[QUOTE="griffinhart, post: 31295, member: 6861"] I own 2, soon to be 3 drones. My first was the Phantom 3 Advanced. I picked up the Spark in the Fall. My Phantom has longer battery life, is faster and has a better camera. It lacks the forward sensors that the spark has, but that really hasn't been a major factor for me. That said, since I got the Spark, I mostly fly the Spark. Why? The size. It's small enough that I am far more likely to grab it on the way out than I am my Phantom. This is the reason I ordered the Mavic Air. I have been considering the Mavic Pro for a few months now, but haven't wanted to spend the money. The Mavic Pro Fly More Combo has been running $1200 ish. Lucky for me, a friend has agreed to buy my Spark for a fair price, and I am picking up the Air as a replacement. I will have most of the benefits of the Mavic Pro, plus several improvements and all the benefits of the Spark. If you have only owned a Spark, which is a fantastic little drone IMHO, You can't imagine how much easier it is to deal with. More often than not, I look at my Phantom's case on the way out and think.... Nah, I don't want to deal with that. On the other hand, I think nothing of just grabbing the spark when heading out.
