New aircraft on test
- the DJI Spark!
Beckwith's Mine
- DJI Spark 26/8/17
Practical flying endurance
of the Spark seems limited to around 10 minutes per battery so after my
test flights I switched over to the larger and more powerful Phantom 4,
which can achieve up to around 25 minites of practical flying per battery.
