[QUOTE="msinger, post: 4305, member: 18"] This is a common failure reported on all sites that discuss DJI drones. This is why it's so important to always calibrate the compass and launch in open areas -- even more so if you're not certain the area is free of magnet metal sources. It's not an unusual occurrence. For example, if the compass was successfully calibrated near a magnet metal source, the Spark will think everything is normal as long as it remains near that source. Unfortunately, it did not mysteriously correct itself -- causing it to ultimately crash into the neighbor's house. [/QUOTE]
