DJI - Spark Fly More Combo Quadcopter - Red

I had been waiting on a quality drone, that didn't cost and arm and a leg, that also had some decent flight time. The Spark meets all those criteria and more. While I would love to have the Mavic Pro, I just couldn't justify the price for what I wanted to use it for, mainly some quick flight jaunts to maybe get some interesting footage or shots while out and about. The Spark is insanely easy to set up and just as easy to fly. Though, to be fair, the hand gesture thing is a bit more of a gimmick than an actual flight model. It works well for taking selfies and wowing people but for maximum flight ability you of course need to use the remote. After downloading the app onto my iPhone 7+, I updated the firmware, and was flying within minutes. That being said, I would HIGHLY recommend buying an OTG (On The Go) cable and hardwiring it to your controller rather than just relying on the wi-fi set-up. Since I have done that, there has not been a single dropped frame or any control issues. You can find one online or in stores for less than $4 usually and you already have the cable for your phone, though I also bought a short Lightning cable to keep things from tangling up. Video and photo quality is stellar and it is incredibly easy to set up some neat shots. It also has a ton of safety features to keep you from doing something stupid with it and harming you, a loved one, or the drone. My only quibble with it so far is that I guess I'm within the flight path of the local airfield and it limits some of my maneuvering window, but that is easily solved by taking it elsewhere to fly. This drone is heavy enough to warrant FAA registration but that was done in 5 minutes and only cost $5. If you aren't planning on doing serious photo/videography with your drone and don't need super long flight times to get where you want to shoot, this is the drone for you. A lot of fun and really easy to use.

Definitely get the Fly More package. Without it, I’d be driven mad! The battery life is decent at 12-15 minutes but I enjoy continuing to zip around (max speed ~30 mph) once I have my recordings done. Controls were easy to pick up, you can set a beginner’s mode to restrict how for and how high your drone can go until you turn the mode off. You can fly this drone with just your phone but having the control makes everything much easier/more smooth. Once I figured out how to set it up to my phone (YouTube/Google was my friend during this part) I was up in no time. The carrying bag is also very handy, holds both batteries, the drone, and it’s cobtroller.

I am a new to drones and finally decided on this. It can be a little quirky to get started, but following the instructions will have you flying in no time. I have had a few flights already and, besides pilot errors, it has gone amazingly well. 3”Easy to get started and i was concerned about the flight time- turn out it is enough as I am learning to fly- i can easily land, switch batteries, then fly some more. it is durable too- having survived one bad crash

I had a good experience buying online it was so easy and the shipping was super fasand free the two items i bought it’s so so amazing no regrets.. thank you Best Buy

This drone is good if you’re just using it for fun. If you are a videographer or filmmaker, go with the Mavic Air. The spark did not match my dslr camera quality. The 4K video is needed from the Mavic Air.

I initially bought a DJI phantom 3 which was phenominal. But I found it tobe very big and bulky and replaced it with dji spark. Having already used it for 8 months at various locations I feel good about my decision. I just wish the battery could have charged faster and it had 4k reaolution. Everything else is perfect for people like me who are amature photographer and occasional traveler. Make sure you buy the fly more combo. During thanksgiving the fly more combo sells at around 460$.

Its a good drone for the price and starters. Easy to use. Good camera. Love the photos and videos I captured. They are built tough. Connection isnt the best sometimes so be careful where you fly it. Im a travel vlogger and I was able to use it around the world. I have been able to get some awesome footage. You can see some on my channel. Youtube.com/joeyamor I recommend this drone for starters. I loved it. Have fun. Cheers!

This is not a ordinary Toy it is a cool Drone to fly. It is really easy to fly and learn some drone flying experience before to get hands on expensive drones. I loved flying my drones still learning hand gesture. I loved sport mode very responsive to remote controller and had a-lot of fun. Please check the surrounding before turning sport mode because its front detection collision is turnoff. Camera quality they mention it HD. so didn't expect more.
