Here’s an interesting video - a speed comparison between my DJI Spark and Mavic Air.

Excellent comparrason!

Nice work

Thanks for sharing this amazing drone comparison. Thank you for continued support.

Some questions....1) Are the specs listed from DJI published specs or from your own testing?  2)  The numbers for Mavic Air GPS mode are the same for sensor on or off...is that because Air has both forward and reward sensors?  Thanks

thanks for the comparison!

Rustic 17, 1. The speeds are from the testing, as displayed on the video feed - that’s why I used the footage from the phone, not the drone, so you could see the speeds.
2. I don’t know, that’s a good suggestion though.  I only found that fact out during this comparison.

So your speeds could be wind affected.

Great! Thanks for sharing

To be honest I didn’t take any notice of the wind, either the strength, or lack thereof, or the direction.

Nice video. My spark go's 55.3 km/h

Not bad.  I don’t go into Sports Mode very often.  I was happy with 52.6Km’h, from a standing start, for a duration of only 10 seconds.  Fast little critters, aren’t they?

Yes they are...very

Very nice, great comparison

Nice comparison. For more advanced pilots, max speeds can be adjusted in pretty much every mode.
