Mine was very similar thinking I could land on a mini pontoon boat. I thought the boat was not moving but it was oh so slightly and the Spark's landing was so slow it clipped the rail, flipped right into the water. I immediately dove in diving to find it. It was about 10-14 ft. deep and could not see because the bottom was dark and full of weeds. As I was going down my hands went into the weeds and low a behold my hand hit the spark. After rescue I took it apart and put it in rice for 2 days. Tried to fly and it got about two feet in the air and fell to the ground. Next day I let it soak in the hot sun flipping it every 3 hours. That evening put a battery in and off she went without a hitch. Been flying it for over a year now.
