PRODUCT
In addition to being lighter and smaller than the Mavic Pro,Spark was designed with new drone users in mind. Advanced gesture controls allow users to launch, direct, and land Spark with just their hands. For more intuitive on-screen control, Spark's TapFly Mode now includes Coordinate, letting you tap an exact location on screen for Spark to fly towards. In addition, QuickShot Mode allows users to fly along four preset flight paths while recording short videos for cinema-quality footage. Spark gives users professional control without hassle. In contrast, the Mavic Pro features a more powerful camera capable of shooting 4K video (as opposed to Spark's 1080p video), longer flight times, and an OcuSync transmission system suitable for long-distance aerial photography.

*It's not recommend to use the Patriot EPPRO 64GB MicroSDXC UHS-3.
No. It is recommended to avoid flying Spark in rain, fog, snow, or wet weather. Also avoid landing in or taking off from puddles, as the chassis is close to the ground.
CAMERA
Spark supports ShallowFocus and Pano modes, which includes Horizontal and Vertical modes.
ShallowFocus creates photos with a shallow depth of field with its 3D vision technology.
Vertical Mode: The camera will capture three photos vertically, then combine them to make a vertical panorama.
Horizontal Mode: The camera will take nine photos from different angles vertically and horizontally, then combine them to make a horizontal panorama.
Yes, you can. The aircraft will store photos and videos on your mobile device. In this instance, the images captured are actually from the live stream with a photo resolution of 1024×768 and video resolution of 1280×720.
Vision
Spark will automatically avoid obstacles up to 16 ft (5 m) in front of it. The maximum speed at which Spark is able to sense obstacles is 3 m/s.
Spark is the first DJI drone to feature new TapFly submodes, Coordinate and Direction.
In QuickShot mode, Spark takes professional shots for you with Rocket, Dronie, Circle, and Helix.
Spark’s Gesture Mode also includes a new set of advanced gesture recognition capabilities, including PalmControl, Follow, Beckon, and PalmLand.
Remote Controller
Spark’s remote controller fits mobile devices 6.5‑8.5 mm thick and up to 160 mm long, without a phone case. Mobile devices larger than this do not fit the remote controller’s device holder.
The remote controller firmware can be updated in DJI GO 4.
It takes 2 hours to fully charge the remote controller for up to 2.5 hours of operation.
Press the Pause, Fn, and C1 buttons at the same time. Once the controller starts beeping, release these buttons. With Spark powered on, press and hold the battery power button. When you hear Spark beep, release this button. Linking is now complete.
The remote controller supports 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz dual‑band Wi‑Fi frequencies.
5.8 GHz transmission is not available in some regions due to local regulations.
The remote controller is approximately 15 cm long, 8 cm high, and 6 cm thick.
Propulsion
No. Just fold the propellers.
Once the rotors start spinning, centrifugal force will automatically unfold the propellers into the correct position.
No. Each motor sits at a 5° angle for optimal flight performance.
Spark can withstand wind speeds between 13‑18 mph (20‑28 kph).
Video Transmission
720p 30 fps.
The video transmission latency to your mobile device is about 200 ms. It is subject to the performance of your mobile device and signal interference.
When connected to a remote controller:

2.4 GHz
FCC: 1.2 mi (2 km); CE: 0.3 mi (500 m); SRRC: 0.3 mi (500 m) (unobstructed and free of interference)

5.8 GHz
FCC: 1.2 mi (2 km); CE: 0.18 mi (300 m); SRRC: 0.7 mi (1.2 km) (unobstructed and free of interference)

When connected directly to a mobile device:

A max height of 50 m and distance of 100 m.

5.8 GHz transmission is not available in some regions due to local regulations.
Yes. Users can manually choose between 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz or let DJI GO 4 choose a frequency band automatically.
There are three places where you can check this information:

- The battery compartment on the aircraft (only the default Wi-Fi username and password can be found here);

- The Settings option in DJI Assistant 2 or DJI GO 4;

- The foam outer box (only the default Wi-Fi username and password can be found here).
To reset, hold the battery down for 9 seconds until you hear the aircraft beep three times.
To modify, connect your mobile device to Spark, enter the DJI GO 4 app, and modify the Wi-Fi username and password in the Connection Help Menu.
(Note: If Spark is connected with DJI Assistant 2 on a computer, restart the aircraft before resetting the Wi-Fi username and password.)
This may be because Spark was previously connected to the remote controller. To prompt detection, power on the aircraft, then press down on the power button for six seconds until you hear the aircraft beep twice. This indicates that Spark’s Wi-Fi is now detectable on your mobile device.
Battery
Use the included USB cable to charge Spark. During charging, do not remove the battery from the aircraft.
Use the Charging Hub to charge three batteries simultaneously. If using the Charging Hub, you will need to remove the batteries from the aircraft and place them in the Charging Hub.
New batteries are shipped in Hibernation Mode. In order to activate your newly purchased battery, charge it fully.
When using a standard USB charger, it takes 80 minutes to fully charge a battery.
When using a Charging Hub, it takes 52 minutes to fully charge one battery, 55 minutes when charging two batteries and 85.2 minutes when charging three batteries at the same time.
It is recommended to fully charge Spark batteries at least once every three months.
When a battery is less than 10% charged, it will enter Hibernation Mode after approximately six hours of nonuse.
When a battery is completely drained, it will enter Hibernation Mode within 10 minutes of turning off.
- Turning the battery on and off: Press the power button once, and then press again and hold it down for at least two seconds to turn the battery on or off.

- Checking the current battery level: Press the power button once to check the current battery level.

- Linking Spark and the remote controller: Hold down on Spark’s power button for three seconds, and release on hearing a beep. Spark’s front indicators will start to flash in red, signifying Spark and the remote controller have been linked.

- Delinking Spark and the remote controller: In order to use your mobile device to control Spark, you will need to delink the aircraft and remote controller. Power on Spark, and hold down on Spark’s power button for six seconds until you hear it beep twice. Now Spark and the remote controller have successfully been delinked and you can search for Spark’s Wi-Fi on your mobile device.

- Resetting Spark’s Wi-Fi username and password: Hold down on the power button for nine seconds, and release after hearing it beep three times. Your Wi-Fi settings will be reset to the factory default.

- PalmLaunch: Power on Spark and place it on your palm with the camera facing you. Make sure your fingers are lower than Spark’s arms. Press the power button twice when the flight indicators start to flash green. The indicators will change to a slowly flashing yellow, and FaceAware will begin to recognize your face. The front indicators will turn to green if detection is successful, and PalmLaunch will be activated. If not, the indicators will flash red.
You can charge two mobile devices or your Spark.
Updating Firmware
No. If you do, the update will fail. You will then need to download the firmware and update again.
Before the update is complete, Spark will need to restart. Once it does, reconnect your mobile device to Spark’s Wi-Fi. DJI GO 4 is just reminding you that you will need to do this for a successful update.
Yes.
No, but it is recommended that both have a high level of battery charge during the update.
Connect Spark to DJI GO 4, and the app will inform you of appropriate updates to ensure consistency.
Please wait patiently and do not operate Spark or the remote controller during the update. Usually, it takes two minutes to update the remote controller and five minutes to update Spark. If the update process is taking much longer, please check your internet connection or move to a different environment. You could also restart Spark and the remote controller to begin the update again.
- Low battery level. Make sure the battery level is higher than 50%.

- Powering off Spark or the remote controller during the update. If this happens, please restart Spark/remote controller and begin the update again.

- Internet disconnection when downloading firmware.

- Aircraft and remote controller firmware version inconsistency. Use DJI GO 4 to update the aircraft and remote controller to the latest version.
It is recommended that you use DJI Assistant 2 on your computer to update your aircraft.
Please note that Spark will restart once the update finishes.
