I don't know if there's a problem with my cable connection or what... but it recently started disconnecting and I wiggle it and it connects... and then it disconnects and I wiggle it and.. .repeat. Anyone else having this problem? It seems to be on the remote side and not the phone side. Are micro USB cables normally like this? Or could this be a software issue somehow?

Sean, I would recommend you connect your spark with wifi instead. OTG cable may cause some problem in displaying the screen or other problems. Our engineers are working on that. Thanks for your support.

Get a 90° micro usb adapter cabel.
The port at the RC is the weak part in here.
It is a USB Micro A port, that we are using with a USB Micro B plug
With a 90° plug, you get a good chance that it will work a bit longer!

I've been using wifi, but frequently get interference warnings and disconnects. I've learned to trust the remote control during scary moments.

I have one of those cables on order. Hope it helps.

Please choose a wide place without interference. I would recommend you enter the wifi setting and select the channel with best signal. Or you can choose  auto mode before flight.

Unfortunately, I don't get to choose the place I fly (its for work). :-)

I believe it's an "AB receptacle" that can accept both A and B plugs. Here's where I've found this information: https://gct.co/usb-connector/mic ... erview#.W2fxbdhKjOQ

Btw, I had several disconnects when configuring (not flying) a few things on my Spark recently using an OTG micro B plug to lightning cable. Just got the cable and the Spark, not sure what's up... :/
