I just bought my first real drone (a DJI Spark) and I'm loving it.

About 160ft facing downtown Sav and the Talmadge bridge
It's not really a drone unless you drop bombs on innocent women and children with it.
I ate chipotle two nights ago and crop dusted the fuck out of 3 aisles in Walmart yesterday....does that count???
Sunset in Savannah from 300ft above my house
300ft selfie
300ft selfie
Took it up to 400ft tonight. Trying to be careful since theres a lot of signal interference in the city
How long battery last? I was given a cheapish one as a present, battery last only 15 mins
The battery on the spark only lasts about 10-12 minutes.
Thats extremely disappointing. Been looking at the DJI Mini. Fuck it if its 10 minutes of fun though...
I don't know how long the mini runs, but batteries are only like $50
The drone in have was able to buy larger batteries that actually fit sideways across battery compartment and took flying time from 10-12 mins to 15-18mins depending on how hard I flew it.
I’ve had a DJI P3S and a Mavic Pro I’ll post up some shots later. I taken my P3S out for a mile.
Meh still. I wanted to use it for filming and slapping a new battery in every ten minutes sounds annoying.
I got 24 mins flight time out of my mavic and about 20 mins out of the P3S no mods
I was looking at a Mavic 2 at Best Buy last night - 999, 1399, 1549.....options, price differences....hate to buy not knowing - lot of cash for a toy.
The spark is in an odd place because it still has a gimbal and lots of features, but it's packed into a small frame so it has to work a little harder.
I've got a set of MAS props coming. They're supposed to be a little quieter and buy a bit more air time.
