Hi guys and gals. Its me again ;)
Just wanted to ask you. When i switch on my spark and take it in hand, then i twist it in the air and i hear squicking sounds coming from the spark. Not loud but its there. Is it normal??? Im asking because i dont remember hearing them on the 1st spark that i lost in the woods.

Thanks all and safe flying

Video, please!

Sorry for the trouble. I think you're hearing the internal fan. Please upload a video here so that we can check on that. You can use google drive or drop-box for you to upload it. Thank you.

could be the internal cooling fan, DJI will prob ask you to send it in.

Is the camera gimbal binding against your palm?  It will try to stay level when the drone is twisted in the air.

The gimbal is ok, its trying and staying level. Its just when i move the drone its starts to squick a little. Im sure its the fan. The question is, is it safe to fly like this? Because in the end it doesnt bother me that much to send it in and be without a drone for 3 or more months.

this is more strange behaviour than the drone problem !!

I mean i just got it 2 days ago. And i was without a drone for more than a month. So it would suck to send it in only after 2 days. DJI support, please tell me is it safe to fly? Its behaving normally.

Ok. Just got back from a little flight. I think that the little squiks so far is just a "cosmetic" issue. Lets just hope that it doesnt turn into a "real" issue.

Anyway. Regarding the little subtle buzzy noises that spark makes when shaken or twisted is normal as i have read on other posts. Many ppl have the same "issue" brand new drone makes little abnormal noises when shaken or twisted. Its normal as it turns out. DJI ELECTRA said that its normal. As long as it doesnt make any strange weird noises when still, its all ok
