So I flew today for a full battery, about 15 mins with no problems then I went to fly again about an hour later and it keeps coming up with “invalid system” “remove sd card” and now I can’t record any videos or take any photos.

I don’t want to format it as I don’t want to loose the videos and panoramas I’ve taken.

Anyone had this before and how do I fix it? I’m going to see if I can pick up another sd card tomorrow but I’m in the south of France on Easter weekend so I don’t know what will be open

First,  copy the files from the SD card to your PC or Mac, so that you won't lose them.   I do this after almost every flight.

Then maybe a reformat of the SD will fix the error.

Sidtx’s solution is the best way to fix it I believe. It’s happened to me before and all I needed to do was format the sd card through the dji go app

pop the sd-card into your mac or pc and copy the files , i would recommend you format the card using the sd card formatter which can be downloaded for free from the internet , pop your sd card back in your spark and you should be ok again.

check your sd card is at least a U class otherwise you will have this problem again.

Thanks guys. I didn’t bring my Mac with me so I think I’ll have to go out today and. Find a new card.
I’m using a Scandisk ultra plus V10 and it’s been fine for the last 6-8 months. I should really be traveling with a couple of spares anyway for this reason. I just hope I can fine some today.
