Hello, I'm a new DJI user. BOught Spark just for me! My son has been flying Phantoms for years.... I'm amazed at how easy it is to fly it..  I want to buy the best OTG cable possible. Can anybody recomend one? I bought a cheap one from Amazon, too short and bad conection. Then I ordered 2 adaptors, so I can use my Iphone cord. But the adaptor is also very cheap, wiggles and you loose conection. I would not mind paying $20 or more for a heavy duty well made OTG cable.  Loving my Spark!! Thank for the help! Aloha from Maui

Sorry, this is my first posting... There is a forum question about the same... Someone answered there, I just bought a nice OTG cable. I hope it's a good one, they are all on the cheap side...  Thanks!

What device are you flying your Spark with? Apple/Android? Mobile/tablet?
And unlike Phantoms, the Spark can be flown without an OTG cable. Your phone can just connect to the RC via wifi!
So, it is up to you if you want to buy the OTG. I support the decision to get the cable! Much more reliable.

Check the DJI store at this link.  They are selling their data cables in all three configurations and currently (April 5) you get a free one (two for one!).  I purchased two with lightening and two with micro USB.  They are about 10+ inches long.  I use one with my Mavic Pro and an iPad mini and the other with a Spark and either an iPhone or Huawei X2.

No it is not supported. I have tried it, but fx no information about the battery in the setup menu. Maybe more things that doesn't work
