as from 330 - 405 it's pretty horrible.
I appreciate your help and suggestions... this does not appear to be normal as I've not found any other spark footage with these issues... did I get a dud?
Regular pictures appear to be fine as shown in the uploaded picture below.
