I'm not seeing an onslaught of complaints about the Mavic Pro arms breaking and it's been out for awhile. I did see a couple photos of Sparks that managed to get their arms smashed off. It sounded like it was a pretty severe crash though.
Some little details that I have noticed:
In a critical crash, all drones will break but it's common sense that a sturdy non-movable frame can withstood a less serious crash better than a foldable one.
OTG is only important to Android users, I tried it a couple of months ago, it didn't improve the signal for me - I'm an iPhone user. So yes, Mavic Air is better for Android users.
The Mavic Pro is definitely not as portable as Spark! Air maybe, definitely not the Pro - it's twice the weight, not to mention the battery is heavier as well. Even when folded up it's as big as those old school mobile phone from the 80s. Again, the Mavic Air's RC is both a pro and con. It's more portable, but I can see people losing those screw-on sticks and not able to fly on their trip.
I never relied on the sensors, I fly in Sports mode almost all the time, they are disabled. |
