Hi Mentje,

It probably told you that it has gone to ATTI mode now. Happens if there's too much magnetic interference, GPS signal loss (flying indoor or below trees blocking GPS reception), or the dreaded IMU failure (yaw errors, compass errors, GPS failure) which can happen sometimes.
If the bird goes into ATTI mode, you need to be aware and able to pilot it back yourself. RTH doesn't work anymore.
See this thread to get yourself some ATTI mode training.

DJI folks, can you pleeeease have a eye on this to stop this from happening?

Cheers,
Wolferl

Thanks for your answer Wolferl ... ATTI mode ... so you can fly but without gps .. perfect.
Ther must be a beep on the dji 4 app if you loose yout drone.

Hi Mentje,

Guess not many Spark users are happy to have ATTI mode as a surprise mode while flying in a stabilized GPS mode! When its windy (we do live in a country where the wind is always blowing) its hard to control the craft. Yes, can be learned but when the sh`*t hits the fan....be prepared for it!

if you like see my checklist.

Many happy landings,

Cheers
JJB

Did it FLY away, or "just" followed the wind?
