[QUOTE="Spark 317, post: 74462, member: 894"] Hello from the Hoosier Heartland, Billmarshall4163. Thank You for your fire fighting service. I thought meadow green would be easier to see in the air and laughed when I received it and realized they are all gray on the bottom. I took a paper hole punch and made a bunch of dots from some D.O.T. reflective tape and put them all over the Spark and batteries should I lose it in the brush. I did this after reading a story about somebody finding the Spark deep in the brush by the sun glistening off of the brass contacts of the battery. Here is a [URL='https://sparkpilots.com/threads/tile-tracker-saved-the-day.11873/'][B][I]thread on trackers[/I][/B][/URL] that may be of interest. Of course you'll have to [URL='https://www.faa.gov/uas/getting_started/register_drone/'][B][I]register your Spark with the FAA.[/I][/B][/URL] It cost $5 and takes 5 minutes. Most pilots put the number inside the Spark on the battery bulkhead with a label or a Sharpie pen. I think one accessory every pilot has is the [B][I][URL='https://www.google.com/search?biw=1920&bih=946&tbm=shop&ei=fNgnXKujIcnSsAWw4rKQAw&q=dji+spark+gimbal+cover+and+sunshield&oq=dji+spark+gimbal+cover+and+sunshield&gs_l=psy-ab.3...25688.30832.0.31436.14.14.0.0.0.0.102.1236.13j1.14.0....0...1c.1.64.psy-ab..0.8.733...33i299k1j33i10k1.0.k-MBQJncVsE']gimbal cover and/or a sunshade.[/URL] [/I][/B]The cover is great when transporting the Spark as the camera is delicate. I don't have a sun shade but it may cut the glare from the sun on certain shots. Research before you buy as some shades may interfere with the workings of the gimbal. Additional batteries are nice to have. Welcome to the Forum.:cool: [/QUOTE]
