    Would you buy a spark?

    My opinion is that it's a waste, with the exception of a few new flight modes (that might even make its way to the MP), it's just a throttled down version of the MP. Yeah, it may be smaller, but there are plenty of handy cases out there that make the MP just as portable. Unless you have the...

    Does anyone have a confirmed date for this update, or just "later" this week?

    DJI to restrict non-compliant drones at next software update

    DJI can't even release a decent F/W or S/W update to BENEFIT us customers to fix their own bugs that they have or newly created while making a new F/W or S/W. However, I am sure this one will be the ONE flawless update only due to the fact that its a royal inconvenience to us pilots. Can't wait...

    Maybe I'll just keep playing with it in hopes. If not, I'll send it out.

    Gimbal Motor Overload

    Just tried. No go. However, when I tip the camera down it goes the arm all the way to the stop that you see on the left side and when I pan it up, it stops before it reaches the end. Is that normal or is it supposed to go all the way each way

    Gimbal Motor Overload

    When I turn the AC on, it goes through it's boot sequence but at the end it stops forward and tilts down a little bit and if I leave the AC on, it will randomly try and reset gimbal. I do have an image on my screen and focusing works and yes, it still flys like a gem. If I try to use the gimbal...

    Water Crash... Is this the VPS issue im now reading about?

    So it would basically be a safe to say, to avoid potential "VPS Issues" when flying over water, the simple fix is to do your flying over water with Landing Protection off and once you're done flying over the water, just switch it back on in the settings? Switching it on while still flying will...

    NVIDIA Shield K1 Case

    Sounds good, thanks again! I'll probably just go with the Fintie. Looking forward to giving your mount a try, I like the slim profile and the fact it doesn't obstruct RC screen. No issues with holding, balance or controls/buttons distance from fingers/thumbs?

    NVIDIA Shield K1 Case

    So I decided to go with the Shield K1 for my tablet of choice for my Mavic. What is the best case to use for it? If I went with a case with a magnet on it for the cover, will it cause interference with anything? I plan on 3D printing a mount to the back of it designed by @halley so ill need...

    Best nVidia Shield Mount

    Hey All, I have been searching around the forums and haven't really found a definitive answer. I am looking for what seems to be the best mount for the Shield. However I would like a mount that doesn't obstruct the screen of the RC. The only thing I have found are the "Z" clips that are...
