Nice quick professionally crafted video. I appreciate that you didn't try to turn this into a 10 minute diatribe.

Doesn't the MA2 fly more combo come with a case and filter pack? It seemed like the 2 batteries alone cost more than the combo pack that also included filters and a decent looking but not hard-spark-like case.

I think technically this is the replacement (note, not upgrade to Spark) also I think it's 249g meaning it can fly in those freedom loving countries. This maybe why DJI moved away from Spark at all. I think if your talking about upgrades MA2 is really the way to go.. at least you tube has me...

Thanks, Spark 317, lots of interesting revelations there, I'll have to check out tripod mode.

One thing I never really understood until I started flying is how the range of the gimble is from straight down to horizon view. I'm not sure that would be called 90 degrees, but let's say so for a moment. There has already been several times that I wished I could go higher than horizon view, so...

Basically as stated in the title, spark won't connect to controller. I turn on the spark, turn on the controller and it doesn't automatically pair. Used the 3-button custom keys to reset and it blinks green indefinitely until I stop it. Tried turning both off, tried turning each off one by one...

It says you age right under your name. You can turn off that feature if you want in your account profile.

I bought the last spark at the camera shop almost a year ago. (I think) It leaves me wondering what would be a viable alternative. It seems the mavric mini isn't that good and the pros are big and in another price bracket. Is dji getting ready to offer something new at this level?

I haven't had my drone long but recently I put my battery in one day and thought it was ready to go, I was holding the drone and the battery started to fall out. I learned real fast that once you put the battery in to give it a tug to make sure it's locked.

What are some easy ways to share pics and videos online that are not too inconvenient as a poster or watcher?

It's roughly what rotorwash described about 3m/s maybe 2m/s with just the manual control. That feels like ages when you are 120 meters up though and only have 15 minutes of flight time.

I have been flying daily in 36C, was a little worried but yeah it seems within range.

would love to see some footage of this, especially if it involves any sand dunes.

This might be useful sometimes, even if I don't really want to land I could just take off again I definitely don't know what I'm doing. Thanks. ?

Basically all these apps and all these companies and all these governments collect data for fun and profit. There should be nothing unexpected in this interview.
