[QUOTE="Giantprawn60, post: 86107, member: 15632"] Well it happened...i lost my Spark...sigh Today was very windy (a storm is around) but i decided to go for a flight before it got nasty. So i take off and off i go in one direction. about 900m later, i see a helicopter which looked pretty low.And it looked like it was on the same path as my Spark (which was at about 70m high).So i panicked and instead of pressing RTH on the screen and pressed Landing now and didnt notice my mistake. Then i see in the frame,a big white manor house.I panick even more realising that i will land in a super private property in the area.I press cancel but their is no connection to the drone.I lose transmission.back on.nope,lost again. the last image that i see is my drone hitting a 30m high tree in the garden of this place and the camera goes wild.then it's frozen.... so i decided to go there anyway and the gardener tried to help me find the Spark but we could'nt find it as it was lost in a pretty dense hooded area. after 1 hour i went home empty handed. I looked at the log(my device died just as we started looking for it)after charging the battery. And i realised that we were looking about 40m off of where the log says it lies...unfortunately,i'm leaving for 1 week overseas tomorrow.I sent a screen capture of the log to the gardener who helped me,asking if he could have a look in the new location but he hasn't replied yet.....don't think that i will ever see the Spark again...
