B live it bro...I’m confused as to how it flew at least 700 meters on 0% battery 🔋...isn’t is supposed to drop out of the sky?...at 0%..that was CRAZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZY!!!!...I had triple coronary bypass watching that???...the drone gods were blessing you!...🤪
I seriously can't get enough of this video. What an absolute edge-of-your-seat thriller! Aircraft loses signal, autopilot has to take over. But it's nowhere near fast enough, manual override is needed! Passengers are starting to panic. The app crashes a couple of times, lights are blinking, sirens are screaming! Fuel gauge hits "0%" and you look for an empty field to crash. Just amazing my dude!
thats so stressing to see xD you pushed your luck to the limit, safe rule, is always 30% to go out, 30% to come back, and 30% just in case something go wrong.
I was watching and your return home manual was draining it way faster. Had you left it in auto mode I believe you would have gotten it back with 10% to spare.
If you're worrying about not having enough charge left to get back the *last* thing you want to do is cancel RTH and take manual control. RTH is designed specifically to fly at the lowest possible power usage, also disabling gimbal (which also obviously will drain battery). Flying faster will *always* be more inefficient than flying slowly. If you had never cancelled RTH I bet you would not have seen the charge drop to 0%. But you did end up with an exciting video, so there is that.
I agreed with you my friend, the only case where flying an RTH manually thus faster would be beneficial would be in the case of a strong headwind on the return leg where the headwind speed would be too close to RTH speed (10m/s) and that it would result in a much longer flying time to return to the home point.
Thanos28GR that is indeed unexpected! You would assume that DJI has a way of determining the most efficient power settings depending on the situation for RTH. Hopefully they watch your video and can learn from it!
Well from a aeronautical point of view, a quadrotor or helicopter will use less power flying faster forward since the leading side of each propeller will create more lift for less rpm, but the critical speed and most efficient forward speed, highly depends on the way the prop is designed, the angle of incidence and many other design factors. Not sure how DJI calculated their RTH speed but faster is better to the point where the angle of attack AOT is at the sweet spot, beyond that sweet spot it's inefficient. this is much more noticeable in my very large drones where the battery voltage is carefully monitored, if you are running low on battery, you come back fast and adjust your speed to keep the battery voltage at its highest while returning, if you go too fast the voltage will dip, if you hover it will go into low voltage alarm.
The best DJI spark video ever! I betcha that even DJI didn't take it to that extreme! Loved every minute of it and good to know what my Spark is capable of.
OMG such an exciting video I was biting my nails till the end. These videos remind me of world war 2 fighter pilots finding a safe place to land or the moon landing with only 2 minutes to land before running out of fuel!
One of the most thrilling video's I have ever watched on RUclips! And what a exciting ending. I'm so glad you got the little Spark back on ground safely. It was amazing how far it flew with zero percent battery life.
It wasn't actually zero percent. That was the Go app. The battery has a "hidden" 10% reserve for LiPo maintenance. But he probably ruined that battery.
OMG that was funny! The dramatic music - the pucker factor of a Hollywood blockbuster! All there! When I realized it was a Spark, I couldn't believe it! Thought it was the Mavic! Excellent!!
Bravo Thano, Pano and kids - I had an auto-landing experience recently (in nearby Cyprus) where it started landing at 10% (I was in Dronie mode at the time) and it would not let me take over so it simply landed at the exact point that it was - we were on the edge of a cliff at the time and did not have a visual on it - it took us 6 days to locate it (helped by "find my drone" function) sitting on a ledge that was inaccessible by a "normal human so we had to dislodge it by throwing stones at it to get it to fall further where we could reach it - broke all propellers in the process along with 3 of the 4 LED covers and lost a battery but at least we are now reunited with the Sparky again. Unlike you, from the minute it hit 10% battery it did not let me steer or change the height - I guess because it was in a "mode" at the time and did not allow me to "Cancel" it... Where you using the OTG cable and/or the range extender shield? Great video - Πολύ εκπαιδευτικό!!!
wow such an amazing story!!! don't you have the video from that flight??? it would very interesting to watch it! No range extender. Yes I was using OTG cable. Also I sub to your channel (after all we need to help each other!)
Though I don't won the spark flying in this video, but still my heart started pounding and I was feeling as if the video is actually running live feed from my phantom 4 pro.. :( Thanks buddy you just saved me from an heart attack.. :)
The stop in 0:48 wasted you too many electricity. Thus you only started with 98%. If you are able to bring it back to where it starts, you will really break the record :). Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it very much. :)))))
you are absolutely right. Also if u observe better, there are other points also i wasted battery. I am preparing my next video at 4.600m now! Again all stock hardware! Let's see!
It would be amazing if you can do 4600 metres and back to homepoint. But for safety issues, it might be better if you have a boat or something that you can emergencely land your drone:))) So you save money
B Live It, I have been curiously waiting for your 4600 metres. Vedio. I have enjoyed this one a lot and watched it over and over again. I really hope that it will come out soon add oil!
I had the same experience , my old spark get 0% when return home, I forgot that I flight in bali mountain area and the wind is not friendly my spark landing smoothly between the rock without any damages. yah I feel lil bit heart attack for a while until I found out my spark
Wow, awesome and very educational. A few things I learned: don't start out with a tailwind (unless you know what you are doing), Spark allows you to exceed 0% battery limit as long as you are landing (though it's probably not good for the battery), and $#@#! OTG cable disconnects make you want to scream.
Gripped my chair (although I knew you'd make -it - otherwise there was no movie to see) - very good choice of music. Terrific video. simply amazing ! your other videos are great as well!!
Pushing it to the limit, no room for era! Pulled it off, made it back, well done, very lucky. Try doing that at midnight with a infra red, and thermal imaging camera, that would be fun to pull off!
Auto rth speed is lower than sport mode speed, but sport mode speed is too fast, it's not very efficient, but auto rth speed is also not very efficient. Try to fly at 50 to 55kmh.
And by rhe way, 0% battery doesn't mean that your battery is completely empty, it just means that your battery voltage goes under a value which is good for the health of the battery. For a lipo it is 3Volts per cell. But of course your lipo gives you power if you're under 3Volts per cell, too. You'll damage your battery though, but better by a new battery than a new drone. Also keep in mind, that all the electronics work different, when they don't give them the voltage they need to run, they won't work. e.g. your motors max rpm depends on the voltage. Such a tiny drone doesn't transform voltage up. They just transform the voltage down via step down convert technology, where it is needed. So your input voltage is the maximum voltage that the motors can get. => Just try to be safe and a bit paranoid with your batter. The 30% out, 30% back, 30% backup rule is good for planing your routes. And keep in mind where the wind is coming from. Happy flying!
Thanos28GR I found another solution. Why do we need hacked app? Just set fake gps for your phone, use USA city, the DJI GO will ask to change Wi-Fi setting cos of regional standards, press OK - you're running FCC now. Turn off fake location and press CANCEL next time app ask to change Wi-Fi settings. That's all and work for me even on today new .400 RC and .600 Spark update.
Fake GPS coords is dangerous, do not do that! It may cause a flyaway in case of connection loss / rth etc. (not recommended by the modder "Bin4ry" himself)
paralaxm you will use fake location only once, for first set-up, there is no need even to take off. All another flights you will use your true location and just pressuring CANCEL button, when it asks to change v settings.
Hi,just come across your video,fantastic piece of filming,I would never have attempted that distance.And may I say what a beautiful part of the world,would love to be there.Fly safe and enjoy.
Wow!! Great video, you probably have freaked out for a long time... maybe for all the way back. On the screen-capture we can see that you fought with the "Aircraft Auto Landing". Glade to see that you reached the beach, without almost nobody and with a low altitude. Great happy ending!!
What a wonderful thing to watch a spark survive after watching a similar video where it didn't because the user didn't take manual control, LOL, this is still pretty insane, seems like you had plenty of battery for the return yet it turned out to be a close call, guess it's a good idea to add some redundancy in case something doesn't go as planned which can happen even to the more experienced pilot. I love the addition of the music and the live video feed...makes it exciting.
Man I’ve been watching DJI vids for ten + years and I’ve watched at least 20 vids tonight and yours is by far the best. Loved the music and I was on the edge of my seat rooting for you to get home. I only have the Phantom 34k (WiFi only) but I’m saving up to get something better so I can reach out there. You truly inspired me tonight. You WIN my awesome ass video award of the day. I know that may not mean much to you but to me it does. Lol That was so awesome!!!!!
Tim Haskins its really inspiring hearing those words from you!! I really appreciate your comment!! I hear the mavic air is amazing!! Thank you so much. If you can please share it.
Yo!!!!!!!!!! How appropriate for me I was sitting on the thrown watching this. I just got my spark Thursday!!!!! I just knew from the title and watching it was gonna be lost at sea. Great video
That was so dramatic. I was eating my popcorn faster as the battery power went from 2% to 0% and it kept going.. Great video and I am glad it never got lost and fell in the sea!!
AMAZING little drone... Glad I have one. 😄😄😄😍 The most important part is, you kept your composure and was a cool 😎 pilot under extreme pressure. Well done! 👍🏾
I felt like I was watching one of Tom Cruise movies where you know is a movie with happy ending but you are still afraid the whole 9.10 minutes...we could have skipped to the end but no...I watched the whole movie :::))))) great video and music
Beautifull, I have a spark and the confidence has increased not for 4000m, and the background score kept me at the edge of the seat. Great, going to subscribe.
Great video, and very exciting! But two suggestions: when you continually get high wind warnings, pay attention! And it is often better to have higher altitude with a tail wind and lower with a head wind. So if you had gone out at higher than 30 meters, you could have saved power. And you would have gone faster below 30 meters returning. The ascent toward the end probably helped your glide ratio while landing (there is a small bit of autorotation in quadcopters), but it also used your last bit of battery. Anway, thank you for sharing this.
I was laying on my bed and At around 6:30 in the video I got up and sat on the bed chewing my nails.... that was brave of you to send little sparky towards open sea. Great engaging video.!!
BRAVO! BRAVO! I thought this was a Mavic, but no...it is a Spark? You just sold the Spark buddy, and i have not once ever been interested in the Spark. Great Video. Drone On...
You have guts, amazing. I am astonished you didn't get the warning of risk of severe battery damage if you don't land immediately. This happened to me, it wouldn't charge again on the charging dock. I had to use the USB lead direct to Spark and eventually got one led on the battery. After that, it charged normally.
Wow that was stressful!!!! Jajajja great flight and good decision making by climbing higher the last meters so when it decide to auto land you have that to go further! Wow
thank gawd you didnt have that annoying beeping noise playing through all that. my heart woulda stopped. As it was.. this was stressful enough to watch. great vid!
yeah that was a fantastic video and wild wild flight ! I have no were near the nerve to fly that far !!! my longest flight is 1000 M LOL ..... only have 95 flights. I guess I push myself more. (lost a $200 drone about a year ago no RTH)
I have a Spark since a week and almost died on your video. Awesome little Sparkies. :-)
5 лет назад
That was awesome 👏 thank god spark did a good landing at 0% batt. I relate much the point when saying goodbye to spark hahaha, this is what i like abt DJI than any other drone brands.
many people think that I did something to the drone (extra batteries, extra antennas etc). In fact what you see is out of the box Spark just "software-hacked". Enjoy your little bird!
This was more exciting than a NASA drone landing on Mars
One of the best comments so far!!! Thanks a lot. Please share it if you can!!!
Yeah because there is No mars
B live it bro...I’m confused as to how it flew at least 700 meters on 0% battery 🔋...isn’t is supposed to drop out of the sky?...at 0%..that was CRAZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZY!!!!...I had triple coronary bypass watching that???...the drone gods were blessing you!...🤪

Better than most hollywood dramas.
best comment ever!!! respect !
Exactly what i said to myself
Wow. That was amazing. Had me gripped all along. Good choice of music! 💯
Also well edited with the music, perfect timing to the end to
indeed the music was more successful than what i initially thought it would be :)
I lost my drone inside the ocean. Never try to do it guys. Get it home as soon as you reach 20%
Hassaan Ejaz so pity... i didnt believe it would make it also...
Man, that video was the real deal! Outstanding! And that record is amazing.
i am so happy you enjoyed it!!
Bogota,Paolo Urech
tech4all i
Great job of editing. Music was very appropriate. These things are amazing. Thanks for the post. You are top gun.
glad you enjoyed it!! sorry for the late reply!!
Holy cow! That was so intense! Crazy luck and outstanding video and music! Thanks!
So glad you enjoyed it!!! Thanks a lot!!!
thats so stressing to see xD you pushed your luck to the limit, safe rule, is always 30% to go out, 30% to come back, and 30% just in case something go wrong.
I agree with your rule. Nevertheless records are not made following the rules :)
Returning home with 70%?? You should just stick to the yellow 'H' on the app.
I was watching and your return home manual was draining it way faster. Had you left it in auto mode I believe you would have gotten it back with 10% to spare.
What about the missing 10%?
Me too. Safety first 🙈👍
If you're worrying about not having enough charge left to get back the *last* thing you want to do is cancel RTH and take manual control. RTH is designed specifically to fly at the lowest possible power usage, also disabling gimbal (which also obviously will drain battery).

Thanos28GR that is indeed unexpected! You would assume that DJI has a way of determining the most efficient power settings depending on the situation for RTH. Hopefully they watch your video and can learn from it!
That is incorrect. Manual return is much faster with only 1-2% increased drain. See this video for proof: ruclips.net/video/JpXAaA3y0ZQ/видео.html
Well from a aeronautical point of view, a quadrotor or helicopter will use less power flying faster forward since the leading side of each propeller will create more lift for less rpm, but the critical speed and most efficient forward speed, highly depends on the way the prop is designed, the angle of incidence and many other design factors.

man this is so fucking awesome..my heart was in my mouth till the end!!
Shared you vid!! you are doing some crazy things man.i am watching your others videos now.cheers mate you got a sub!!
Same here haha
One of the most thrilling video's I have ever watched on RUclips! And what a exciting ending. I'm so glad you got the little Spark back on ground safely. It was amazing how far it flew with zero percent battery life.

That is the most exciting bit of amateur footage i have ever watched - I was on the edge of my seat for the whole journey home!!
Michael FitzGerald thank you so much!! Share it if you can!!
This proves once again that the Spark is an amazing piece of technology!!! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for commenting!!! Its a lot more than another drone!!
you inspired me and tonight we lifted ours with my daughter at 402 meters in order to see the Danube from our suburb house in Budapest :D
@@samuelevinti glad to hear!!
I have Spark, for me it is like a triller
OMG that was funny! The dramatic music - the pucker factor of a Hollywood blockbuster! All there! When I realized it was a Spark, I couldn't believe it! Thought it was the Mavic! Excellent!!
Phil Roos amazing comment... thanks!!! Glad you liked it!! Share it if you can...
That was awesome! I wouldn't want to be you at 0% battery.. and the 5 meters thing at the end is a smart design from DJI. Well done :)
By the way, did you get this range after some hack or something or just using the stock remote without any workarounds?
stock remote! factory hardware
B live it lol you’re being disingenuous. He asked if you had any modifications. Obviously you DID modify the software.
I watch your perfect movie regularly - always with the same emotions ! ;-)
The best dji video I've seen so far, AMAZING
thanks a lot man!!! I really appreciate it!!! Share it with your friends!!
Very impressive, I would have been scared to fly this far. I also like the music you have placed on your video.
Stunning flight. I was truly on the edge of my seat.
Makes me want to start up my phantom 😀
thank you so much! glad you enjoyed it!! share it to the world!
Congratulations. I have not seen such an exciting video with a supermusic for a long time. Respect from an Austrian fan
Thanks a lot man!!! I totally appreciate it!!
On the edge of my seat shouting abuse at my screen, great video, thanks, hope to be getting a Spark in the next week or so.
Bravo Thano, Pano and kids - I had an auto-landing experience recently (in nearby Cyprus) where it started landing at 10% (I was in Dronie mode at the time) and it would not let me take over so it simply landed at the exact point that it was - we were on the edge of a cliff at the time and did not have a visual on it - it took us 6 days to locate it (helped by "find my drone" function) sitting on a ledge that was inaccessible by a "normal human so we had to dislodge it by throwing stones at it to get it to fall further where we could reach it - broke all propellers in the process along with 3 of the 4 LED covers and lost a battery but at least we are now reunited with the Sparky again.

Where you using the OTG cable and/or the range extender shield?

Though I don't won the spark flying in this video, but still my heart started pounding and I was feeling as if the video is actually running live feed from my phantom 4 pro.. :(
Thanks buddy you just saved me from an heart attack.. :)
Thanos28GR no.. It didn't... But I took your video too personal.. I felt that the spark is mine and i am gonna loose it now..
Thanos28GR check my travel videos shot with my phantom 4 pro.
ruclips.net/user/ChandanRoy
That was flipping thrilling! Most exciting drone vid I've seen on RUclips by far!
share it to the world!! your comment is the best by far!
I almost chewed off my finger nail :)
Most excitement I've had all day!!!!!! I had my spark fly away from me in a boat. I too said "Bye Sparky" , but it came back to me.
You are the man bro you are my hero!!!!
Once again adrenaline rush !!! Love the video!! Congrats for the new achievement!!!
The stop in 0:48 wasted you too many electricity. Thus you only started with 98%. If you are able to bring it back to where it starts, you will really break the record :). Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it very much. :)))))
you are absolutely right. Also if u observe better, there are other points also i wasted battery. I am preparing my next video at 4.600m now! Again all stock hardware! Let's see!
+Clement Tong you are right... and in other moments through the video i stoped... plus i should rerurn manually from the start...
It would be amazing if you can do 4600 metres and back to homepoint. But for safety issues, it might be better if you have a boat or something that you can emergencely land your drone:))) So you save money
I was thinking this time to go parallel to the coast line!
B Live It, I have been curiously waiting for your 4600 metres. Vedio. I have enjoyed this one a lot and watched it over and over again. I really hope that it will come out soon add oil!
Impressive, Bravo. We all have learnt a little more on Spark because of you.
so glad that I contributed a tiny bit to the drone community!!
You are welcome ...to go on ;-)
I had the same experience , my old spark get 0% when return home, I forgot that I flight in bali mountain area and the wind is not friendly
my spark landing smoothly between the rock without any damages. yah I feel lil bit heart attack for a while until I found out my spark
Oh hoooooooly.... this one was taking my breath away - literally... gosh.... I bow down for your courage man ;)
Fa Ra Thanks for the comment man!!

very nicely put !
Ownrisk Media I would have thought that would have been very bad for the battery
Ownrisk Media is
Gripped my chair (although I knew you'd make -it - otherwise there was no movie to see) - very good choice of music. Terrific video. simply amazing ! your other videos are great as well!!
thanks man!!! My favourite comment so far!! ;)
When headwind, drop your altitude. The lower you fly the less strong the head wind is.
Without a doubt, the greatest Spark video of all time!
Congratulations Sir. Certainly worth a few dendrites, that one...
Great music too:^)
A great song! Beethoven - Overture to "Egmont" op. 84
Pushing it to the limit, no room for era!
Pulled it off, made it back, well done, very lucky.
Try doing that at midnight with a infra red, and thermal imaging camera, that would be fun to pull off!
Auto rth speed is lower than sport mode speed, but sport mode speed is too fast, it's not very efficient, but auto rth speed is also not very efficient. Try to fly at 50 to 55kmh.
And by rhe way, 0% battery doesn't mean that your battery is completely empty, it just means that your battery voltage goes under a value which is good for the health of the battery. For a lipo it is 3Volts per cell. But of course your lipo gives you power if you're under 3Volts per cell, too. You'll damage your battery though, but better by a new battery than a new drone. Also keep in mind, that all the electronics work different, when they don't give them the voltage they need to run, they won't work. e.g. your motors max rpm depends on the voltage.

=> Just try to be safe and a bit paranoid with your batter. The 30% out, 30% back, 30% backup rule is good for planing your routes. And keep in mind where the wind is coming from. Happy flying!
THAT WAS totally EPIC! I laughed so hard... so happy you got sparky back! Battery UNDER ESTIMATED!
WEeee RV The Johnston's thanks for the comment!!! Indeed when DJI said 16 min it really meant it lol!!!
Amazing
glad you enjoyed it!
Wow. Very well done video. I was at the edge of my seat the whole time ! Bravo !!
Thanks a lot!!! I appreciate it!!! Share it if you can!!
Please, show me how to enable FCC mode! Want to use my spark at full potential! :)
Thanos28GR what spark and RC firmware are you running?
Thanos28GR I found another solution. Why do we need hacked app? Just set fake gps for your phone, use USA city, the DJI GO will ask to change Wi-Fi setting cos of regional standards, press OK - you're running FCC now. Turn off fake location and press CANCEL next time app ask to change Wi-Fi settings.
That's all and work for me even on today new .400 RC and .600 Spark update.
Fake GPS coords is dangerous, do not do that! It may cause a flyaway
in case of connection loss / rth etc. (not recommended by the modder "Bin4ry" himself)
Thanos28GR it seems like only Spark work this way, other drones has no such pop-up window!
paralaxm you will use fake location only once, for first set-up, there is no need even to take off. All another flights you will use your true location and just pressuring CANCEL button, when it asks to change v settings.
Love it the way you have sync music with this thrilling landing 👌

Definitely good video. But the LiPo cells can not handle that extreme drain. That battery is toast, or soon will be.
Man I’ve been watching DJI vids for ten + years and I’ve watched at least 20 vids tonight and yours is by far the best. Loved the music and I was on the edge of my seat rooting for you to get home.

man it was amazingly put together, you made it look like landing on the moon, I really rooted for the Spark XD keep the work going
thanks a lot my friend!! Glad you enjoyed it!!
Yo!!!!!!!!!! How appropriate for me I was sitting on the thrown watching this. I just got my spark Thursday!!!!! I just knew from the title and watching it was gonna be lost at sea. Great video
thanks a lot man! I wish you fully enjoy your drone!!! When you have some video you wanna share please do!!
I sure will. Especially once I get familiar with these drone laws
That was so dramatic. I was eating my popcorn faster as the battery power went from 2% to 0% and it kept going.. Great video and I am glad it never got lost and fell in the sea!!
love to see things pushed to the limits, epic video!
so glad you liked it !!

Ohhh you will enjoy it so much!!! Have fun with it!!!
New breath holding record! Great use of the music too.
hahahahaha!!! thanks a lot man!!!!
Perfect music selection, great vid. What we have learnt: never go too far above the sea, kids.
well at least not headwind !! ;) Thanks a lot for your comment man! Cheers!
Beautifull, I have a spark and the confidence has increased not for 4000m, and the background score kept me at the edge of the seat. Great, going to subscribe.
Nice video.... u got major lucky that battery didnt fully give out at 0% and im happy u got your drone back ;)
Tibor Koevari thank you... i couldn't believw it myself...
That was a f... awesome ride you have me there. AWESOME! THANKS!
the music make it 3 times more exciting, really love ypur crescendo style jajaja
thank you man !!! Appreciate it!
Great video, and very exciting! But two suggestions: when you continually get high wind warnings, pay attention! And it is often better to have higher altitude with a tail wind and lower with a head wind. So if you had gone out at higher than 30 meters, you could have saved power. And you would have gone faster below 30 meters returning. The ascent toward the end probably helped your glide ratio while landing (there is a small bit of autorotation in quadcopters), but it also used your last bit of battery. Anway, thank you for sharing this.
You were lucky to get it back! Great video - very dramatic
so glad you enjoyed it!
I was laying on my bed and At around 6:30 in the video I got up and sat on the bed chewing my nails.... that was brave of you to send little sparky towards open sea. Great engaging video.!!
it is comments like this that make me feel so happy I shared this experience with you guys!
BRAVO! BRAVO! I thought this was a Mavic, but no...it is a Spark?
You just sold the Spark buddy, and i have not once ever been interested in the Spark.
Great Video.
Drone On...
Nice video , i like it. My adrenaline pumped when the spark batteries 0% .Amazing 👍👍😀
You have guts, amazing. I am astonished you didn't get the warning of risk of severe battery damage if you don't land immediately. This happened to me, it wouldn't charge again on the charging dock. I had to use the USB lead direct to Spark and eventually got one led on the battery. After that, it charged normally.
Wow that was stressful!!!! Jajajja great flight and good decision making by climbing higher the last meters so when it decide to auto land you have that to go further! Wow
Great job man, really amazing landing
thanks a lot bro !
Jesus! You had me on the edge of my seat! Lucky you!
that distance with such a small device is really amazing
Great range test and awesome you got it back. Love the Sparky.. Subbed:)

Thank you so much!! I really apreciate it!!!
Honestly, this got my heart pumping. I need a beer now.
I wish I was there to buy that beer for you!! Glad you enjoyed my video!!
wow crazy landing man lucky you did not lose it to the sharks.. good job never try that again eh..
Thanks 👍
yeah that was a fantastic video and wild wild flight ! I have no were near the nerve to fly that far !!! my longest flight is 1000 M LOL ..... only have 95 flights. I guess I push myself more. (lost a $200 drone about a year ago no RTH)
Wow!, I am glad that I picked the right choice. The Spark all the way!. Btw, great editing and cool video.
so very glad you liked the video!
I have a Spark since a week and almost died on your video. Awesome little Sparkies. :-)
That was awesome 👏 thank god spark did a good landing at 0% batt. I relate much the point when saying goodbye to spark hahaha, this is what i like abt DJI than any other drone brands.
Amazing video and amazing pilot ! Well done guy !!!
o man this is amazing now im very glad that i bought it few day back. love it... it just killing it
many people think that I did something to the drone (extra batteries, extra antennas etc). In fact what you see is out of the box Spark just "software-hacked". Enjoy your little bird!
woow man , this video is very incredible, the spark has a very nice performance. I felt scared watching video.
thank you so much!! So glad you liked it!
Holy shit that was intense. Thanks for making this it was insane
wooow!!! 1200€ flying whiout control!!! I was felt this the past days🤣🤣 good video bro!!
