    4k?

    Not unless the next spark adopts a 360 degree EIS camera that crops/overcaptures/freecaptures into 1080p. It wont need a gimbal anymore. This means less weight, less cost. Check this stabilisation out... On a dog.. On a plane/drone On a mountain bike (honestly - this looks more stable than...

    No 2x Zoom, Correct?

    Spark is already 'zooming'. Switch between photo mode and video modes and you will see the sparks limitations.

    Calling all Mavic and Spark users - real world differences?

    I have both - Mavic Flymore and Spark only (povo-pack no controller). Mavic is for more serious speed and distance. Spark is for upclose and personal. Spark without controller has a few advantages over the Mavic. - Small tiny case that weighs as much as a coke can with an extra battery. -...

    Cache

    Cache is the video stream. It gets recorded in 720p onto your smartphone/device. The cached video is very compressed and grainy. The video you want to use to edit/upload is the one in the spark/aircraft.

    low-noise propellers for the spark?

    1 minute gain on a full battery when hovering with the 8331 props on the Mavic. As per DJI, 3 minute gain on the MPP with 8331 props. So the extra air time is from the ESC's. So i don't mind the existing props with the noise. I hope they introduce more efficient motors with the spark and shed...

    Saving Spark Settings

    Connect to spark and leave it remaining on. Make changes on the Go app and then exit the GO app without turning off the spark. Start Go app again and see if the settings have applied.

    Is this repairable!?

    Friend sent his in with a broken gimbal (exactly like the pic) and a few broken props. All 4 arms were intact though. He did NOT have DJI refresh. DJI Service Centre Melbourne Aus, swapped it for a refurb for $220 AUD which inc new props. Mind you, Australia prices are different. $850 for fly...

    Spark vs the fastest creature on earth

    FYI.. The Japs named their Suzuki bike after the Peregrine. They called it the Hayabusa because it could crack the 300kph barrier. I think being small means the spark is prone to bird attacks. I think the ones to watch out for are seagulls as they attack over water and highly territorial. There...

    Compass error forces ATTI mode, even though I had 12-16 satellites

    @noooris Did you do a compass dance before flight next to your car or near metal structures?
