B&H has a deal of the day I couldn't resist Here (was $829), and my Spark now has a friend. A new Phantom 4 Advanced is on its way.  Now to study up on the differences. Any words of experience is welcome. The Spark will remain my primary due to its low profile and the P4A will be when I have to have the larger sensor + RAW.

Nice!

I am not sure my spark would ever see the light of day if I had a P4A.  All those bells and whistles....

Enjoy it.

Wow.  That is nice.  I have zero use for that drone and its features but it is still tempting.  Dual IMU's and the bigger sensor,...yes.

I have a P3 and a Spark.

Love them both.

However, the Spark gets the most use due to it's portability.    I have the FMC.   It's way too easy to grab that very small bag, that has everything I need to fly.   Easy to grab,  easy to thrown in the car/truck,  easy to get out,  easy and quick to get airborne.

I still fly my P3,  but the spark gets the most use due to size/portability.

Spark or Mavic Air wins for portability. Unless you need a professional shot. But I like to take my Spark everywhere with me just in case I want to film. What would you rather wear?

So very true. The spark is so easy to carry and no one seems to care about it due to the small size and by far the zero to flight time is just some of the reasons the Spark is still likely going to remain my main bird.
