Hi Spark and Window users,

For better understanding of my flightrecord i made a analysis program.
Its still a beta version, but after analysing many files i can say its working great!

Its freeware so if your are interested download it using the following link.
https://mega.nz/#!JbxRGK5L!7p27sflpQrmk5z_uFpi9sD36_t15VqY9EmXYR1S87YU

PS program does not change anything to your computer.

New PS. its better to have the files in seperate directory! CSV file`s must not be mixed. (read the 'help' button in te program)So the original flight record must be in the TXT directory, program converts it to a large size CSV in the same directory.

Have fun!
Cheers JJB

just a preview of one of the screens (not the latest version).

ITS A VIRUS!!!!

just kidding, looks cool! thanks!

So, how does it work???  Does your program come with instructions???

can we have the source code as well?

Thanks for sharing... I gave it a try... It is giving me an error about 0,0 is not a valid floating point ... and it is complaing about the txt to cxv tool being missing.
I changed the path configurations to reflect the directory where I have the .csv file..
I assume that the thee path variables are for .cxv .kml and .txt????  Not that it matters.. I have all the files in the same directory.

Very nice, thanks for sharing.

Couple of things as a feedback from initial brief review:

1. Program uses hardcoded decimal separator. That's why on US settings it throws an error. I customized temporary for decimal separator to be the "," instead of "." and it works. That means you need to query the OS for decimal separator, not use hardcoded one.

2. About window unable to be closed except with Alt+F4

3. Clicking on Maps does not work for me.

4. Table with data has only ID header, other headers are blank.

5. Problems with window sizing if taskbar not set to autohide. Again, something that should be queried, not hardcoded.

Eagerly awaiting 2.5b version.

Awesome app! Downloading now... Thanks!

How did you fix the 0,0 problem.

I did find the txt to csv program and downloaded it.. but even using a csv file from that gives me the same error   0,0 is not a valid floating point.

Very nice work!! Thank you for sharing.

Look like a good software. I think users can learn a lot from it. But when the drone goes wrong, we still need the original data for analysis instead of the result. Thanks for your support.

Nice work.
Just out of curiosity what did you use to make it with?

Looks like Delphi (Pascal) to me.

In regional settings I set decimal symbol to ",".

Thanks

No mac version?

Might be true indeed.

Hiya,

Thanks for testing!  

1. agreed, will change that
2. esc or spacebar closes it as well
3. ok, depends on how yor windows deals with the extension
4. uh?
5. please explain, don`t understand what you mean

regards JJB

So what is it called? Spark Flight Analysis Program?
Thanks for sharing!

HI Louis,

Mayby this error occured with the mixing of CSV files.
See the new PS in my first post

Yes, made in Delphi Berlin.

Thanks Elektra, i fully agree when it goes wrong we need DJI to help and solve the problems.

My program gives the user (i hope) more understanding what he/she is doing with a drone.

What i like best is to see the move direction wich is not always the heading of the drone!
Gives also a feel what wind is doing to the drone.

JJB

Mooi werk
(nice work)

A very valuable contribution to the group JJBspark. Congrats and thanks.

HI Louis,

Mayby this error occured with the mixing of CSV files.

Still doesn't work for me :-(
I made separate directories for txt and csv and put a .txt file in the txt directory.
The program found it and made the large csv file.
But, I still get the error '0,0' is not a valid floating point number

Thanks for sharing

AHH...  That worked... thanks

Thanks for your feedback and attention. If you have any idea, please keep us updated.

Your welcome,

To be honest, i have lots of idea`s how to improve the DJI Go app.

For example; just had my first YawError due to magn interference; flying in a known safe area far from metal etc (so why?? a error). Drone was in sight and switching my eyes from the RC-phone and the drone i just saw a message about magn inteference. For me the alert to watch the drone and fly it back home.
Afterwards i read the flight file and noticed that it had flown in ATTI. Ok, during the flight i did not noticed that! A Spark in ATTI mode means there is something wrong, why not let the RC beeps for3 times [ BEEP - BEEP - BEEP ] to alert me that my Spark is off any controlled mode and now flying in ATTI mode! Its so easy to miss a message on the screen while watching a drone.

best regards,
JJB

Thanks for your suggestion. Please feel free to tell us more ideas. I would forward them for improving our product.

Hiya,

Thanks for testing!  

thank you for your valued software .  I'am now going to try and use the software .

Hi, very nice app you have developed, i like different windows with the the graphs ant the looks. But still, I'll be using CSVview since it chews only txt files, is it absolutely necessary to have those csv files from phantom site? When you have few flight records to analyze it not very convenient to upload/download stuff.

Hi Raimenzo,

thanks for your positive comments. You can use your own flightrecord.txt file but it still need to be converted into a csv file. In the program you can read wich other (for personal use only) software you need. So no need to up- and download 'stuff'.

cheers
JJB

Hi all,

Update 2 of my program, see https://forum.dji.com/forum.php? ... D534%26typeid%3D534 (mavic air section)

cheers JJB

Good idea that looks like it took time to build?

Good idea that looks like it took time to build?

started end last year....few hours a day i guess.
Getting new ideas all the time, reading and analyzing flight files on this forum
Last feature i added was the disconnect one, now you can see where the drone was during that disconnection. (ofcourse when it will connected after disconnect)
cheers JJB

At least apple can be liked in some ways, similar cannot be said about windowz

Good work, that gives everyone more idea on quantifying the overall flight data into more understandable notes.

Looking forward to getting to use it this summer, hope you keep up the life cycle on it.  Thanks for sharing.
