Hey People,
im looking for my first drone. I want to use it for making some short Movies about different places i travel to. So a big Phantom is not an option. My price range covers dji spark fly more combo and the Dji Mavic Air normal with maybe 1 additional Battery. I made a little comparison, did i forget anything?

You may want to revisit the Sparks camera features given that the panorama mode and shallow focus was first introduced on the Spark. The max speeds are also wrong. The flight modes are missing several on each. OA system not mentioned. Both come with travel bags for protection. Spark does have camera settings but not resolution or frame rate. And I'd include the Mavic Pro and Platinum.

Hello A CW
the max Speed is in normal mode not Sport mode. With flight modes i just wanted to show that i personally really like that Palm launching and landing feature and that the Mavic Air dont have it. The other flightmodes are not that important for me. The better Active Track on the Mavic air is good too. The rest ist just a nice to have.
Mavic Pro is just not in my Price range because when i buy the Air i just go for the normal not the fly more combo.

I see - you didn't write that in your post when you asked if you missed anything. I wouldn't know what you've missed if you are only making comparisons that are personal to you. And to be clear, the Mavic Air is a clear upgrade over the Spark.

Kwinni Air is on whole diffrent level compared too Spark, becouse Air has improved camera,more sensors, APAS and its price even makes PRO look alittle bad. I would choose Air

Field of view of the Air is larger than the spark. Might be handy if you are in places where you can't fly so high.

Various camera settings on the Air.
