[QUOTE="Chips, post: 72471, member: 2322"] I'm still nervous about flying at night and only do so if I am in a very open area for landing. I trust the GPS to provide the location to RTH but I still worry about the descent not being exactly where homepoint is. If the space is not large, the drone may descend near obstacles. The idea about shining a light was also suggested by my son and I also think a strobe light might be useful to identify the landing spot if it is a very dark area. Having said that, I recently flew at night over a go-kart track which was quite brightly lit and the Spark returned and as it descended, it entered PRECISION LANDING mode and came down right on home point.
