[QUOTE="az erik, post: 115305, member: 20271"] I was up at my place in the north this last weekend and needed to run the Spark around the top level of my cabin to check out some windows I might have issues with. I was having a heck of a time getting sat lock. I finally found a spot where I could get enough to take off. I took off and 1st stupid thing: thought I was taking a video, took a picture. Flew around the windows ever so closely, 3 ft away with a 5ish mph wind. And the remote lost signal. I finally had it happen long enough I noticed the red light on the remote. I wasn't flying with a OTG, and it was going to be my roof I'd crash into if something went wrong. The Spark hovered for about 15 seconds and the remote went green again. It was ;less than 15 feet away from me, however it was almost directly above my Airport Extreme 5g wifi. It came back online and I, stupid thing #2, clicked to stop taking the video I wasn't taking, and took another picture. Landed and looked at my phone and thought the video wasn't there due to the remote disconnect. Drove 200 miles home, pulled the SD card and, oh nice 2 pictures.. the remote antenna blades were pointed at the drone when it disconnected. They have almost always been pointed the correct way and it's almost always disconnected within 25ft of me. It's on 5.8 and I changed the channel to 161 and 149 with no luck. I'm wondering if theres a way to force reflash the remote? Side note, the Go software issue may or may not be related at all, but others have noted a lot of disconnects with the latest, and sadly that's all I have access to. The mod4 just doesn't run on my Galaxy Tab, neither does Litchi [/QUOTE]
