Glad it’s still helping folk.

[@menace1950]

This video would have to be the most imformative and easy to absorb that ive ever seen,congratulations mate.

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

menace1950 thanks that’s very nice of you to say.

[@mrplegend4729]

Very nicely done, simple and straight to the point. For fresh spark owners like me this video is priceless mate... Many thanks for taking the time for posting it..

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

Mrp Legend thanks for watching.

Great instructions, THX

[@Daniel-dl6fp]

Can't wait my drone is arriving this morning you earned a subscriber I liked the video too thanks for the video

[@torabelu7016]

Wow than really explained well thank

[@jeffpryor7164]

I got the dji mavic it was a hassel in setting it up. Was not east to fly to much in to flying it, took it back and got a easy to fly drone

[@uacl028]

I wish there was a current video (July 2018) that is available for the Spark today, not a year or so ago. But thanks for what you do

[@Accolades70]

Good video. Just about to go out and purchase my first drone. Same as video. Located in Queensland Australia.

[@kevinwilson4523]

Best instruction video on this subject yet!

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

Kevin Wilson thanks very much.

[@ShayNBrayden]

Finally!! A video that explains and goes over everything without missing anything! Thanks a lot bud

[@racheldavies9469]

Great video - I have connected to the RC wifi but cannot link the RC to the aircraft. Your video seems to have the aircraft already linked to the RC. I have scanned the QR code on the aircraft but keep getting message ' Cannot connect to Spark - xxxxx" Please help!

[@mohammedawad6806]

Hi, very good video, thanx..just 3days ago i buyed my second hand Spark combo with 4 batterys ..i see on my battery charger do all 3 batterys at the same time..i subscribe and hope to see your videos more :)

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

Mohammed Awad the software changed since the video so the batteries charge at the same time.

[@MD_ENTERTAINMENT]

Hello, I know this is an old video, but do you know where I can get spare batteries to buy

[@patrickmaris]

Nice video man ;-)

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

Patrick Maris thanks.

[@NayaLiberte]

hello good night my fan of the DJI spark is sounding it seems that it will touch something or there would be a space in the shaft, I opened it and uncovered it but I could not remove the noise the DJI spark is working perfect it is just that noise, you think you can fly it like that? have a serious problem? Can it be reheated? I appreciate your answer 🙏

[@michaelrodgers9829]

Great video. This is definitely helping me get started. Only thing I've noticed is the 2second delay on the throttle, I removed the props and turned on the motors then shut them off to test and it worked as it should. However I held up the drone like it was flying and held the throttle down to see if it would shut off and it did. So question is is this because it is that smart and wouldn't shut off if it was actually flying or is something wrong?

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

MR. FPV the drone will detect its no longer descending and shut the motors off. If it was actually flying it would keep the motors running till it’s on the ground.

[@michaelrodgers9829]

@@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors ok yeah I figured it was something to do with the sensors. I did end up trying it with props on and it didn't shut down. I appreciate your reply. Thank you

[@curtmaas68]

A wee notch...lol I love it!

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

Yes my Scottish slang comes through sometimes

[@MarkKerton]

Thanks for the info, great video. I have recently started flying a Spark, 3 videos on my channel so far. Do you suggest using a filter on the camera to improve quality? Thanks, Mark.

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

Mark Kerton I would only use filters for video work to smooth out the panning shots.

[@MarkKerton]

Marionville Multirotors Thanks for your reply. That’s my main concern, it’s sometimes a bit skippy on the panning! So I’ll get a filter fitted for the next flight and keep it at 60fps. Many thanks👍🏻

[@TrojanThugMusic]

My yuneec breeze is up for sale. As soon as it's gone. I'm getting this 😁👍

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

TrojanThugMusic yes. Good call.

[@jesusm.jimenezsr.9528]

Mannn. Ok, I buy yours lol :-), just kidding, I am glad I find your channel; good info.

[@jesusm.jimenezsr.9528]

I like your vid; good info I also like the sweater shirt, How can I have one?

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

Jesus M. Jimenez Sr. Thanks. I had the shirts made years ago for my staff. I think mine is the last one I have.

[@kiwivanman9035]

Are you missing somthing? do we have to update software or somthing..?

[@patmankc]

Hey bud, I have a lot of yaw on my DJI spark. Any way to calibrate the sticks on that?

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

pat0hh look under the advanced settings in the controller menus.

[@rosstinney2109]

Shouldn't the white cord be out straight because coiled up can cause resistence or reduced power?

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

Ross Tinney it's ok it makes no difference. The current its low enough not to be an issue.

[@hassanitani4538]

Hi. Please how to connected spark to control. Thx.

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

Hassan Itani once the controller is on it will show up on your phones WiFi networks. You can then connect to it wirelessly.

[@srtvlogs280]

Sir please help me..my drone is not connecting with rc

[@gewizz2]

why my spark looses phone wifi, and then just lands. ive been lucky to be near it to catch it.

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

Teeny Tike you can change the return to home in the settings so it’s returns to the take off point if you loose connection.

[@paramanandadas6742]

Hello Marion, I want to talk with you .How it will possible please?

[@rsparker922]

You should outline how to pair the remote with the drone.

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

rs parker I did intend to do a video on that subject.

[@danieliorga5381]

i can not connect the remote control to the mobile device . when i am typing the password from the back of remote it is saying the password it is wrong .

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

Of I remember right the default password is 12341234

[@ronnyphi7257]

how do you get it in the air flying without a phone app or wifi ?

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

Ronny Phi you need a device with the app to activate the drone.

[@ronnyphi7257]

@@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors ok thank you really appreciate it (:

[@octane2099]

what if im flying and im kinda far away maybe 1/4 of a mile and i dnt know how to bring it back home i press the home button and it will come back to me?

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

Gamingforfun 007 yes. If you get lost just press the home button and the craft will come home.

[@will_i_sammy2028]

But be aware that it won’t avoid obstacles if it’s over 80 meters or feet (can’t remember) because it’ll travel quicker. Therefor, if you loose it, it could crash

[@octane2099]

Will_I_Sammy but it should have a meter adjustment I can adjust when it comes home right on settings?

[@will_i_sammy2028]

Gamingforfun 007 No you cant because it’s travelling extra quick after 80m so it’s trying to get home quicker, as if it’s in sports mode. Like in sport mode, it disables obstacle avoidance.

[@Rondawwg]

Could I use a regular size iPad?

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

Ron Dawwg it won't fit. You would need an alternative mount like a show in the video.

[@Rondawwg]

Ah ok thank you.

[@Rondawwg]

This is the best guide I've seen so far! Getting my spark in a few days time..

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

Ron Dawwg good luck with it.

My Dji Spark Not Face Scanned

[@romeorozeta4998]

When I push the "connect" button on my IPhone, I get a message "no internet connection". Why?

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

romeo rozeta if it’s during activation you need to reconnect to the internet.

[@romeorozeta4998]

Are you referring to my smartphone being hooked to the internet? Because I do get data through my wifi. However my wifi does go through a microcell in my home since I live out in the country, if that makes any difference.

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

romeo rozeta ok. If you have mobile phone data then you can keep the phone wifi connected to the craft.

[@romeorozeta4998]

Yes, but the phone gives me the message " no internet connection" when I try to connect to the controller.

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

romeo rozeta are you using iOS or Android.

Random Encounters just got it today so I’ll start filming.

[@Mike-mg5nn]

Marionville Multirotors can’t wait! Thanks for the reply

[@mrzemm1645]

Sorry mate but 2 or 3 batteries will charge simultaneously. Maybe your firmware is not updated.

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

This video was made in 2017 a lot has changed due to firmware updates.

[@billmeador215]

Might be useful if the drone could be activated.......had mine for 4 days now, on line with DJI support for over 4 hours, waiting now for over 48 hours for the their 'engineers' to figure it out but the drone still not activate! First thing you say in your video is your gonna show us how to activate, but watched the whole thing twice and you never cover how to do that..........I've tried following DJI manual, the Go4 App instructions, and the DJI video, nothing works.......hoped your video would give me a clue but you don't mention it at all. Might subscribe it the thing ever works!!!

[@MarionvillemodelsMultirotors]

Bill Meador sorry about that. I must have already activated it before I did the video. Check this video. Although it’s for the Mavic it’s the same process. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqOud61serWHitU

[@billmeador215]

Well, guess there's more than an ocean between us.........by the way....was stationed in the UK for three years and loved it. Unfortunately, my Spark controller does not have a built in Lightning connector, DJI says I should use wifi to activate not a cable, and their video on using the Go4 app says to start the aircraft first - then the remote. Either way when I start the app I do not get any of the screens either you or DJI say I'm supposed to be seeing.

Plzz plzz Sir Give me the spark drone...For my crazy but costly dream and the availability in our region I amn't able to buy that one😔😔..plzz sir give me that one🥺🥺🙏🏻🙏🏻
