I just want to use my drone. It's ridiculously difficult to get going. QR codes don't scan. The app constantly crashes. And now the drone is locked! It says I need the latest firmware but i have installed the latest firmware. This seems like a fairly common problem so why doesn't DJI do something about it?!?! Plus the battery barely lasts 15 minutes. I really wish I went with another brand.
Unbelievably complex "simple" steps to connect to the phone. Wow, remarkable how complex they made something that should be a "one button" setup. #Fail
Nice tutorial! But you should add a auto-connect function within the app, meaning that if the Sparks or RCs network is found the phone automatically connects to it. Going into the phone settings everytime is a bit annoying.
Thank you DJI. I've had the Spark for 3 days and couldn't figure out how to link the remote. It works OK with just the phone app but it was frustrating not being able to use the remote that I had paid for. It's all better now.
All I know is that I did exactly what the guy in the video did and it worked. There was a lot of pausing and going back a few seconds to make sure. Good luck.
Brian, I am having the same problem you had with my new Spark. The remote won't link. The Spark will link via WiFi with my phone, but I don't want to fly it using my phone. I have followed a half-dozen tutorials with no luck. An entry-level drone shouldn't be this difficult! How did you finally get yours to work?
Step 6: follow the instructions in the required DJI app for a week without flying your drone and wonder if you made a wise purchase. Step 17: sacrifice a chicken* Step 32: if you have not already, begin cursing the design team and management responsible for such a piece of crap pairing process. Step 135: watch videos of others who are actually able to pair their devices and question of they are some kind of electron wizard, maybe Neo from the Matrix could help? Step 487: finally get the drone in the air and watch it zoom off never to be seen again. *chicken not included
FOR EVERYONE WHO can’t connect their phone to the spark do this step by step directions 1. Fully turn on your drone 2.hold down the drones power button until you hear 2 beeps. 3. Turn off your drone 4. Turn it back on. 5. Connect to its WiFi (password and name is on spark and on its box.
Ya my spark Works because I had to connect to the remote's wifi (I have the combo) then I scan the spark then it would work since it's already paired with the drone itself
discovered today, by calling dji, if you have the fly more remote, you have to connect the the remote and not the spark. the wifi that shows up on your phone is to the remote not the drone. so, use the info on the back of the remote controller. you can bet i told DJI they might want to let customers know........
this is unbelievable - a seemingly brilliant product, but hopeless manual, ambiguous instructions, the smallest print possible, light gray text on white, the stupidity is mindboggling - support useless so far - I also have a Mavic Pro, but so far have been unable to get the spark to fly - they should get themselves a pro manual writer ... sorry about the rant, just so frustrating...
Hi DJI Team - I just wondering if I change my spark Wi-Fi password to prevent somebody stealing my drone but in the video saying we could change it back to factory default password which is written on the spark body itself so what is the point changing the password? I just didn't get it or maybe there is a different way to protect it?
SUPER IMPORTANT NOTE: If you have the Fly More combo, the controller and drone are already paired with each other, all that you will have to do is to connect to the controller's wifi (SSID and password on the bottom) then launch the DJI GO 4 app and get the drone activated and pass the FAA drone quiz. (quiz in the U.S idk about other countries.)
Do I SERIOUSLY need to relink the RC and the Spark EVERY TIME I switch from app remote mode to the RC!? How cumbersome would that be. Or do I simply hold the Spark's power button for 3 seconds and it will relink with the recently paired RC?
Problems: I keep getting this message telling me it's going to change WLAN settings because I'm in the wrong country (it's an obscure place called the USA), and I should connect later. (Later is at least a week, apparently). My phone can't read these tiny QR codes. My Spark Wi-Fi won't stay connected with my phone for more than 3-4 seconds. DJI Assistant 2 keeps giving me this weird DOS error message, but it seems to be installed. I'm supposed to have a spare computer (for a total of one phone and two computers) to help update the software (or whatever I'm trying to do, I have so many issues that it's hard to remember). I need about 5 spare batteries to last long enough for customer service to give me the right answer. Maybe I'm just stupid. I'm sure some [censored] will let me know.
You are going to fast. Explain yourself as there are reasons for what you are doing. Almost useless as most of what you said did not work. It would not scan for me etc.
Just got one today. It did the same thing and would not scan the QR code on the box, but it did scan the one on the spark. I am using a Galaxy s7 edge. Pain in the butt to go through the whole connection process. It is very confusing and I am very tech savvy and have been flying RC airplanes and helicopters for years. Ridiculous how hard this is to connect. I do not have the remote, just my phone. As others have said, it could easily be a one button connection. No reason to be this hard. It will work on Android, but come on, make this easier DJI.
yep still can't scan the QR code..fails everytime. So I seem to have set up the Remore Control QR code as my 'Spark' Internet setting ?! Should this be the drones Internet setting and not the controllers ? any answers welcome.
When hitting continue on the Set your virtual joystick mode (default 2), it says Network Disconnected, please connect to network first. How is this so after connecting Spark wifi with the machines wifi password? Note: Using ipod 7.
** TIPS IF YOURS IS NOT WORKING** Turn on your drone and hold the button on the battery for 9 seconds. You should hear D-DD-DDD. Now re open the app and press “activate the aircraft” scan it and it should work. Go to WI-FI and try connecting to your aircraft. Follow these steps very closely and it should work!
Android works fine, unlink your spark from your controller (power up spark, then hold power button in for 6 seconds, you will hear 2 beeps), then go to your phone and wifi settings, and you will see your spark.
when i conected controler phone and drone, I cant see drone wifi. Is possible to have controler and spark wifi? I dont wanna switch on controler every single time when I wanna just download video from spark. Is it possible??
You have great video but i still fail to link my spark with my controller and my phone. First I try to connect to wi-fi, instead it disconnects the wi-fi when I enter the password. I am not an expert in operating any of the devices but i try many times and i just cant seem to start any of it. I am not sure what i have to do to use the hand gesture controls ether. I thought i can operate the flight by simply first click once, then click twice for starting then quick click twice to do the face recognition and it will fly, nothing works. Please can you advise me how to do any of it please?
This is garbage the QR scan label is so small that it has never worked for me, I have tried to put it in using the sparks WI-FI settings and that fails as well. I do not know how other people get them working as mine has never flown yet.
Hello sir can you review the wi-fi in iphone because my iphone it conncet in spark controler but it will say no wi-fi..i can fly in the house but i can not fly out in the house because it will say no wi-fi..can you review to plsss
Hi Kyle, could you please restart it and re-link again to check if it works or not? If the issue persists, you may try another mobile device just to do the troubleshooting.
If I may, would you kindly tell me if the DJI Go 4 I uploaded for my DJI Spark . has a "Voice Messages Sound Effects"? When I view UA-cam, I see those Flyers play with their DJI Spark and hear the Voice Messages whenever they fly their Drones, which I feel so impressed and excited to have in mine but to no avail, whenever I do it myself. Well you see, I'm an old man, who fly Dji Drones during my free time and I fantasized having those Voice Messages, to alert me and warn me if He is up in the air, rather than using my Mobile Phone's screen , to look after my DJI Sparkee, in the Control Icons, which I missed to look after because of my old weary eyes. Please help. Thank you very much.
moreover, the robotic female voice says - Please complete the aircraft status before taking off, Atti Mode, PGPS mode, The home point has been reached, please check it on the map. Go home, Stop going home, Maximum flight distance reached, maximum altitude reached, You are in the No fly zone, the aircraft cannot take off, etc.
Are you not aware of it? ...that there is such brilliant ideas like that which help the Old Flyers to be alerted and warned verbally (voice over messages ) without having to look at the screen to know what's going on...hahaha that's fantastic, isn't it?
Yes sir..i conncet the wi-fi in controller okay but it will say to your wi-fi that no internet conncetion so it can not fly in the out side to my iphone 7 i can see it to your review if you will connet na to your iphone
This is normal for iPhone that there is ''no internet conncetion'' on Wifi Settings even though the wifi has been connected, please enter DJI Go 4 APP to see if the RC has been connected. If there is no luck, please reset RC's wifi: press and hold the remote controller’s power button for nine seconds. When the remote controller makes "DDD-DD" beeping sounds, the Wi-Fi is reset.
I have big problem. I found a good deal on a used Spark. When i tried looking for the password on the drone's sticker, the pass and about a quarter of the QR code were erased. Since it's been a fairly old Spark and the part of the deal was a new case i didn't get the original box. Now i can't connect to the drone in order to update the firmware so i can connect it via the OTG cable. I can connect to the RC's WiFi, though so it at least works, but connecting via the cable would give me a much more stable image on my phone. Is there a workaround to this problem.
Ok....so what if you don't have the fly more combo?? Ummm I have a galaxy s7edge.....and it says cannot scan qr code....? What to do ....what to do????
i thought this was sarcasm. but jesus christ if you seriously can't handle the instructions of the dji spark you definitely won't be building your own drone let alone flying a phantom 4. this is the most dummy proof drone there is. it even has sensors to stop you from bumping into things. maybe you're just an idiot.
BTW, the cable that comes with your Spark or Mavic that is supposed to connect to your controller doesn't work. You have to buy an after market OTG cable or call DJI for a replacement cable made in the USA. Supposedly, the new firmware for the Mavic eliminates the use of the OTG cable. Well, no! Your controller (or at least mine) won't bind with the drone unless I use an after market cable.
to help you guys out the one main problem i had was pairing the spark to the remote controller you hold the power button on spark for 3-4 seconds and once the red light starts blinking on the spark you turn on the controller and press the red pause button then the fn button and then the black bumber on the back (not at the same time in, a quick sequence in the order i stated. every video i watched made it seem like you had to press them at the same time (Hopefully i was alright at explaining it),
Mine stayed red all 4 lights on the drone. I’m so frustrated I can’t get it. Fly more combo. I couldn’t get any wifi it says no internet. So I held the button for 6 seconds now it stays red....??
Activating not possible without qr code, if your mobile data connection is on. So: 1. Join your mobile to the RC with hand >> in wifi connection. 2. Turn off the data connection, mobil-net >> off 3. Start DJI Go4. In this case you can avoid the QR code fail to activate, or qr code joint to the RC or Spark. You can activate later in other pop-up window the drone. Enjoy...
Same issues here! Bought the combo pack. Turned on rc and drone. Solid green lights. Can't scan qr, tried to set up wifi, it shows spark but, says no Internet connection? Don't know what to do??
I had the same problem and no ones answer on here solved it. I have found a solution. You have to turn your phone's data connection off (disable mobile data), then it will connect to the spark! I agree, connecting to this little device is horrible and I really hope there is a solution like data cable connection.
ok, if your go app is showing as disconnected even if your phone shows it's connected to the spark wifi turn off your mobile data so you just have the wireless connection to the drone, it worked for me but during setup you have to keep turning mobile data off and on as required... it's total BS...
I had the same issue with the QR code - THIS IS HOW TO RESOLVE IT. 1. Turn on the DJI Spark 2. Turn on the Controller 3. Connect your wifi from your phone to the controller (username & password are on the back of the controller) 4. Open the app, and follow the prompts. Goodluck !
OMG....wasted three hours trying to get my phone o scan...it just doesn't do it. Then I'm realizing the mistake I made in purchasing this Spark drone when Im starting to read the comments.......Why do they make it so difficult ?? I will NEVER buy another DJI product again........
Hi Chuck, we are sorry to hear about the difficulties that you encountered. Please contact us via www.dji.com/support and provide more details about the issue, we'll do our best to help this out.
Salve i codici posti sul retro del rc dello Spark il WI-FI e la Password sono quasi spariti e con il QR non li legge più e li ho cancellati per sbaglio dal telefono come posso fare per sincronizzarli di nuovo telefono e RC...... Saluti.
every time I want to link my Spark to my phone I have to turn on the Spark then hold the power button for 9 sec or the 3 DDD as you call it. Then go to Wifi settings. Then put in the password then open the DJI GO 4 APP then scan the box then reset all my settings. There has to be an easier way to get this done.
I had the same problem and no ones answer on here solved it. I have found a solution. You have to turn your phone's data connection off (disable mobile data), then it will connect to the spark! I agree, connecting to this little device is horrible and I really hope there is a solution like data cable connection.
Ho spostato tutto quello che avevo del cell da memoria interna alla micro sd e mi diceva spostando il tutto perdevo dei dati lo fatto e nel app DJI GO 4 non c'è rimasto poco niente disistallarla e installarla di nuovo mi tocca rifare tutto da capo come la prima volta o perdo tutti i dati. Grazie! Saluti.
But my android phone is their sa wi-fi so a can fly in outside to my andriod only but the iphone no it will not fly out side if you are not in the no fly zone
Hi Kyle, may we double confirm if the drone will not take off if you are not in a No Fly Zone? Could you please tell us more details about this for further confirmation? You may send us the details via email support@dji.com, we are glad to help.
I have Phantom 4 and Inspire 1 from before. But to link spark was not easy. I have combo With Controller. This video you se here dont help if you have the Controller RC. I find out of It after some time. You moust Write password back on sender/Rc!!! Not from drone. When I do It I had conection. Now I will fly IT))))))
Rc is Controller. If you bay combo then you get Rc=Controller. When you bind Your mobile phone you bind It to RC not drone. I follow video and begin With drone but nothing happen. After some time I understand. Password behind Rc to mobile phone=Conection!! Then fly away. God Luck!
this thing drains my android phone, a full battery (which usually lasts more than a day of use) connected to the RC remote control lasts 10 mins before the phone battery runs out (doesn't even last as long as the 16 mins the drone battery lasts). not sure what its doing, I can sit on wifi at home for hours on it.
@DJITutorials it's cool worked it out for the phone thank but how do I activate the controller ones powered on please I'll watch more of your video thanks for your reply
it would be nice if this actually worked. QR codes don't work manual connection won't work. I bought a 20$ practice drone and it worked the minute I turned it on.
Jaime Jaramillo what i did is turn my remote on then scan wifi with ur pone a spark name should pop up click it and ur internet wifi will switch to ur data i guess then i turn the spark and it work...
Hi there, if you would love to connect the aircraft to the mobile device via WiFi directly (without RC), you may connect the aircraft to DJI Assistant 2 to the computer to acquire the password of the aircraft. If you would connect the RC with the mobie device and aircraft, please try to reset the RC password by long pressing the power button for about 9 seconds, the default password is 12341234. Hope this is informative for you.
So... Do i need to reset the device every time i want to connect and use the phone as the controller? And then again pair the remote controller every single time? Fucking hell that´s not acceptable? I can connect to both but not without the 9 second hold for mobile phone and not without re-pairing the RC controller afterwards... Please help!
This has been a painful experience to link / update the DJI Spart with Note 8... Something does not seem to work, the QR Scanning does not work, the Wifi seems to connect, but app not recognize it... What a nightmare. My Bepop 2 is so much easier to set up so far... and I have not even went on a single fly after 24 hours fighting this app
I am on my second drone now from DJI. My first was a Phantom 4 Pro. That stopped working following an update about 9 months ago. I literally tried everything, but the drone would not do anything at al following the update :( Even given this I still bought the DJI Spark 7 days ago. As yet ......... 7 days after purchasing it I am still to get it to connect to the Wi-Fi. It goes through the process, but then says the internet is not available. Undeterred I decided to scan the QR code........that wasnt recognised either. Basically I have had my drone 7 days and as yet it hasnt even fired up the props. VERY UNHAPPY with DJI, and their products, and equally unhappy with their customer service, who always make you feel its your fault, even though it isnt. This thread clearly demonstrates there are an awful lot of people out there that cannot get their drone to connect or work. DJI this is your fault and your problem - not ours.
Why is this so complex?
I just want to use my drone. It's ridiculously difficult to get going. QR codes don't scan. The app constantly crashes. And now the drone is locked! It says I need the latest firmware but i have installed the latest firmware. This seems like a fairly common problem so why doesn't DJI do something about it?!?! Plus the battery barely lasts 15 minutes. I really wish I went with another brand.
QR code won't scan, wifi keep falling off and remote won't connect to spark. DJI any help or advice would be grateful
Ik I’m late but how do I fix this problem
Nick Howland yeah same mine just keeps saying failed connection when I scan the qr
Unbelievably complex "simple" steps to connect to the phone. Wow, remarkable how complex they made something that should be a "one button" setup. #Fail
Bob Cozzi it's a fucking joke! Took 5 mins to set up my Karma!
That's why why I bought the Autel Evo... easy setup in seconds
Glad to hear I’m not the only one who felt this way.

I'm about to toss this POS, got two other drones never had a problem. Already lost 2 hours on this, packaging it up and bringing back to store now.
americanairgunhunter Im 2 hours in front of this drone with out any success
FOR EVERYONE WHO can’t connect their phone to the spark do this step by step directions
1. Fully turn on your drone
2.hold down the drones power button until you hear 2 beeps.
3. Turn off your drone
4. Turn it back on.
5. Connect to its WiFi (password and name is on spark and on its box.
Yep, I have posted this same advice.
thank You! After spending countless hours today, I followed your instructions and it worked!
works to connect to phone. But I can not for the life of me connect via remote
I can't get my phone to scan the QR... It says I need to connect the aircraft first...
Team RCAV same why??
Exactly wtf
Did you guys get it fixed?? It's the same with mine :( so frustrating!
Ya my spark Works because I had to connect to the remote's wifi (I have the combo) then I scan the spark then it would work since it's already paired with the drone itself
fuck dat just skip that part and youll be fine
QR code will not scan
I had the same troubles, all you need to do is hold the camera there for longer
never works on android
discovered today, by calling dji, if you have the fly more remote, you have to connect the the remote and not the spark. the wifi that shows up on your phone is to the remote not the drone. so, use the info on the back of the remote controller. you can bet i told DJI they might want to let customers know........
@Champion Wizard: Hold the camera to the QR code like forever?
Didn't work on Iphone either
Love this guys energy for the video tutorial.
Hi I'm Troy Mc Lure, and you may recongnise me from .............
I tried it more than 20 times but it doesnt work 😐
I also did but it didnt work!!!!
this is unbelievable - a seemingly brilliant product, but hopeless manual, ambiguous instructions, the smallest print possible, light gray text on white, the stupidity is mindboggling - support useless so far - I also have a Mavic Pro, but so far have been unable to get the spark to fly - they should get themselves a pro manual writer ...
sorry about the rant, just so frustrating...
Ditto, except I don't have a Mavic. This has been a severe pain in the ass, and still no end in sight.
Worked prefect the first time! Thanks!
Hi DJI Team - I just wondering if I change my spark Wi-Fi password to prevent somebody stealing my drone but in the video saying we could change it back to factory default password which is written on the spark body itself so what is the point changing the password? I just didn't get it or maybe there is a different way to protect it?
Keep at it! You’ll get it. Time consuming and a lot of back and forth on video. But got mine in the air within an hour.
Can I fly the drone in some place (jungle or himalaya mountain) where there is no wifi or mobile network connectivity ?? Pls reply. Thank you
Sorry to say, but DJI didn't learn how to program Android phones many year later after my first frustrations. What is wrong with you people....????
such clear and easy tutorial. Thanx Ty and thank you DJI
I want to get the spark without the remote since I'm broke but will it be almost the same if I'm using the phone for the drone???
I cant connect with QR, it keep telling me "QR code is not clear or scan failed, please connect the aircraft to activate" What the?
Same
Same D;
Same
@Tarlev: Some Chinese guy created the code that's why it doesn't work.
Same
Can you use the controller from a mavic to control the spark
SUPER IMPORTANT NOTE: If you have the Fly More combo, the controller and drone are already paired with each other, all that you will have to do is to connect to the controller's wifi (SSID and password on the bottom) then launch the DJI GO 4 app and get the drone activated and pass the FAA drone quiz.

Can we connect it to a windows 10 PC and fly it to record videos on a PC?
Problems:
I keep getting this message telling me it's going to change WLAN settings because I'm in the wrong country (it's an obscure place called the USA), and I should connect later. (Later is at least a week, apparently).

Maybe I'm just stupid. I'm sure some [censored] will let me know.
Solution: Forget customer service and screw with it until it works.
Do you need to connect every time you want to fligh or its just a one time thing,pls tell mw
You are going to fast. Explain yourself as there are reasons for what you are doing. Almost useless as most of what you said did not work. It would not scan for me etc.

So many issues I've spent hours TRYING to connect and only flown for 10 minutes. My karma drone is waaaaay easier. Now where's that receipt.
Which button on the RC is "Control"
It’s can fly with cell phones without controller?
So what app is best for DJI Spark
How long does it take to charge durning hibernation
yep still can't scan the QR code..fails everytime. So I seem to have set up the Remore Control QR code as my 'Spark' Internet setting ?! Should this be the drones Internet setting and not the controllers ? any answers welcome.

Only the part after activation. It's actually quite easy.

if you're having problem with the scanning stuff just go manually wifi name and password on the dji drone case.

If there is no luck, please reset RC's wifi: press and hold the remote controller’s power button for nine seconds. When the remote controller makes "DDD-DD" beeping sounds, the Wi-Fi is reset.
To activate the battery how long it’s gonna take
Hi. Help please. I've downloaded the app but I cant create an account. I have android. Is that a problem? Thanks
the wifi doesn't even come up
The Taco Thief same. Do you get it?
yeah i did a bunch of research and figured it out
Please advise what you figured out, because I am in the same boat!
I have big problem. I found a good deal on a used Spark. When i tried looking for the password on the drone's sticker, the pass and about a quarter of the QR code were erased. Since it's been a fairly old Spark and the part of the deal was a new case i didn't get the original box. Now i can't connect to the drone in order to update the firmware so i can connect it via the OTG cable. I can connect to the RC's WiFi, though so it at least works, but connecting via the cable would give me a much more stable image on my phone. Is there a workaround to this problem.
Ok....so what if you don't have the fly more combo?? Ummm I have a galaxy s7edge.....and it says cannot scan qr code....? What to do ....what to do????
I turn on my spark drone wifi but it not indicate huawei y9 phone .but it indicate iphone6 why?
So complicated
Couldn't agree more. And I like the "could build your own drone" by the time you setup Spark, exactly!
i thought this was sarcasm. but jesus christ if you seriously can't handle the instructions of the dji spark you definitely won't be building your own drone let alone flying a phantom 4. this is the most dummy proof drone there is. it even has sensors to stop you from bumping into things. maybe you're just an idiot.
I couldn´t agree more, very difficult the setting and besides this guys speaks tooo fast for a not english speaker!
i want to get that shirt, where can i get one?
BTW, the cable that comes with your Spark or Mavic that is supposed to connect to your controller doesn't work. You have to buy an after market OTG cable or call DJI for a replacement cable made in the USA. Supposedly, the new firmware for the Mavic eliminates the use of the OTG cable. Well, no! Your controller (or at least mine) won't bind with the drone unless I use an after market cable.
to help you guys out the one main problem i had was pairing the spark to the remote controller you hold the power button on spark for 3-4 seconds and once the red light starts blinking on the spark you turn on the controller and press the red pause button then the fn button and then the black bumber on the back (not at the same time in, a quick sequence in the order i stated. every video i watched made it seem like you had to press them at the same time (Hopefully i was alright at explaining it),
Mine stayed red all 4 lights on the drone. I’m so frustrated I can’t get it. Fly more combo. I couldn’t get any wifi it says no internet. So I held the button for 6 seconds now it stays red....??
Maybe an informative vdieo. However, why that disturbing loud background music?
Confusing, at least for me as old and non-native English!
What if you don't have a controller, how do you set it up with mobile
Activating not possible without qr code, if your mobile data connection is on. So:
1. Join your mobile to the RC with hand >> in wifi connection.
2. Turn off the data connection, mobil-net >> off
3. Start DJI Go4.
In this case you can avoid the QR code fail to activate, or qr code joint to the RC or Spark. You can activate later in other pop-up window the drone.
Enjoy...
Same issues here! Bought the combo pack. Turned on rc and drone. Solid green lights. Can't scan qr, tried to set up wifi, it shows spark but, says no Internet connection? Don't know what to do??
I had the same problem and no ones answer on here solved it. I have found a solution. You have to turn your phone's data connection off (disable mobile data), then it will connect to the spark! I agree, connecting to this little device is horrible and I really hope there is a solution like data cable connection.

ok, if your go app is showing as disconnected even if your phone shows it's connected to the spark wifi turn off your mobile data so you just have the wireless connection to the drone, it worked for me but during setup you have to keep turning mobile data off and on as required... it's total BS...
I have the combo to but when I come to connect my remote control to my phone it doesn't show up
It's not scanning
I had the same issue with the QR code - THIS IS HOW TO RESOLVE IT.
1. Turn on the DJI Spark
2. Turn on the Controller
3. Connect your wifi from your phone to the controller (username & password are on the back of the controller)
4. Open the app, and follow the prompts.
Goodluck !
this won't work on my phone i got s5 can u help i download the dji go4 app and the app won't work??
Try to fly the dji spark to your iphone ang it will say ni wi-fi connection it will not fly if you are not in the no fly zone
please help me how to fix my drone because is always red ligth

OMG....wasted three hours trying to get my phone o scan...it just doesn't do it. Then I'm realizing the mistake I made in purchasing this Spark drone when Im starting to read the comments.......Why do they make it so difficult ?? I will NEVER buy another DJI product again........
Hi Chuck, we are sorry to hear about the difficulties that you encountered. Please contact us via www.dji.com/support and provide more details about the issue, we'll do our best to help this out.
scanning QR code does not work on moto x play android 7.1.1
just got the drone today, QR code is not working and can't find the spark wifi!
Did you figure it out or return it? I just received my spark and I am ready to return. I can't figure out the set up, so far 5 hours at it.
Can't find spark on my wifi???
KenjiSam16 me too
Same here!
Salve i codici posti sul retro del rc dello Spark il WI-FI e la Password sono quasi spariti e con il QR non li legge più e li ho cancellati per sbaglio dal telefono come posso fare per sincronizzarli di nuovo telefono e RC......
Saluti.
Never work is my first drone is so hard to get this connected. I feel like I want to pay 100 to someone to get this working😩
Meu spark não aparece na lista do wi-fi, não conecta no meu fone j5 Samsung
every time I want to link my Spark to my phone I have to turn on the Spark then hold the power button for 9 sec or the 3 DDD as you call it. Then go to Wifi settings. Then put in the password then open the DJI GO 4 APP then scan the box then reset all my settings. There has to be an easier way to get this done.
I had the same problem and no ones answer on here solved it. I have found a solution. You have to turn your phone's data connection off (disable mobile data), then it will connect to the spark! I agree, connecting to this little device is horrible and I really hope there is a solution like data cable connection.
Ho spostato tutto quello che avevo del cell da memoria interna alla micro sd e mi diceva spostando il tutto perdevo dei dati lo fatto e nel app DJI GO 4 non c'è rimasto poco niente disistallarla e installarla di nuovo mi tocca rifare tutto da capo come la prima volta o perdo tutti i dati. Grazie!
Saluti.
This set up made me want to get my money back.
Hi, any help needed, please feel free to contact us for assistance www.dji.com/support
But my android phone is their sa wi-fi so a can fly in outside to my andriod only but the iphone no it will not fly out side if you are not in the no fly zone
Hi Kyle, may we double confirm if the drone will not take off if you are not in a No Fly Zone? Could you please tell us more details about this for further confirmation? You may send us the details via email support@dji.com, we are glad to help.
I have Phantom 4 and Inspire 1 from before. But to link spark was not easy. I have combo With Controller. This video you se here dont help if you have the Controller RC. I find out of It after some time. You moust Write password back on sender/Rc!!! Not from drone. When I do It I had conection. Now I will fly IT))))))
Rc is Controller. If you bay combo then you get Rc=Controller. When you bind Your mobile phone you bind It to RC not drone. I follow video and begin With drone but nothing happen. After some time I understand. Password behind Rc to mobile phone=Conection!! Then fly away. God Luck!
this thing drains my android phone, a full battery (which usually lasts more than a day of use) connected to the RC remote control lasts 10 mins before the phone battery runs out (doesn't even last as long as the 16 mins the drone battery lasts). not sure what its doing, I can sit on wifi at home for hours on it.
Spatk doesn't show in the app iv just bought a second hand one please help I have android Samsung s20
Hello, there. Could you see the Wi-Fi of the aircraft in the Phone settings- WLAN?
@DJITutorials it's cool worked it out for the phone thank but how do I activate the controller ones powered on please I'll watch more of your video thanks for your reply
This drone looks so cute, shame I bought the Mavic a few months a ago.
JustOneForAll its good like maybe 2000 dollars and buy and inspire and spark
You bought the better drone, and made a better choice.
Ahh thanks mate, I do love it. Just wish had more time to fly and less work to do ....
yeah fuck this little bag of junk it sucks
Fucking bs! No where as easy as this guy makes it out to be!
it would be nice if this actually worked. QR codes don't work manual connection won't work. I bought a 20$ practice drone and it worked the minute I turned it on.
my code and password is erased now how can i connect it
Hi Fura, you may check the Spark's wifi and password in the battery compartment.
having problems scanning the qr code with my galaxyS8? HELP?
im having the same issue...
now it's saying I have no internet.. I'm using my phones data.
My HTC-10 can't scan them either.
Jaime Jaramillo what i did is turn my remote on then scan wifi with ur pone a spark name should pop up click it and ur internet wifi will switch to ur data i guess then i turn the spark and it work...
I had the same troubles, all you need to do is hold it there for longer
I lost my box and QR code is damaged so please tell me the solution
Hi there, if you would love to connect the aircraft to the mobile device via WiFi directly (without RC), you may connect the aircraft to DJI Assistant 2 to the computer to acquire the password of the aircraft.
If you would connect the RC with the mobie device and aircraft, please try to reset the RC password by long pressing the power button for about 9 seconds, the default password is 12341234. Hope this is informative for you.
So... Do i need to reset the device every time i want to connect and use the phone as the controller? And then again pair the remote controller every single time? Fucking hell that´s not acceptable? I can connect to both but not without the 9 second hold for mobile phone and not without re-pairing the RC controller afterwards... Please help!
This has been a painful experience to link / update the DJI Spart with Note 8... Something does not seem to work, the QR Scanning does not work, the Wifi seems to connect, but app not recognize it... What a nightmare. My Bepop 2 is so much easier to set up so far... and I have not even went on a single fly after 24 hours fighting this app
Why not dji go 4 on iPhone 5
I am on my second drone now from DJI. My first was a Phantom 4 Pro. That stopped working following an update about 9 months ago. I literally tried everything, but the drone would not do anything at al following the update :(
Even given this I still bought the DJI Spark 7 days ago. As yet ......... 7 days after purchasing it I am still to get it to connect to the Wi-Fi. It goes through the process, but then says the internet is not available. Undeterred I decided to scan the QR code........that wasnt recognised either.
Basically I have had my drone 7 days and as yet it hasnt even fired up the props. VERY UNHAPPY with DJI, and their products, and equally unhappy with their customer service, who always make you feel its your fault, even though it isnt. This thread clearly demonstrates there are an awful lot of people out there that cannot get their drone to connect or work. DJI this is your fault and your problem - not ours.
READ THIS IF YOU ARE HAVING TROUBLE!
If your spark says it needs to connect, find the drones wifi and use the password on the box to connect!
Turn it on by pressing the button on the back once and then holding.
The setup takes so long that your battery runs down making it utterly useless on the first day. Way too complex.
Linkin park? Sorry I had to
