Launched my Spark yesterday in an area I’ve Logged at least a dozen flights. It is an isolated area in South Texas, great wide open place. Everything went normal until the Spark was about a 1/2 mile out, I lost contact. I tried moving towards it and higher ground. No luck, I hit RTH. I started getting GPS errors and compass interference. I jumped in my truck trying to track it down. Once closer I found it hovering in a circle. It was hovering so fast I could not tell which way was back towards me. It started Auto Landing, I tried to cancel it, but it eventually landed somewhere? I used the app to try and find it, I got close because it connected again, and wanted to do a Firmware update. I cancelled the update and tried to get it to launch, immediately lost contact. Assumed the battery died at that point. Searched the area for hours, no luck. This is thick brush and cactus, hard to search. I was using the last coordinates recorded, but shortly after it logged those coordinates, started getting weak GPS warning. So I’m not sure how good the last coordinate was and the last altitude was 80 ft.
Help please. Not sure what else to do.
