Is there a way to adjust the flight control sensitivity on the Spark like there is on the Mavic?

I'm not really crazy about there not being anything between sloth speed (position mode) and full stupid speed (sport mode). Anyone heard of any plans in the works for fine tuning the Spark flight controls?

You can adjust the sensitivity of the RC reactions to the stick movings.
Which will also decrease the max speed

Thanks! Looks like that will help to solve the speed problem, now if they only had something similar for the remaining axis'...

Thank you for the follow up. I did follow his advice, but it still does not allow you to adjust all axis'. I wouldn't think that it would be like reinventing the wheel since this feature is built in to the Mavic software?

How are they going to sell any Mavic if all features were incorporated into the Spark

Yes, you are right. The cameras between spark and mavic is different, thanks for your attention.

I understand the differences between the Spark and Mavic, but the flight controls are essentially the same. When I speak of sensitivity gains, I am referring to the flight controls (yaw, pitch, etc.). I would think that DJI would give you access to tweak the gains.

Not trying to say bad words like PARROT, but even their bottom of the line drones (mambo) allow the user to adjust all flight controls...

What precisely do you mean by "remaining axis"?

I looked at an earlier post where a user described how to de-tune the Spark. But I am curious why we cannot tweak all axis' individually on the Spark. I feel like we should have the ability to tune / detune all control axis' (yaw, pitch, roll, speed, etc) in order to dial in our flight preference.

The Mavic gives you limited ability to do what I speak of by allowing us to tune / detune yaw, attitude and braking. Just saying that lesser drones (Parrot Mambo) gives you the ability to adjust not only sensitivity but the proportional / integral gains (curves) as well. Would think that DJI would do the same...

Thanks for your feedback. I would forward your requirement to our engineers.

That would be great! Hopefully they can work it in to the DJI Go app...

Did anyone get some feedback from the engineers or the admins about the sensitivity?
Or do we need to invest 1000+$ to get this feature?


4 months now and still waiting...

Anyone at DJI going to update us on this?  Its not about the camera gimbal, its about decreasing the sensitivity of yaw control when in Tripod mode, to slow it down even more.

DJI probably forgot about it which is maybe even worse than flatly saying the truth from the begging which is no fine tuning of sticks through the GO app for Spark.

There are parameters in Spark FW that can be fine tuned to have control over sensitivity curve (EXP), gains, yaw endpoint and breaking but they are not accessible from the DJI GO app.
Only DJI product that supports changing these for Spark is DJI Assistant 1.1.2 and even that is not straight "out of the box".
