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.
Can frequency bands be manually adjusted during video transmission?

Yes. Users can manually choose between 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz or let DJI GO 4 choose a frequency band automatically.
Where can I check the aircraft Wi-Fi’s username and password?

There are three places where you can check this information: a. The battery compartment on the aircraft (only the default Wi-Fi username and password can be found here);
b. The Settings option in DJI Assistant 2 or DJI GO 4;
c. The foam outer box (only the default Wi-Fi username and password can be found here).
How do I reset or modify Spark’s Wi-Fi username and password?

To reset, hold the power button 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.)?
My mobile device does not detect Spark’s Wi-Fi when I turn it on. What should I do?

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
How do I charge Spark?

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.
My newly purchased battery is not responding when I press the power button. What should I do?

New batteries are shipped in Hibernation Mode. In order to activate your newly purchased battery, charge it fully.
How long does it take to fully charge a battery?

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.
How often should I fully charge my Spark batteries?

It is recommended to fully charge Spark batteries at least once every three months.
When does a battery enter Hibernation Mode?

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.
What functions can the power button perform?

a. 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.
b. Checking the current battery level: Press the power button once to check the current battery level.
c. 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.
d. 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.

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.
What can I do with the two USB ports on the Charging Hub?

You can charge two mobile devices or your Spark.
Updating Firmware
Can I use other apps while DJI GO 4 is updating?

No. If you do, the update will fail. You will then need to download the firmware and update again.
Why does DJI GO 4 remind me to reconnect to Spark’s Wi-Fi right before it restarts to complete the update?

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.
Can I disconnect from the internet once the firmware is downloaded successfully?

Yes.
If the aircraft or the remote controller battery levels drop below 50% during an update, will the update fail?

No, but it is recommended that both have a high level of battery charge during the update.
What should I do if the aircraft and battery firmware versions are inconsistent?

Connect Spark to DJI GO 4, and the app will inform you of appropriate updates to ensure consistency.
What should I do if the update is really slow?

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.
What factors could lead to an update failure?

a. Low battery level. Make sure the battery level is higher than 50%.
b. Powering off Spark or the remote controller during the update. If this happens, please restart Spark/remote controller and begin the update again.
c. Internet disconnection when downloading firmware.
d.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.
