Dear Forum,

I will be travelling with my Spark and I would like to know how others do to store their videos without going through a computer. I will not be having a computer and have limited space on the SD card.

Therefore, I would like to know how I can take my shots from the drone directly to a Google Drive account without using a computer. I have both limited space in the SD card and phone, thus, I need to store it on cloud and delete footage from the drone to continue taking new shots.

All the help is much appreciated.
Best regards,
Kevin

I am travelling with several SD cards
If one is full , I change to the next one  ;-)

The other way, storing in the cloud, would need a good wifi and assumingly a usb otg adapter for your phone
And a lot of time, in the end of the day.

My idea: get something like this and some more cards

Hi S-e-ven,

Thank you for your feedback. I guess that is the best I can do!

Thank you!

Hi S-e-ven,

I used to have a portable photobank that had a SD slot, but I sold it because it was more easy to take several SD cards.
The only issue is that I might loose footage when one of them breaks down.
(I used the photobank as a backup).
So I use smaller SD cards (well, 32 Gb, not that small....)

Yep, 32 GB is big enough for me, too.
Not really b/c the breaking down reason, but for the "chance" that the bird gets free, somehow. ;-)

Sure, many things might go wrong.
