[QUOTE="Derek Matera, post: 56293, member: 11634"] Hey guys, I already own a Mavic but got a spark for more quick flying and simple trips. I was very excited about the gesture controls because of the simplicity but they have been anything but that. When i fly my drone, the "palm launch" and "palm landing" work perfectly. The issue is all the other commands (well mainly palm control because i haven't gotten that to work yet and ive been trying that the most) The main issue seems to be having the drone lock onto my hand. When i put my palm up, the drone blinks yellow once but then blinks red. Sometimes it will blink yellow, then green, then red. SOMETIMES (mainly directly after one attempt) it doesn't react at all when i put my hand up; no blinking, no nothing. -- but never locks onto me and turns solid green. I have tried on 2 flights now in and low and full light, wearing different shirts, and from multiple distances - but its the exact same thing every time. It is DJI factory refurbished and i hope its not defective and just something i'm doing. Any help would be great. Here is a link to my flight data if anyone is interested. Its pretty basic because it mainly stayed in one spot while i kept sticking my hand in its face for 11 mins...
