[QUOTE="msinger, post: 13925, member: 18"] At the end of your flight log, the battery was at 20% and your Spark was ascending to 98 feet so it could return home. Your flight log doesn't show this, but it must have reached the critical low battery level and started to auto land. There is no way to cancel that auto landing [I](even when connected to the Spark)[/I]. The best you could have done is tried to hold the throttle in the full up position and steer it back to the home point [I](hopefully before the battery died mid-flight)[/I]. It's surely an expensive lesson to learn, but this is why DJI recommends only flying on a fully charged battery. This is even more important when flying over terrain that is not safe for landing [I](in case an unplanned auto land is necessary)[/I]. [/QUOTE]
