All updates to all components. App updated. Calibrations done.

Flying in the same area as most of the miles this bird has racked up.

Seemed ok initially in standard mode. As soon as I switched to sport mode I started getting compass erros and IMU heading warnings. Exit P mode warnings. Atti mode warnings.

Switched back to standard mode and it settled down. Flew the same short path as in sport mode seemingly fine.

Back to sport mode. fly same path and immediately get warnings again.

Dunno what to say. This thing is not building my confidence. Seems like a black hole for spare time.

Everyone is going to ask you why did you calibrate.
Possibly the reasons you now have issues.

Pffft....if I can't calibrate it when in question and "reset" the calibration then why give the option. Better to make it non available until prompted.

To calibrate or not to calibrate? Seems like a small question.

Yeah, since the last update my spark has had a slight hesitation in sport mode.  No warnings on the compass or anything, but I also calibrated the imu and the compass (for shame).  I did this because of the hesitation.

I think imma put it in the box and go do something less irksome that doesn't constantly threaten to cost me 1100 bucks. I'll bring it out now and then to remind me how much fun it is doing other stuff.
