Hello,
Just wondering if anyone has any ideas on this. I have been flying my Spark for a couple of weeks. Sunday night, I decided to get a great horizon view and sent it straight up to 850 feet. Big mistake. It was calm on the ground. Then all of a sudden, it started to take off in a loop and I got a high wind warning. It only traveled about 300 feet, but the warnings started to cascade in Compass, low GPS. I started to descend as fast as possible. It went to ATTI mode even though there were 15 satellites. I tried RTH, but no go. It had recorded the home point and set RTH to 98 feet at the beginning of the flight. When I viewed the flight later in DJI Go, it showed the drone going into landing somewhere around 200 feet. Then it disappeared at 158 feet, the flight data ended. The location was in the clear, and about 200 feet from my location, but behind a tall tree line. Perhaps 50 feet from the tree line. I scoured the last known location, including the tree line, no sign at all of the Spark. So I'm scratching my head. Where in the world could it have gone? DJI Go said "landing". The firmware for the drone and remote was updated 2 weeks ago.
