Phone was listen in recall in apple serial numbers - online. Got a new free battery today....hopefully that will fix things!

My 6s and Osmo mobile have this bug - hooks up find, records for a minute or so....then screen goes black and phone is dead. Phone needs restarted and phone is still black (display off). Percentage for phone goes from 70% to 15% almost instantly..... BUT, when I take the iphone home and plug...

I'm not doubting your experience but the Apple laptop and iphone I have right here are made in China - and DJI is known to pay well (very well). I can confirm that having talked to many employees and contractors of theirs. Wages have gone way up in China and just about everything we buy (most...

Very strange. I have had two Mavics - one since right after launch and never had any QC problems with them. I have followed threads with 100's of Mavic users and not seen many hardware problems. If they replaced birds as you mention chances are that something happened with a "known batch". My...

The odds of you getting easy and accurate answers on multiple tickets are about zero. You may just be setting yourself up for a lot of time wasted. The key with every single drone I have ever had is to try and learn as much as possible about the nuances and the possible fixes on the particular...

Pretty much me to a T - other than that I inhaled and stuff.....and my vehicle definitely goes quicker than that, but I did not perform any mods to make it do so. As with every other behavior, there is a line somewhere. I think "Coal Rollers" for example are irresponsible (modding truck so it...

yes - 499 pkg w iphone

The way I look at the "basic" $499 Spark is that it is semi-perfected BeBop or AR Drone. All my Parrot products acted up (flew away, crashed, didn't respond properly) - while the Spark - which I have been flying for about 2+ weeks, does actually work well with my mobile device. It has forward...

Six minutes of sample footage - this is on Vimeo...it's on youtube also, but it seems the mods here don't like links to stuff they deem commercial (all YT vids are commercial). But here is the Vimeo no-ad 6 minute version.......

Hand gestures are only within maybe 10-20 feet at most, so I don't think you need to worry about RTH. With Wifi you can hit RTH on your device and/or it will do so automatically as the battery lowers (which it does quickly on this model). With Wifi, you may lose image but still have control -...

Here is a dropbox movie - a couple cuts. Download it and play it local and see if it seems choppy. I haven't noticed anything but, then again, I haven't looked close...too busy flying a review model. Dropbox - ScratchRoll1Spark.mp4

Here is about the max range - you can see me in the backyard.

I have a video that shows the phone app - on an ipad mini.... Basic answer is that you DO want to get the R/C unless you are never going to fly further than maybe 250 feet away (and 150 feet high).

no- it will not work!

A quickie of the same area with Mavic Pro mid-day
