Poland, Poznań. I invite you to my media, where you can see the views from my country and city, made of course by Spark.

Have you watched this video on YouTube? That's Casey Neistat flying the DJI Spark inside a 1st Class Airplane suite. This should be the life goal for all Spark owners.

So what do think...30,000 feet at 500 mph, give or take?
A new speed and altitude record for the Spark.?
Thanking you for the acceptance -- NEWBIE with a Spark, -- seriously ?
don't worry, not a big poster and will RTFM as much as possible.

To be honest, behind the scene she is keeping an eye on the horrid weather here in the UK at the moment and prompting me every now and then to go and fly?when the wind is calm...No,no.no...
Happy wife, happy life.
She's your copilot to keep ya steady.

Hello from the Hoosier Heartland, RiverRatDC.
From a drone pilot point of view, DC would be a beautiful place to capture but the whole area is a NFZ. Bummer.
Some apps available free in the app stores worth having are...
1) AIRMAP. This provides the pilot with information on NFZ's NOTAM's, TFR's, etc.
You can scroll around the map and find potential flying areas between the NFZ's.
2) UAV FORECAST. This provides information on the weather in your area to determine if it's a good day to fly. Parameters such as wind speeds at different altitudes, temperatures, satilites, etc.
I check both of these before heading out the door because it might look like a nice day on the ground, but could be different 200' up or a TFR may pop up due to an air show, President, or other events that warrant a TFR.
The third app is WINDY. It has a nice flowing graphic of the wind that is soothing to watch and shows how the wind is flowing rather than just an arrow pointing.
Enjoy retirement and welcome to the Forum. ?

Thanks Spark 317. I've been building and flying RC models for forty years and it broke my heart when DC became one large NFZ. Sadly, I just have to go farther out to legally fly.
Working now to learn dji Go 4 and Litchi.
Thanks for all the great pointers,
Kevin
