[QUOTE="Mark M, post: 92505, member: 10747"] I just bought a used Mavic Pro Flymore setup Saturday morning. Pro and Cons: Longer air time. Mavic Range is a let down though, DJI claims 4.3 miles. I fly in optimum conditions and can regularly hit 7500ft with my Spark and threekings. The Mavic gets to 11000 or 12000ft then loses signal on the same open rural corn field flying conditions. The Mavic's Occusync uses the upper band of 2.4ghz. I suspect because of this, it is more prone to interference than the Spark which uses the less populated 5.8ghz. The Mavic's 3 axis gimble keeps the video buttery smooth and the enhanced video/photography settings are impressive. But you'll need a huge SD card if recording in 4k. For me, I'm using 1080p, so it is a tie with the Spark. Top Speed. the Mavic can hit 41mph, but not for long, Sport mode really kills the battery fast. Seems optimum efficient speed is ~30mph. So if I am flying at 30mph, that is what the Spark does in Sport. So it is a tie. Package - The Mavic is big. Especially if you are accustomed to the small Spark. Landing it on my patio table takes a bit more finesse than lil ol Sparky. Impressions - the Mavic is packed with features and capabilities.....But the Spark with its small stature and nimbleness tugs at my heart. I'm headed away to the mountains this weekend....I'll be taking the Spark. Too early to say for sure, but the Mavic may be a summer toy then list it for sale in the fall. The Spark is a keeper.
