Hi there, I do not currently have the Fly More combo and don't have the battery charging hub. I recently lost the charger cable for the batteries which plugs into the spark but i still have the plug part.

Can I just buy a micro usb and connect that to the plug? Will this work fine?

Another micro USB cable will work but beware of cheap cables! Cheap micro USB cables give at 5V only 500-1000mA and this is very slow charging. You need a quality cable with QuickCharge 3.0 support (5V 3A, 9V 1,5A, 12V 1,5A).

Hi thank you for letting me know.
I'm struggling to find a decent one on amazon.
Do you know of one?

Good day. I understand that you have lost your Spark's charging cable. Sibstr is right you can purchase a micro USB cable for you to be able to charge your drone once again. Thank you.

Any micro USB will work but some of them have too much plastic around the connector to fit in the little 'door' of the spark.   I had to file down the plastic on the connector a bit to get it to fit securely.
