Everytime, for basically the past 7 months now, I attempt to fly my drone, It will take off to about 5 feet or so and just bounce up and down. It will become unresponsive to my controls, and sometimes it won't land. I'm struggling to figure out what the issue could be. I've tried many things. Before you say it is the firmware, I've already made sure it's up to date. I have three batteries and every single one of them doesn't work. I calibrate the compass every time I fly and it doesn't help. Has this ever happened to someone else, and if so how could I fix the issue?

Looks like your Spark needs a trip to the DJI service center.

There are a lot of hints in the forum.

Hope you still have warranty, shoot a video, contact DJI, send it in.

Yes it's happened to many Spark owners. Im adding your thread to my thread that ive listed three other threads in that have loads of people reporting the same issue. It's clearly a major fault with the SPark that DJI are aware of but know if they admit to it, then they are liable for a total recall.
