    Get rid of the parabolic reflectors, they don't benefit.
    Use 'sport mode' and gain more altitude (150-200 foot) depending on terrain. Trees cut down signal output.
    Flying in FCC output you should easily reach 2-3kms before RTH kick in. What lets these superb drones down is battery endurance. Now, really enjoy your 'Sparky'. :)

      @gemster18 Před 5 lety +1

      Your wrong Quentin.. the reflectors do work in heavy Wifi areas. Also next time you grab the spark from the bottom turn it on it's side, the motors will shut off

    Hi I'm wondering if you can help. I have the Spark but it won't go no further than 25meters all around from where I'm standing, it's sucks! I have my phone connected to the controller and drone via WiFi and it has the very latest update. It's not on beginner mode and I have the max altitude and distance set at 300 meters, what could it be?

    • @JasonDean

    Good work man!
    I bet in that nice flat area you could go farther.
    If you don’t mind I’d like to put my 2cents in
    1. Full battery, I notice it was at around 80%
    2. Fly into the wind in sports mode
    3. Fly at a higher altitude
    The reason I say that is I get that far in a residential valley with no range booster
    I enjoyed your video

      AR 23 Yeah I agree. Next test hopefully in warmer and less windy conditions. I’ll take it in sport mode as far as it’ll go. Hopefully I don’t loose it!! Does OTG give more range or just better video signal?
