I had a Mavic pro earlier and I do lots of traveling. Even though Mavic pro is smaller it was a hassle to carry it around and take pictures while traveling. But this little thing makes it much easier. Doesn't have lots of features, but works great.

Drones may be getting smaller and more affordable than ever, but few have yet to be a hit with the honest-to-goodness mainstream audience. The DJI Spark hopes to be the first to make its mark with a blend of compactness, automated features and an affordable price point.

Controller-free gesture controls; Absolutely tiny; Automatic Quickshot modes

Spotty Wi-Fi connection with smartphones; Short flight time; Easily swayed by the wind

Drones are still considered by many a rather niche and specialist piece of technology. The thought of flying an expensive gadget that, it can often seem, is only used to create fancy shots for TV shows and movies. With its Spark, DJI is "democratising the market and simplifying complex technology".

Small; lightweight build; Intelligent flight modes; Easy to fly; Good image quality

Expensive in the UK; Gesture mode is a little unreliable; Battery life is short and extras are pricey

Full 1080p camera. Much easier to carry than the phantoms and just as intelligent. Can land it in palm of my hand :-D..... I really wanted the Mavic Pro but could afford it so went with this and I'm not unhappy I did. Well worth it. Spot on!!

Well what a surprise once you are through the registration phase it's a breeze, if you are not sure of your skill level put it into beginners mode. This mode helps understand the handling of the drone and its potential at a sedate pace.

This increases the drones flight range and allows you to fly a lot more accurate. This is a must have for the dji spark

The quality speaks for itself. DJI are clearly the leaders with the time and attention to detail that they put into their Drones. The materials and technology used are robust and made to do the job that it is intended for.

a way too expensive toy, within 2 weeks you'll be wanting a better model by other makers for less money

I originally had the phantom 4 drone, but I wanted something more portable but still had a good camera and intelligent flight modes. So I brought the spark. Even though it is only as big as my phone I can say that it is much better than my phantom 4.

This is an extremely easy drone to fly. It has a range of features for you to learn that enable you to get the most out of what this drone can do.
