Not sure if it is just CE related but that might be the case.
Just had a reply from someone flying over 1000m far without issues, (FCC of course)

They have limited the flight distance with the OTG cable connected. I'm not happy with this, as feel unconfident to fly without the cable connected.

OTG is not officially supported, so why all are complaining about it?
Just use the Spark as it is intended to use. The Saprk is a selfie drone, buy a Mavic if you want a rock solid video transmission over several kilometers.

What the f!@#%k did you say???Is that true?Without otgi cant fly more than 200 metres in 5.8 ghz....I dont even want to speak for 2.4 ghz...

Yup its true, I checked with both the cable connected and disconnected. The flight limits are capped at 50m up and 100m distance, if you take the cable out, you can adjust the max distances again. You can also select frequency and channels now, based on the strongest wifi

Friend you have misjudged me....I don want many kilometers distance....I want only that they advertise 500 meters with no drop out signal and stable image in 2.4 ghz and 300 in 5.8 ghz,.......Well i don't have anything of that. 2.4 ghz is not working in eu ( channel issue) 5.8 ghz it goes 100 meters then problems started.....The only way to achieve what they advertises was OTG.....I am very frustrated

This is with the iOS update. You can check by going into the distance settings to see if this applies to Android also

I think some DJI employee should clearly tell about this.
We should not be the ones to figure out. Just like the update notes they write, they have to notify everybody that they are limiting some stuff due to some reasons.
