Hi Guys,
I haven’t log in for a long while. Good to see the spark pilots still active. I had a problem with my batteries, but I’ve got some new ones now so sparky is back in the air again.

The Spark could probably last indefinitely - it's always the batteries that keep 'em out of the air.

Welcome back.

I haven't flown my SPARK for years but recently checked my batteries and all nine took a charge!!

The remote even had some power left in it.

Wow! You were lucky. I can only charge mine in the spark and they just keep flashing the first 2 LED’s 4 times a second.,

all nine

Woah! Now that's a lot. I have 4, and I thought that was something to be proud of...

Great that they're all charging.

For @jmac's problem:

Have you tried opening up the batteries and testing the voltage of each cell? If they're still over 2.6 volts they can be restored. I can discuss this in a different thread if it would help.

Thanks anyway but I don’t want to mess with them. There have been so many house fires here caused by lithium batteries. The two new ones that I have will suffice.
Cheers.

Update to the battery problem. My husband found some software and managed to get both batteries working again. Now I have 4 batteries. Still not a lot of places we're allowed to actually fly the drone here though.

Nice job!
