[QUOTE="Brojon, post: 57442, member: 11898"] I have a Phantom 4 Pro and a Mavic Pro but honestly it's a PITA packing even the Mavic around and setting up when scouting a location. The hand launch feature of the Spark is pretty attractive - no, make that *very* attractive. If only it folded... Anyway - looking for something to use as a scouting drone that I won't be out a lot of money if something happens. I can envision hand carrying the Spark remote and have the Spark hang off a belt loop or something with a spare battery in my pocket - ready for near instant deployment with minimum muss or fuss. I crashed my Mavic once because it lost GPS and went stoopid on me into a bridge abutment. My understanding is the Spark is a little better behaved when GPS signal is lost - at least that's my take with what I've read. The reason I'm looking at the Spark and not the Tello is GPS and ability to fly waypoint missions. 1080p isn't a big deal to me since this is intended to be a "scouting" drone - if I like what I see then I can go back with the big boys. So given my reasons for wanting one, what say y'all? Anything to add to my observations? [/QUOTE]
