Lost my spark today was flying around the lake lost connection to the spark went to rth mode I didn’t have a high enough rth altitude and it crashed into a tree. Waiting for a friend to meet up and help assist which tree it got stuck in. If anyone is in the sunrise,fl arena at markham park please let me know if find a white spark

Sorry for your lost. I would recommend you search your spark according to the last GPS position. Please contact our support and start a case: http://www.dji.com/support Thanks for your support.

i have located it but getting it down from 70 ft up in the air on a tree branch seems to be the difficult part.

You've just given me a great idea for a new business.

Imagine if we train monkeys (spider, howler, resus, etc.) to climb trees and retrieve drones and other objects!!!

Could be a gold mine!!!

the overhead wont make up for it. if they just make a drone that doesnt lose connection at 895 feet and  follow the users input to cancel the auto command for return to home would work better.

You have to have really good eyes to be able to see a spark at 895 feet away.

thanks i do

having a white spark helps too

That is the danger of flying your drone too low and far from your command especially when there is low hanging fruit.

I hope White helps because that's the color I have.

I just make it a rule of thumb always to go above elements whenever I go past a certain distance where I can't judge the height of potential obstacles on the ground.

the spark lost connection to the rc and rth kicked in flew it into the tree. thanks for the  advice
