[QUOTE="wordzenpix, post: 51107, member: 10322"] With less than an hour and four flights on my brand new Spark, it flew away, ignoring my command to land where it's at which was about 10 feet away from me. I kept it low, under 10 feet, and close by for "safety." It arbitrarily chose a new "home" and flew there while I fought it all the way. That home was 54 feet up in a giant cedar, unretrievable after three efforts. DJI says no compensation for a faulty product, but please send us your flight records. Right, I'm going to waste another hour on top of the 15 I've invested. I'm not done with them yet. I did the recommended calibration before taking off, all the proper stuff, oh well. So did Dave Bowman. It really WAS creepy the way the Spark ignored my command to land where it is, slowly turned like the pod HAL controlled and headed off down the beach. The collision avoidance failed as well, and I had to jump out of the way. At least it didn't get me like the pod got Bowman. One must find some humor/amusement in these things. [/QUOTE]
