[QUOTE="Nathan Williams, post: 33189, member: 5559"] The Air is better but depending on what you will do with the drone it could be overkill. Sounds like this will be his first drone. Will he need or can he edit 4K footage? Any need or desire to use footage or pics for professional purposes? Is he technically inclined or a bit intimidated by tech? I'm a pure hobbyist who uses the drone for family outings, vacations, casual events - nothing professional. Extended range and flight time are not a concern and I have no problem changing out a battery or two. I don't have a computer that can edit 4K footage. So, the Spark fulfills everything I need a drone to do and it is very portable. The Mavic Air is a rather expensive starter drone. Might make more sense to buy him a Spark and "if" he enjoys it and sees the need to upgrade (better camera, longer flight time, longer range, etc) he can upgrade to whatever fulfills his needs.
