I was tempted to wait as well, but my gamble is that the Mavic 2 will be bigger than the Air and mostly likely around the size of the existing Mavic Pro. That's too big folded for my needs and especially so when flying (i.e. tight spaces and drawing attention). If I could afford or justify...

I know the feeling. My Air is on the way and my Spark is on eBay. Spark is a great little drone but the Air really is the best of all worlds with the portability, extra camera quality and - most importantly for me - the 3-axis gimbal. If the Spark was 3-axis I'd have probably resisted the...

I can't afford to drop £600+ either, but I'm probably still going to :D I shot this video on my Spark today while out for a walk and I'm fairly pleased with the result. However, due to the fairly strong breeze, some of the footage was unsuitable because of the 2-axis gimbal and you can see the...

I'm in the "love my Spark but not I'm gutted club too". When I got it a month ago the Spark was something of a compromise. I knew the 2-axis gimbal, short range (UK) and limited video quality would bother me somewhat but I was willing to compromise because it was so small, unobtrusive and...

Yeah, I'm amazed how many Mavic Pro owners are putting down the Air as if though it was a proposed upgrade or replacement for their done. If you already own an Mavic Pro/Platinum you'd have to hate money or be obsessed with drones to justify swapping it for an Air. However, if you didn't own a...

Haha, I've been into this for all of 5 minutes and already hate the way it seems to work. I got my Spark a month ago and already have it up for sale because the Mavic Air is basically the drone I hoped the Spark would be.

I disagree, it takes literally seconds to unfold the legs and it can be controlled with just an iphone or just your hand exactly the same as the spark. While not officially designed for palm take off or landing, it looks like it would be super easy to do anyway. I'd have no issue hand...

So, theoretically, that's 4x the range of the Spark on the CE standard. I wonder how they achieved that?

I note the Air has wi-fi connection. Does anyone with knowledge of such things think it will be able to fly further than the Spark in Europe on the CE standard or will the system be exactly the same as Spark?

The problem with the DJI range is the Phantom's form factor. The Mavic Pro cut into its sales because the Phantom is bulky and looks crap. I don't care if it was the most feature packed drone and could fly to space and back, I'd still not buy it. They need to ditch the Phantom and make a...

If I didn't already have a spark I'd probably buy it but it's not worth taking a depreciation hit to punt the spark and get the air. The only thing it has that I REALLY wanted on the spark is the 3-axis gimbal. Everything else is nice but not really required in a drone of this size/form...

That wedding video is an interesting one. Surely everybody standing looking at that drone prior to the pull back knows what's going on, consents to the flying of the drone and is thereby 'under the control of the operator'? I'm not sure what the grounds for the fine are (granted, I don't know...

I'm hoping for a Mavic II with 1" Sensor, better gimbal and other general upgrades and improvements. I personally don't think the gap between the spark and Mavic needs bridged, but I do think the Mavic needs improved. I rule the Phantom out completely because I hate it's form factor and size...

The whole thing is a farce if you ask me. I'd be willing to bet most people crash their drone when trying to watch it as opposed to watching the screen. When you watch the screen you are always in first person mode and, unless you are an idiot, you are going to fly forward as opposed to...
