[QUOTE="Gsmithwa, post: 33815, member: 6025"] As many have expressed, the Spark Normal mode speed is pretty slow. I put it down a combination of the obstacle avoidance and gimbal not being as sophisticated as Mavic Pro. On an interesting note: I think the normal mode speed (about 10km/hr) seems to be achievable regardless of head or tail winds. If flying into a 15km/hr breeze I still get 10km/hr forwards - making a total of 25km/hr air speed. Conversely flying with a 15km/hr tail wind still gets 10km/hr ground speed which really is 5km/hr backwards airspeed! I haven't explored this to the limits. Wonder if others have noticed something similar. [/QUOTE]
