Imagine, I want to fly my Spark, but it's winter, the ground is wet and mushy, and there is no obvious place to take off or land. I am flying with the remote controller, iPhone 7 clamped in its jaws. I'd like to launch - and recover - by hand. But gesture mode is not ideal when I am carrying the remote in the other hand, and besides, I don't like the idea of changing flight modes while the Spark is airborne, a few feet above that messy ground.
Is it possible (and SAFE), to hold the Spark in the palm of one hand, and then spin up the motors? Normally spinning up requires both hands on the remote, pushing both sticks down and in simultataneously. Is there another, single-handed way of spinning up the motors?
And for landing, if I bring the Spark to a stable hover, and then gently grab hold of it with the palm of my hand, and then push down the left stick on the RC, will the motors cut out? Or would I have to perform the emergency both-sticks down and inwards move, again, one-handed?
Any thoughts about the best/safest way to hand launch and hand land the Spark, while staying in RC mode throughout, would be very welcome!
