Flight altitude : 3990 ft United States Offline | 1 # It ook my spark out today and was at the end of my flying, hitting return to dwelling and and so the craft headed towards the landing point initially and all of the sudden it lost signal and said it had a compass mistake, said switch to Atti mode which i cannot manually do, and so it said it was switching to atti manner. The drone took off with no way for me to command it and is lost. I am not able to locate it due to the flying log showing only the last position before information technology lost bespeak, and the flight video ends at what im assuming is an out of range scenario. Is at that place whatever other style to locate these drones? From what I am seeing this is all too common. Favorite Like 1 |

I was non able to go far beep or light upward the LEDs. information technology only showed me the final position before information technology lost betoken just it was a long ways from that position according to video that i was able to retrieve from the cache. The video shows that it headed north of me and just ends at what i'm assuming is the point where information technology went out of range to transmit video. I looked in the area where the video ended just was unable to connect to information technology with wifi or the find my drone option in the app. |

The reason is you may be unlikely to locate it, simply chances are at some point someone volition? I ever label my drones underneath where the battery goes, on the area near the Series Number. I also stick a label onto the battery itself also next to the Serial Number. Having two labels on the drone and battery will provide yous the best chances of locating dorsum your drone. Recall to have your FAA Registration Number adjacent to your information. |

Please notation that if your drone switched to ATTI, it was pushed by the wind. As well, if you lot it lost signal information technology would start landing sequence subsequently well-nigh 3 seconds if you controlled information technology form RC or 20 seconds if you controlled information technology course mobile. If you know forcefulness and management of wind and judge altitude of Spark the moment information technology took off, you lot can figure out where to search. When Spark is landing information technology usually lands slower than 3 thousand/south. Anyways - looking forward to checking you flight records. |

Practice pre-flight checklist, calibrate the drone. You volition be fine. About of the bug reported here are airplane pilot mistakes caused by inexperience and lack of understanding what they tin do with Spark. Also lack of understanding of Spark behaviour. Some are genuine h/w or south/west errors - but in bulk of cases DJI replaces Spark if on warranty. What you do not see on this forum is accounts of tens of thousands of very happy Spark owners :-). |

They volition investigate and determine if it may exist covered under warranty. Secondly, if you lot would like customs assist in trying to find your shipping and to maybe help understand what may accept happened, I would recommend uploading your logs to the following site, then pasting the resulting URL into this thread. The logs quite often take more than information in them than is available in the UI. http://www.phantomhelp.com/LogViewer/Upload/ Thirdly, it would exist great to also upload the video from the flight and share information technology here every bit well. Lots of times information technology helps to understand what is existence seen in the logs when you tin can coordinate it with what is seen in the video. |

Let everyone fix for ATTI flight, that's right, but in vain I'thousand prepared if I have no contact and can not control it ... |

Flight distance : 322454 ft Kuwait Offline | 33 # knelson69 Posted at 2018-6-22 13:18 It seems like in your case compass error came into play while the drone was closer and landing at domicile point. Ordinarily when this happens due to some EMI interference, the SPARK sends the RTH location to the mobile app probably every few seconds and when information technology realizes that it is away from the Abode point due to the malfunction of the compass, u come across a sudden take off which most pilots report as fly aways. Please remember that a computer similar SPARK is a idiot box as long as how nosotros write the software to intelligently control its functions. |

I did upload the flying logs to the link that you provided today, and i had uploaded them to another user every bit well to that same link. I besides attempted to upload the in flying video of that item flight and did not accept success. Perchance the file is likewise large or something, i don't know. I capeesh everybodys time and willingness to aid me understand what went wrong with my flight and hope that I will be welcome to participate in this forum in the future as I continue to fly drones. |
