Hello everyone.

I wanted to know if you also download video files to 830-850kb/s (from spark to RC and finally to smartphone)

It seems a little slow ... with otg I did not try ...

It's much faster if you connect your phone directly to the AC wifi.

Ah, but it does not appear in the nets list

I take the SD card out of the AC and download it directly to the PC, fast and easy.

You dont even need to do that, you can plug the spark directly into the PC by USB and pick the files up off the SD card without taking it out of the Spark.

How do you download your completed (edited) videos without sharing them?  After I 'complete' editing I have the option to share... but I do not want to upload it to a service I just want it on the sd card.  I don't even think I can upload it since my wifi is logged into the RC (no internet).  
Anyway, I see the edited videos when I select create, but they are not on the sd card.  
thanks.

My PC has a SD card slot built in and it copies way faster than using a USB cable - tried it both ways.

I edit on my PC with Filmora, the editor built into the Go app isn't all that  great.
The reason you don't see the videos on the SD card is because the editor is running on your phone/tablet and stores the edited video in a folder there.

you can access to DJI Go app editor even if you arent connected to your drone..

if you are on andriod, you can connect your phone to the pc and download the dji folders... or iOS u can use itunes from pc to save those files

If you've been piloting the Spark with the remote control, the Spark will not broadcast it's SSID. You will need to power up the Spark (leave the remote control off) then on the back of the Spark press and hold the power button until you hear two beeps. Then the Spark will be broadcasting it's SSID. You can then connect your phone to the Spark's SSID, open up DJI go4, and download the original files.

It works in a pinch if you don't have a computer around and want to edit and share from a phone/tablet.

Side note: If you follow the directions above, the next time you want to fly using your remote control, you will need to re-pair your spark to your remote control. You can do this by powering on the Spark and the Remote control. Hold the power button on the spark till it beeps once. Then pick up the remote (powered on) and hold the Pause, Fn, and right shoulder button until the controller beeps. It should re bind the controller with the spark. If you have any trouble I'm sure youtube can help

oh thanks all

So when you hook up your phone to the RC wifi and download the vids, your downloading the actual 1080 copy of it correct? Do vids/pics get saved to your phones gallery by default as well when your shooting? Like on the Mavic.

think is stored in DJI's app, where you can select to save in gallery.. at least for iOS. not sure about android.

So how is it you are able to shoot video and have it save to the SD card,remove card and view/edit on PC? Is my only option going through DJI Go app on phone? I recently bought a Spark. My Phantom was fairly cut and dry with getting the videos.

I connect Spark directly to laptop with USB cable and down load with out the need to remove AS card. Just turn on Spark and cut and paste to the desired directory. Pretty fast. CUT and paste then also free space for the next time I take it out for flying. Works for me.

AS should read SD Card.

It's easy, connect the card to your PC using an adapter of some sort, open it as an external drive and copy the files over. They're in the DCIM directory on the card.
