[QUOTE="dingodar, post: 82554, member: 15995"] My spark had compass error and said to land immediately. It went into Atti mode and gunned its engines and flew a couple thousand feet away in seconds! Return to home would not work!! There were error messages blocking my screen and I had no video or a clue where it went to. Finally I noticed the distance and altitude starting working and I brought it back using that. When it reached two hundred feet away the low battery kicked in, and the return to home activated. My question is why does it gun it engines full blast and run off when there are errors? This is the third time it has happened. Also My Sons Spark had a similar experience - his Spark ramped the speed up full blast when a compass error occurred over water. Luckily he was able to recover by using the distance meter. Is the max full speed ahead when errors occur - a normal phenomenon for the sparks? [/QUOTE]
