I wonder if the Spark will suffer the same delivery disaster as the Mavic when it was first launched.

Fingers crossed...

I would like

The $499 spark will ship on time if you ordered within the first hour, nobody will see there combos until sometime in July. Extra batteries won't be available till ?????

Well when first orders were taken it said 15th June for Combo it now says today 30th of June , still says 15th June for just Spark .
Would like to think all who ordered within first few hours will ship 15th including Combo. We shall see it might be a chance for dji to redeem itself.

I agree with (or HOPE) that Hallmark is right.  When I ordered it said shipping estimate was June 15th for the combo in white.  Why would they list June 15th if they aren't planning to ship combo's until July?  Furthermore, if you order now the shipping estimate is now June 30. So obviously as more of the initial stock was ordered they adjusted the shipping estimate to reflect that.

Online Chat said all orders that were ordered 24th and 25th are scheduled to ship out on June 15th on first come first serve basis. Fingers crossed.

Yeah hopefully, dji needs some positive press regarding shipping new released merchandise, be nice to get some good use and fun with it during the summer.
Thank you for the heads up from CS..

This is DJI - it may be delivered by December ... IF you're lucky.

I would say on time.
Unlike the mavic, DJI felt threatened by the Karma and rushed the Mavic 6/12 months ahead of schedule. They didn't have the production line ready and considering the complexity of the Mavic - new body, folding anti-shake frame, worlds smallest 4k 3 axis gimbal, occusync, new remote, folding props, new propulsion system, gesture modes etc and a price point that made the demand unpredictable. Quality assurance and testing would have taken longer for each unit.

The spark on the other hand isnt facing any threats. Dobby and Breeze have already been released. The spark in much simpler than the Mavic. It is just a rigid molded frame with 2 axis 1080p camera. It is using borrowed and tested tech from the mavic/phantoms. And DJI has learnt of the Mavic short supply know how to tackle this issue. I don't think DJI can handle another supply debacle.

Yes, I think the Spark will ship on time and everyone will be happy

I ordered 1 single on dji and expect it to be delivered on time. On the other hand i also ordered a combo locally and they already postponed the delivery time from end of June to mid of august :-) let's get surprised

I've just been onto dji chat I purchased within the first 30 minutes A Combo, they tell me it will ship on 28th June , I thought when I purchased it said 15th June.

I wonder how it's looking for Amazon shipping - still says June 15th for the combo.

I just chatted with Allan DJI customer support and he said my fly less white Spark will ship on or before 6/15 and fly more white Spark on or before 6/30.  I ordered 5/24 - 16:05 - fly less & 16:13 - fly more

I would never order any DJI new launch product from local dealer being thru the horrible experience of Mavic Pro.  Most local dealer will not be treat as first priority customer in DJI sense, only DJI online store will get the first batch of newly launched product.  Have a look at Apple store, they not even taking Spark preorder, because Apple got upset with previous Mavic handling issue and stop carry any preorder product from DJI.

The single order already shipped in China area since last week.  Now you can easily get a single Spark in China Taoboo online for less than 24hours shipping time.

I got an order confirmation directly from DJI this morning, that the DJI Spark Fly More Combo (Arctic White) and micro SD Card had shipped, along with the Fed Ex Shipping tracking number - HAD SHIPPED TODAY!  My order was placed - Order Time: 2017-05-24 17:04:02 (UTC) .  I'm so excited to get my hands on it and start using it.  Thanks DJI!

If it's your first you will love it, give the Manual a going over, and enjoy.

Mine will be arriving friday

Iordered on the 25th. of May and called today as I've yet to get the shipped status.  The on-line chat said it said approximately on June 15th.  As others have seen the site now says approximately the 30th. Starting to lpok a lot like another debacle in getting the product out when promised.
