Look at race drones and the various autopilots available for them. The drones are frames with motors and esc's equiped. You install the autopilot, video gear, and receiver/motor controller. Those autopilots should be more programmable than the Spark. Plus, the Spark spends a lot of its resources and $$ on its video and photo ability. You won't need that and it would be a waste.
If the aftermarket autopilots aren't that programmable, insert a switch hooked to a GPS unit/altimeter that switches closed at a 1000 feet up and after ejection. The closing switch then letting the autopilot communicate with the GPS and see where it is so it can head home. Or, possibly just keep the autopilot fully GPS connected but disconnected from the motors until the right altitude to start flying and heading home.
Fun times.
