[QUOTE="Sparkbart, post: 27682, member: 652"] Interesting. I've got dozens and dozens of flights on all my DJI drones including the Spark where I've been wearing my Apple Watch, had my Iphone in my pants pocket with "hotspot" turned on as well as having whatever apps running in the background on it, my Ipad connected to my Iphone so I could get map data and have had zero issues. I've also received calls and text while flying in this mode and have had zero issues. So to read this is very interesting to me. As I've flown in a configuration some would consider a no-no and have experienced no issues. If there were issues flying like this you can bet I wouldn't risk my Inspire... Back on topic - When it comes to drones there is nothing you can do that will "prevent" a fly-away. It can happen to the most experienced and careful pilot. There are simply circumstances beyond our control. With that said you can reduce the risks or chances of a flyaway as msinger has stated above. IMO, most of the people, and I say most and not all, of those that say they couldn't control their Spark when it went into ATTI mode were just not practiced in flying a drone in ATTI mode or without GPS.
