Apparently it's an Iphone only feature....

I have a iphone 6s and a samsung galaxy s6

what is the news of IOS? tell me that check.

anyway for rth the problem are Gimbal 99% with last firmware,i think no error hardware but error software...

But I did upgrade to Spark and everything went well ... when I then had to upgrade the radio when I restart I can not find the RC Wi-Fi anymore ... somebody has some solution?...

I make the update but I didn't find the option to adjust distance for quickshots neither than the direction choices for helix and circles.

And please, bring 25p to Europe !

check into a "dronie" for example..

I found it, you have to tap twice on dronie or another quickshots, the app is complete but not so intuitive !

New DJI Go 4.1.4 shows here today on my S7 edge (android 7.0) Brazil.

Now it has gimbal control with phone acelerometer - gimbal velocity controll on settings and 180° panoramas.

I've already fly with nee dji go and everything is fine.

I can confirm, android now has spark camera control tilting the phone! Its a realy usefull function.

I try put in Galaxy s6 DJI GO 4  4.1.3 and don't see error gimbal...ok i no fly...but i restart AC....And no error appeared.

Still very poor signal from spark via the controller.  Losses the connection and straight away turns RTH.

Very disappointed. I friend sold the Spark for only that reason.

I'm thinking of selling DJI spark fly combo + 2 more batteries to 799euro.

As long as it's still a novelty.

Then I buy the mavic.

Mavic has the exact same problems as spark, just take a look on mavic forum..

mavic lost signal at 200mt? haha i don't think.

mavic problem RTH or Gimbal? haha i don't think.


i wrong?

Upgraded the Spark, the controller, both batteries.  Upgraded the iOS app.

Fired up the app and it wanted me to do a compass recalibration.

Everything looks good, quick shots work well.  Finding most of my problems are understanding the app or what to tap on.  Although the Spark is really easy to use and quick to set up, it's not that intuitive.

Every time I need to adjust a setting I find myself hovering for a while while I just hunt through everything to find the setting.  They need to hire a really good user interface design specialist, it feels like there's too many engineers trying to design it.  Hire a bunch of those Cupertino people for a few months, that should take care of it.

And there's too much of those things that are just plain quirky, although this update helps with that.  Really like the voice prompts, that seems to help.

Other than that it's really a lot of fun!  Great work DJI, keep evolving it!

Fired up the app and it wanted me to do a compass recalibration.

And why in the world would I want my user ID set to fansbb8911d2?  More engineers trying to do design.  Anyway found the arcane way to set up my user name.

Took the Spark out for 30 min (3 batteries worth) and got to play with the new firmware. I used the RC with iPad Pro 10.5 on iOS 11 beta 4. Initially, I had some issues with Bluetooth interference and did a series of rebooting the Spark, RC and iPad to make sure I had a good connection. After about 10 min, I was finally able to establish a good connection and take flight.

The first time, the RC lost connection while the Spark was hovering 4 feet in the air and that is when I reset all connections. After then, I was able to fly regularly and take some great footage. In Sport Mode, the FPV is drastically better and a blast to fly around.

I switched to Gesture Mode and was able to see the Record Method work with the RC and iPad screen in the background.  One thing that users need to know, is that you can only start and stop recording video with the Spark is close to you. It will only start/stop video recording and not follow you. You cannot start/stop recording when the Spark is in “away and follow”. Only then, you can start recording, then summon the Spark to “away and follow” and it will follow you during active track while recording all within Gesture Mode.

Overall, this upgrade is great and happy to finally see video recording in Gesture Mode so we can know that this features is able to be used without any sort of controller.

Update to V 01.00.0500 at day 1. The latest firmware somehow broke my digital compass. Now I have to recalibrate every single time before I launch the drone. And it is very easy to get calibration failure now. After launch the drone stop recognize any gesture. I am pretty sure I switch to gesture mode in-app. Of course no video gesture. Piloting with RC and App works fine. QuickShot and ActiveTrack also work. Looks like there are a lot of reported issues. Don't recommend to upgrade.

I have three batteries... So far only one battery updated.  I keep clicking check for updates... but it won't update my other two batteries.  Thoughts???

This is updated for iOS today! DJI GO4

Nothing in Greece yet,

maybe try downgrading and then try the update a second time with that battery?

Thank you for your message Thor1.
Unfortunately, that battery is unusable and completely drained. The charging hub doesn't recognize it anymore (red LED) and I can't charge it when attached to the Spark either. Without power, I guess I can't go for any downgrade/upgrade either with the phone app or the Assistant. I think I have no other option than ask for RMA now.

ZhinGket Posted at 2017-7-28 05:40
@Malakyte did you fixed the battery issue? mine did same thing, I updated the spark and remote just using my iphone SE with no problem but when I am about to fly the spark the next day, it asked me to update the battery with the "inconsistent firmware" message and got stuck at 99% then the battery indicator 2 middle LEDs just stayed on and the spark turned off and cannot be powered on again, tried the second one and same thing, I did the 3rd one when I got home, but can't still figure out how to fix the other two batteries.

@ZhinGket, I couldn't revive the faulty battery. It remained with the 2 middle LEDs ON until it completely drained.

I have tried:
- DJI Assistant 2 -> couldn't see the drone with the faulty battery
- leaving the faulty battery attached to the drone for "slow charging" during 3 hours without success -> not charging

I guess I need to exchange the battery now.

ZhinGket Posted at 2017-7-28 06:51
Just had a chat with DJI support, the batteries needs to be replaced, hopeful that the replacement will come before my vacation in 3 weeks, this is the main reason I bought the spark on day 1 without hesitation so I can bring it to my upcoming vacation and be familiarized with the quad as I also have the yuneec breeze and they are completely different experience, well lesson learned, update/upgrade thru DJI assistant next time.

Luckily for me it happened - at the end of my vacation -. I hope you will get your replacement on time.

I wish I could but the battery level was probably too low to do so.

No, I couldn't.
The faulty battery level was probably too low to proceed with any resuscitation methods. I have tried DJI Assistant 2 but the Spark didn't appear.

Anyone know what the new gesture is for video recording mentioned in the latest firmware update

The video gesture is raising your right arm up and to the right. Lots of demos of this update on YouTube.

that sucks, i hope they figure out what is going on!

Dronie mode still doesn't rise like it should after this update....

What about the 180° Pano?

Is this something different than the previous mode. I only see the same settings on the DJI GO4 Android app: am I missing something here?

Thanks for the assistance

Ok, found out that I was still stuck with 4.1.3

Today I squeezed the spark. 150 minutes recording (about 14gb) 19 flights 2 hours flight. 1 problem only a disconnection from RC H 1.5mt D 6mt lost the blink signal and no longer hung up until I restarted RC. For today's promoted.
