Connected to I phone, started up and flew a bit, then it lost communication with phone Wi-Fi, I watched some videos and by putting both arms in the air, it landed and stopped
Hope something is not wrong with unit
A bit scary

Losing signal from the phone, is this normal, I see the signal from phone is minimal

"The range, when connected to a smartphone, is pretty minimal"

Try using an OTG cable if you lose wifi connection.

It seems you are flying with your phone and gesture controls alone. I strongly advise you to buy an RC to get a more stable connection and make full use of the capabilities of the Spark.

Disconnect issues are common, you needto be in open areas for a stable phone flight.  Check my test out for a comparison

Why is it necessary to calibrate every time I start after switching off?
