What is your favourite drone to fly? And why does it work for you? Would love to know!
Y man... mine is phantom 4 pro plus...
Its crazy ass.. works like butter for me
Peter McKinnon I can't afford a drone yet. So I throw my smartphone attached to a selfie stick for some cool footage :-P
The phantom 3 standard, it's not too expensive, so not to much worries about crashing it! The camera quality is good enough for RUclips, so the best drone for me!
I have a Phantom 4 :) DJI is leading the push in more main stream type drone tech is what i think... i was tempted to buy one of these sparks but i am re thinking now that i have watched your review. Thanks. i guess they created it to try to appeal to the world as it is now more self absorbed and media based hence the "selfie" novelty drone type feel i get from this one. and of course without riveling its own product so they made this one not only cheaper in price but also quality ( not parts quality but features such as Mavic 4k... spark 1080... Mavis 3 axis... Spark 2 axis )
The Mavic, image quality for photos could be a bit better, but not having to lug around a big phantom an a nature hike and still be able take shots from a different angle with "my sky tripod" makes up for that, as it easily fits next to my camera in the backpack.
Who else loves Peter's videos, but feels like he didn't give the spark a full chance. He only flew the spark once (on one battery) Also, there is a dedicated controller for it that expands the range up to 2000m, and allows the spark to go into sport mode. No one was a master with the phantom 4 pro after flying it for 10-16 minutes. Anyway, hoping the next review has a bit more depth to it and time spent on it. Peace
+Connor Eckdahl flew it more than once. And being around cameras as much as I am, you know pretty fast what you like and what you don't like.
Try it again with the controller before you completely write it off :)
Agreed. You need the controller for it to be useable. Without it, it's just a struggle.
It really is damn near unusable without the controller.. I can't get the gesture controls to work nearly as well as many of the earlier reviewers were able to... might be the beard? ;) lol
Anyway, I've found that as long as I'm not near a wifi router, the connection to the controller is rock solid, and I'm going to pick up an OTG micro USB / USB A adapter so I can plug my phone directly into the controller and disable the wifi connection all together. I've heard that ups the reliability and the operational distance even more.
Connor Eckdahl agreed
read the manual!!! I just got mine a few days ago and have had none of the problems everyone else has been having because I actually took the time to learn how the software works and what gestures the camera is trying to pick up on. It's such an easy drone to fly!
Just like how I've never had my phantom have a "fly away" because I've always flown it in proper conditions with strong GPS signal
it pays to read the manual
Thisismyart Maybe you could make a video for THE REST OF US! About you experiences.
** ashie ** mavic is water resistant. Spark is not
I was looking for the best price and I found it for 445.99 USD with coupon code: SPKGB

James Dobbs noo
James Dobbs DJI is having a really good deal for the DJI Spark right now: sites.google.com/site/djisparkorder/
Idk why youtubers think 4K is so amazing, it is but honesty most of the people, watch RUclips on there cell phones or tablets. 4K is not worth it unless you have a device that can handle 4K
100% agree with you!
He didn't understand the limitations and specs in advance. Didn't use the controller. Didn't read the instructions. Didn't turn off 'Beginner Mode' or 'Enable Backwards Flight'. Only flew a single battery (13 minutes average) before submitting a final opinion. Really inaccurate and misleading video. The Spark is great -- if you take the time to understand how it works.
+1 - Used for what it was intended it is fantastic.
Do you have the Spark and what is your thoughts on it's price & abilities compared to the more expensive drones???
I love peter's video's but you're right, this video does not do it justice, i just bought the spark fly more package with the controller and extra battery and have been able to get some very nice footage and flexible navigation and the controller provide some brisk movement.
I haven't really flown drones before I got the Spark, it might not be the drone to use if you want really good quality, but it's a really good drone for beginners and people trying to learn how to fly.
Ddt like it at all, picture cuality is no good. Videos also not tht perfect. Still too expensive. I dnt recommend buy it. Ill be returning mine.
Testing the spark without the controller is pointless. I bought the spark and would recommend everyone to buy the extra controller to get the full experience.
Do you have other drone experience & would you buy the spark again? I do outdoor recreation videos including climbing, hiking, backpacking. As result I have been looking at the DJI spark due to it's small compact size which would allow it to fit inside of my hiking pack.
It’s just one persons opinion on the Spark. I chose the Spark as my 1st drone. I’m still learning 👍
LOL! This isn't made for people like YOU -- it's made for people like ME, to introduce us to the DJI Drone brand. It's really for beginners. Also, you're the first person I saw that only got the drone and not the remote package, so I am grateful for that because it appears the remote package is the way to go. The Mavic pro is twice the cost and there is a learning curve, so this is the best option for beginners. It's like buying a Canon 5d Mark IV for vlogging... not necessary when a T7i is good enough. Thanks for the funny review! :-)
You have to activate the "fly backward" mode in the app for it to fly back in gesture mode
+Leon Truong didn't know that!! Great tip
Peter McKinnon on a scale of 1-10 how would you rate dji Spark
I normally love your content but this came off pretentious. You feel silly flying $500 drone?! I'm sure many people can't even afford that and would be grateful to have it. It's an into drone man. People watch you to learn, that's your demographic right? You acted like you were too good for it.
No shit Sherlock...
I don't have anything to say, just that silly phrase... cheers 👍
Haha 👍🏻
No hate. Still love you channel and you're a huge inspiration of mine.
He was giving an honest review of it after testing it. Like you said, people watch him to learn. Would people tune into learn from him if instead of honest reviews, no matter how brutal, he just praised every piece of gear he used? I actually thought the last half were he sat down back in his house and gave a talk about his experience with it was helpful.
I think it was a fair comment, plus it was about the size not the price! He was just saying it doesn't look as bad ass as the phantom 4 which is fair.
as a student who just started filmmaking and has a low budget, this is great for me! the price and video quality is perfect for what I need. I think from the point of view of someone who is used to professional quality , yeah it doesnt do that much but in the end quality matters less then someones creativity so I feel like for the price it allows me to get new shots for what I need and I love iti.
How is it so far? Assuming you got it. I plan to get mine on black friday xD
@@Disheartened6 it's great! set up is tiny it confusing but once u connect it to ur phone once its connects super fast every time! it also is very easy to fly and the video quality isn't super professional, but for what it's worth it's great!
@@aspenricca Yeah! I've seen tutorials on how to upscale the spark footage if you wanted or tweak it so I don't think it would be that bad right ? xp
Disheartened6 there are also tutorials on frame predicting so u can have slower footage that looks like 60 fps!
@@aspenricca I didn't know that! Wow
I'm definitely gonna get one of these. Mainly because the price point is sooo good. If your working part time and have bills to pay it's hard to afford the phantom
Did you buy it? Thoughts on it?
@@kodaexploring5176 didn't buy it. Still have other things I should buy first like a gimbal
i love my spark!!!!!! sooo smalll,but a beast. love how stable it is,and the footage kicks ass! cool vid
Dude your low key trippin, Ive been using the Spark and the gesture controlls, it works great. Get off that high horse.
I have dji spark this is not a drone this is shit.. quality is so bad..
I know you and Casey both imagine people appreciate your slamming around equipment, but for me and I am certain many others, your abuse of equipment is one of the things I dislike most about RUclipsrs like yourself and Casey. It's just so unnecessary and most don't think it adds any Kewl Credits at all. It's pompous, callous and obnoxious. It's just not necessary!
In fact, you wore me out and I didn't even finish watching this video.

THEY R "BIG NOTERS"
Every time he slam the drone I think how much I take care of mine, it feels weird to see that kind of things :/
True
With my budget and my needs, it's perfect. Cute, and just enough for someone who doesn't do real filmmaking, and who just wants to show off to friends who know even less than I do!
Usually love your videos and I've been watching since day one, but I feel that you were really hard on the drone. I'm currently saving up money to buy one and if I could buy a mavic I would, but I won't be able to save up that much. I would love to start film making because it really is a form of art and a way to express yourself and I'll have to settle for a spark. The spark lets me think of an iPhone camera, and people can really take amazing shots with an iPhone.I think the spark opens up new opportunities for filmmakers to challenge themselves and seeing what they can do with a spark.
+Di - Lion I don't think I was hard on it at all- it's a personal opinion from my experience with it. It doesn't work for my needs- that's not to say it won't be perfect for you though! Have fun with it and thank you for watching!!
Peter McKinnon , Thanks for your response! I still love your videos and keep up the awesome work !!!
The spark is fantastic as long as you get a controller and batteries! It’s really good, he’s more criticizing the palm stuff, which is reasonable
You're trying too hard with your comment.
I love the size of the Spark, and is inciting for a travel vlogger, but I just don't think it has the versatility needed to get the epic shots I like to snag.
That's what I'm thinking but any bigger drones you can't slip in your backpack. So difficult.
I use the Mavic Pro. It takes up the same space in a backpack as the spark and way better IMO.
It looks so much larger though?
it's really not. Check out a comparison video. They literally take up the same amount of space. The difference being that the Mavic's arms fold up and out of the way to fit a smaller form factor, whereas the spark's arms are stationary.
I just bought this as my 2nd drone, I'm still a beginner and I'm loving this. It's very fun and easy to use and it can do cinematic footage and it's very small which can fit into my backpack
Thanks again Peter
It looks like you were stuck in beginner mode the whole time, that little drone has some awesome features you didnt get into with the video.
1:45 my gf said the same thing yesterday :(
lmao
haha, nice one mate
Including the handle? :D
"I really wish they would have put a handle on this. [...] Easier to hold [...] Stick it under your arm or something... [...] I don't want to stick this in my camera bag..."
Stefan Andreasson I
Stefan Andreasson my GF said this 6:20
Going to have to agree with the other people in the comment section. Usually you give great advice on products, but you bought an entry level drone Why did you expect it to live up to the professional one? I don't understand why you spent a whole video complaining about it not living up to its more expensive counterparts, that was already a given.
Instead, you should have spent more time actually researching all the features as you clearly didn't know much about the drone. You can unlock a feature in the settings that will allow the drone to fly backwards. Also, use the controller just like you do for the phantom. The range on the control is very long for the size of the drone, it is also easier to maneuver.
Also 16 minutes is a lot of time considering the size. They knew people would want more flying time which is why they made the battery so portable and easily removable.
This video is getting a thumbs down from me.
IHazADream h8r
IHazADream He's just giving a tech review, dude. I'm sure that newbies would love this info. Dont be such a hater.
i agree
worst review ever.
Its a waste in my opinion if you want a drone just get the more expensive one if not buy a selfie stick thats what hes saying and i agree footage isnt great
The sparks controls are great with the controller though..
I have this drone and some of your points I totally agree but you said it was slow responsive? Mine isn't slow at all that being said you need to take it out of beginner mode and put it into sports mode I have got mine going up to 54 km/h took it up 120 M high and it turns on a dime.
But when you control it via phone it's as slow as he talks it is, right? Or it can be still faster with phone?
Curious, how do you like the follow modes as well as the quality of footage. I believe it shoots 1080hp 30fps. That quality should more than meet the majority of standards for todays online streaming of videos.
I'll take one Peter! Send it to me I'll make good use for it!
Nigel Ayow dude same!! 😂😂😂
Unleashing the phatom 4 gets you noticed more (hence the sleeve tats). Drone groupies are all over you! Spark is a different category. Not meant for professional use.
Buy the controller you’ll seriously know it is awesome. It’s really agile. And sporty...
12:44 you need a remote. It's much more responsive...and SUPER fast in sports mode.
+Leon Truong yeah I heard that! A few of my buddies have it with the remote. Just didn't wanna buy it.
I'm really waiting for someone to say "I bought it so I could make a RUclips video of it".... It's true
Yes, you know he was biased when he kept going on about the case he disliked and hadnt even flown it yet! I have a spark and its fantastic , fun to fly and takes great video.
I'm amazed any of his kit works the way he throws stuff around.
Damn Pete this kinda made me loose some respect and I love your content usually
This is the coolest thing I have seen in a while.
There's also some really good programme modes that I've seen in some other videos (circles and spirals and lifts and other stuff).
About the going home without a drone if it goes out of range, it does have a "home" feature that comes back to exactly where it started if it loses connection.
you're doing it the wrong way, works perfectly for me
Sounds like a very fair review! I have a Phantom but I have a Spark on the way. I think the biggest thing for me was the size and convenience of it - plus it looks like lots of fun!
Nice and authentic... As always dude :)
For someone like me (thinking of getting a drone) and on a VERY limited budget this video is really helpful. There are definitely folks out there that like the spark and some that don't. Peter gave an honest opinion based on *his* needs. I don't count this as a negative. If everyone just sucked up to dji and said how perfect all their drones were lots of us beginners would buy the wrong one. Thanks as always for posting! Love your positive attitude in all your vides man!
I loved Matti's answer!
Less is better. Get the controls then its rock.
First thing I did was like this without even watching a video cuz I knew it would be another banger :)
The spark is really great used it on my vacationvid and it work perfectly love it!
Sparks with 4K , will rule the skyways.
I feel bad.. This is the first video I've felt it needed to hit dislike! 🤔 It's just that you didn't give it a good review or use the proper equipment to fly it. And you were upset about the size when it's literally marketed as the smallest quality drone..... Idk it could have been a better review even If you hate it haha 😂
I live in germany and I could easily afford a mavic (my brother has one even) or a phantom 4 but I went for the spark because of its size and it looking like a toy and not a professional survailance drone. In germany drone are basically banned from everywhere and this I can at least fly and hope nobody will report it because it looks like a toy. everybody is always talking about buy bigger its better but at the end it helps you shit if you are not allowed to fly it anywhere.
Lukas drone law in germany sucks
KimOhNo Photo & Videographie Drone laws in Europe suck....and the distance limitation vs the VS settings suck too...and atop of all that, the prices are higher also...one has to be very addicted to buy one under these conditions.
Same here in Austria. If i get caught with this little one I can always say that i didn`t know that i need to have papers for it because its just a toy :D
Benjamin Schweiger
Would have thought you Euros would have learned when Hitler wanted everyone to show their papers. Now you're showing the Gestapo your papers for your toys...
It has actually something to do with having insurance and inforcing no fly zones etc.
Also whats the bullshit with papers and Hitler? It`s not the Gestapo it`s the same as the FAA in the USA. Casey Neistat also got Problems with it because in the USA you aren`t allowed to fly your drone everywhere(in the city, over Emergency efforts. etc.) you want. Having papers for it is just an easy way to find out that this drone belongs to this person when it should crash or somehting else happens to it. It also determines what drone can fly over which terrain depending on the sice and weight.
Also we are not one Nation(Europe is a Continent not a Country) and there are different laws in different countries so if you want to say that you have a Problem with the laws in my Country say the Laws in Austria are shit or suck or something else but don`t say stuff like "Would have thought you Euros would have learned when Hitler wanted everyone to show their papers. "
If I wanted to insult The United States of America i would say so and I wouldn`t say America because America is a continent and I wouldn`t want to insult the Canadians and Mexicans too ;)
Hey, Peter! Absolutely addicted to your channel - Honestly, you are the ONLY channel that I watch on youtube on a regular basis. The information you provide in such an entertaining way is truly top notch! Keep up the good work!
I currently operate the DJI Inspire 1 PRO, Phantom 4 PRO and Mavic PRO for my aerial drone services business, V1DroneMedia, in Cleveland, Ohio. I am loving the Phantom 4 PRO, which I believe strikes a perfect balance between the portability of the Mavic and the quality of the Zenmuse X5 on the Inspire 1. The portability and features of the Mavic PRO (as of now) can't be beat - it's pretty awesome being able to throw the Mavic in your camera bag and have it with you wherever you go. The Inspire 1 is great if you really need the better camera quality, but it is a bit of a pain to lug around and it takes much longer to set up compared to the other two. You wouldn't have to worry about your ego though (like you do with the Spark) when flying the Inspire 1! LOL! ;)
I really admire your cinematographic skills and knowledge. I wish I could have the same. Anyhow you're doing a good work by imparting knowledge you gain throughout the year. Stay blessed! And keep doing it.
First and last time I will watch this guy.
Unfortunately I think I feel the same way. Great high quality footage and editing but I am not convinced he gave it a well tested review. The gestures may not be needed but with the controller, it is a fantastic drone. Better than the Phatom 3 Standard by a long shot
Good video. Not sure who the target audience is supposed to be. As for the Spark, it's not meant to be a professional photographer tool. it is an entry into UAV hobby. It is marketed more for people wanting to dabble and get a toe into the UAV pool. Your debate is not strong, you are a professional. I would expect you to use higher end equipment (so would your clientele). That being said the Spark is far more portable then most other drones. The price is another consideration. You Phantom 4 Pro is around $1400 for a package deal. So is the Mavic. The Spark is HALF that price in it's combo!!!!! Here is a great way of looking at it, you as a professional would shoot on a Canon 7D or better. The average person doesn't need that for their camera. They can easily buy a top end point and shoot for thousands of dollars less. Let's stop comparing these drones like they were meant to be equals.
+Christopher Munton - did you watch the whole video? Lol I mentioned it was perfect for a beginner or hobbyist :) also mentioned that the phantom is a silly comparison. Thanks for watching!
I did watch, but your video implies by the title that (in your professional) opinion the Spark may not be a good choice. I like your video(s). It just seems with the title that it comes across as passive aggressive on the Sparks usefulness. I like a true review of a product. Thanks for answering. Your channel is awesome.
My first day with the spark was a complete write off . After all the updates were done I was able to get it going the next day. Now I have no regrets , I absolutely love this thing. A couple of key points I'd like to say. turn off return to home height distance when flying in doors or you'll be sorry as it scapes along the ceiling trying to get home on low batt. Also I had some problems flying around a cool bridge cause of an airport near by. This can bypassed by taping a piece of aluminum on top to cut the GPS . The video recorded on the drones SD card comes out a lot better then your phone. Use guards indoor and order extra propellers.
Loved it when your useing the force to move drone lol
Alll my vlogs are with dji spark it’s awesome filming for 500 usd but am using remote control Not the phone
Looks like i'm heading to your channel to check out the footage.....
Good review, but I hate how he throws the equipment around...
I came to see your video again just because the price of the Spark has became quite cheap on Black Friday and I was thinking about buying one. I already have a Mavic, but since I crashed once...but repaired it I thought about buying a Spark just for crazy stuff. Thanks by the way for the video, I prefer to save some money and buy another Mavic (even if I crashed it!)
I totally agree , if you are coming down from bigger better drones you are going to be frustrated with all the limitations . I have owned them all and the Mavic is the best bang for your bucks . Ok the Mavic doesn't quite keep up with the Phantom 4 Pro camera but it eats it on everything else and the camera is still very good on 4K ...
Mine ships on the 30th and I can't wait!
Buying it anyway
Would you mind using the affiliate link in the description of my last video to purchase the drone? I get a small commission. Thank you!
Happy New Year Peter!!!!
Peter, as always, you made me laugh out loud. You have great charisma. You are inspiration for numbers out there. And we are just like "woooooo, look at Peter's vlogs, so much fun and great cinematography in portable package. Yo, I wanna be like this dude...." and then we go, and we try, and we fail, and we cry, but what to do. At least we can still come back for some sincere laughs, top notch cinematography and great tips. Thanks pal!
Damn. I felt like a baller when I bought my Spark.
Danika Dickerson That’s because you are, Sparks are frickin sweet. This guy is a moron...
"booooats up everybody" never gets old
Interesting toy...
As you said can't be used for serious filmmaking, but is a little something ;)
I buy one and love it!!! Great choice to beginners.
I knew straight away it wasn't worth it when you tossed it at the start 😂😂
it's an equivalent to a point and shoot camera but a drone version.
We were looking at drones today and were debating between the spark and the mavic. This was super helpful. The budget is our biggest concern but if its not worth it might as well save and get the mavic even if it is 3 times the price!
This is the best unboxing ever
Dji is like apple in drone world but a lot better xD
DudeWhereIsTheGame apple customer support is what makes apple, DJI customer support is non existent
Loll
DudeWhereIsTheGame yeah, apple only makes overpriced shit this days. I remember the apple of the iPhone 5s, of the iPad mini 1..
What's the song called? 0:28
all of us - johan borjesson
You probably already know this by now, but you should have bought the Fly More Combo. Nice little carry case, extra battery, smart charger, prop guards (for noobs or tight spaces), and most importantly - the RC controller. The controller makes the Spark so much more fun and useful. With the combo you basically get the extra battery, case, and smart charger for free - when you consider what buying everything separately would cost.
This is the perfect template to use to conduct a product review with the protocol in which you have prejudged the product, have not fully learned to use the product, and have a bias against the product.
I think the mavic is the sweat spot
MP Dope or sweet even 😉
ew sweat spot
air or pro
0:28-1:34 what is this song?
I cant found with shazam :(
PLS HELP ME
i found it, but if u want too, u will never :)
hhkf ghkl you are a fucking troll 😂
just a little
hhkf ghkl come and drink bro
best idea after me
I have been thinking of buying a drone so I have been watching reviews on it and the mavic. I am subscribe to your channel and really enjoy the way you present information and the techniques you use. I do have to say I think you were a bit harsh on the Spark. Everyone says you have to have the controller. It makes for a much better experience and the hand gestures have to be done for 3 seconds for it to recognize. I would like to see you make it a challenge for yourself. Make an intro or some type of footage using only the spark. What can a pro with all your knowledge make with the Spark. Inspire me! Because the spark is in my price range. Or just send me that one if you really dont like it. HAHA I do enjoy your channel
I love using Spark indoors with WiFi control. Easy to maneuver, painless ease of use, and decent photos when available lighting is good.
Not feeling the gesture control .. pointless other than as conversation piece.
I've got P4 Pro, Mavic, and Spark. Spark is underrated ...
How bout a DIY handle for your spark for the next vid? ;)
Someone once said - the best drone is the one that you have with you when you need it. I hear that the Spark is a ton better with the controller vs using a phone. Plus you're uploading your videos @ 1080P - should be good enough for quick shots.
I think its for a certain demographic, Vloggers for sure will get a lot of use out of this drone. being able to launch it quickly and get decent footage for RUclips is a major plus. I have seen people struggle with about of time it takes to get the Mavic in the air. but I think it can be a useful tool for some situations.
HOLY SMOKES PETER!!!!!! I REMEMBER SEEING YOU UNDER 20k subs like a few months ago!! You are growing like crazy
I kept waiting for you to say you were kidding. You didn't, lol. You know nothing at all about it. There are millions of awesome videos made with it. I used one, it was killer. Lost a lot of respect for you here man.

PETER IS AN EGO MANIAC, EXPECTS EVERYONE TO BUY MORE EXPENSIVE EQUIPMENT. HE BIG NOTES HIMSELF, LIKE I'VE GOT THIS AND I'VE GOT THIS. SAYS HE WAS EMBARRASSED TO FLY THE SPARK WITH PEOPLE WATCHING. "WHAT A PRICK" Heaps of people love the Spark. Some people drive Fords and some drive Ferrari's !!!!
Complaining about a case the size of a book not having a grip?! Are you for real 🤔😂
Love your videos and tutorials Peter. Thanks for showing us the DJI Spark as I'm planning on getting a drone soon to help take my content to the next level.
please avoid being cocky. stay humble. your are a good person .
god dang those camera shots are sharp!!! (your cam not the spark)
It's like a puppy, it looks adorable and you need to have it, then when u get it u realize that you really don't want to deal with poop and it eating you cushions.
I’m a hobbyist photographer, wanted to get a cool, reliable drone to test out so I picked the Spark. Thing is awesome especially with the controller. After a while I might upgrade to the Mavic Pro.
I clicked on this video, fully expecting a sponsored video from DJI, but was pleasantly surprised! Thanks for the honest review Peter!!
LOL.
Wow chris!
Haha
Chris Ramsay chris!!!!!!
Chris Ramsay What are you doing here !?!?😀😀
"Its only 1080p" Well, give it out if you going to complain about its good quality. At least its not 720p
Good quality?!?
In the world of drones now capable of filming in 5K having a max res of 1080p is far from "good quality".
It is a toy that has advanced hand gesture features. That are only good to play with. Why would anyone want a video of themselves waving madly? They are gimmicks that any child would be bored with after 10 minutes.

WTF how many people have 4 k TVs let alone 5K.... and most people are watching on mobile devices or computer screens so hard pressed to tell the diff!!!
The controller for Spark is amazing I bought fly more combo of Spark and a battery I got 3 batteries really nice drone I flying it with my controller controller is small like Spark if you want to buy Spark buy it with fly more combo pack and get Propeller guards Charge hub (Charge up to 3 batteries at same time) controller Charger, Charger(for Charge hub) and 2 batteries
I actually purchased a Spark in the "why not" mentality! Turns out this little drone is becoming one of favorites to fly. Second to my Mavic Pro of course but the Spark has its place in my drone line for sure
Why don't people get this? This drone was clearly made with the purpose for amateur use and easy handling like a toy for those who want to buy a drone in an affordable price and which isn't complicated to fly. If filmmakers want a drone they can buy other professional drones that are available. People are getting this drone so wrong.
+IAMSAKAR I agree with you- completely. I don't think people are getting it wrong - I still want to check out the new features and technology within and see how it handles as something new in our industry. Skill level aside- it's a product I'm interested in checking out so I'll review it based on my needs. :) thanks for watching!
How do u carry your phantom around all the time
Ha, Ha!!!! that's F&^5*)#@cked him. So full of himself!!!
"saving up a little bit more, and buying something like the Mavic"
"little bit more"
"little bit"
Ummm... in my country, the version of the Mavic Pro that comes with the remote costs literally 3 TIMES as much as the version of the Spark that comes with the remote.
The Spark travelled well in the L-pro 450 without the foam box. So no need for it. Good to have a second drone option around with little real estate used up in my opinion.
@Peter McKinnon what is name of that track at 5:48 from Epidemic sounds?

As a runner who would love to bring a drone with me, this is probably the best choice but that it completely based on the size. Even a big running backpack is not that big and you usually want other stuff with you too. I can see the same thing for hikers and other adventures people. As a film maker who brings a lot of other big stuff the difference in size compared to Phantom 4+ is maybe not so valuable.
This is the 1st time i’m seeing a youtuber act like a ego jerk while reviewing product. He didn’t even try to review the drone seriously, just being bias and always stick to the more expensive product. Anyway, goodluck with your channel.
