Hey Guys,

I put together a short video on the DJI Spark Remote Controller. I skipped all the basics and focused on some of the lesser known features and some things that I had not tried before. Hope it's helpful.

Good video!

Thanks a lot. I watched all your videos before getting my Spark a couple of weeks ago, and they've all been really helpful. Many thanks for making them!

Great video...I think the Midair CSC has either been deactivated or only works under certain midair emergencies/malfunctions (which the DJI manual doesn't elaborate on).  Kloo Gee had a video on the different modes and couldn't get Midair CSC to work, either.  I like the Pause button...several people have had RTH kick in when under a tree and before they could look down and hit the Cancel on the screen, they crashed.  I practice all the time sliding my left thumb off the control stick down to the Pause button, just in case I need to use it.

P.S.  I also hand land on the right hand while holding the RC in my left hand and pulling back on the control stick to descend and shutoff the motors. You show that but don't really explain to the novice how you did it.

The emergency shutting off the motors with down and outward joystick command was disabled by DJI in a prior firmware update.

Good info to share   

Great video, thanks for sharing!

Thanks! Yeah, it's funny but I had never used the pause button until I made the video. Good point about the RTH - been there. And good idea about practicing the movement, I will definitely have to do that. I can see pause being very useful.

I intentionally did not explain the hand landing at the end. I demonstrated it earlier in the video (ground landing) and if people really wanted to solve the "mystery", I think they could connect the dots. :-)
