I think I may have an issue with the forward obstacle sensing system.  Frequently when flying forward the Spark will stop.  BTW I was in an open field..no obstacles or trees.  When I attempt to fly forward it will beep like it does when it detects an obstacle.  I will not move.  The only way I was able to get it back to me was to turn it around and fly it backwards.  Anyone else seen this?  Or have any ideas what may be causing it?

Yes I was flying in the general direction of the sun.  I have flown towards the sun with my phantom 4 pro and never had this problem.  It happened at about 50 ft altitude but continued to happen as I lowered altitude until finally I was just a few feet above the ground....still would not fly forward.

It is known fact with Mavic and it was with P4Pro with some, so I would suggest try flying away from sun if it's ok then you will know what the reason is.
