I have an important question, when I use my active track mode & highlight myself & then it keeps saying aircraft too low... that could mean anything, too low to the ground? low battery? wifi? whats going on? I even raise the drone higher up over 10 feet above me & it still says aircraft too low
Christopher Otero: some you tubers with a sufficient amount of subscribers actually either get the product for free or they get a pre released mode (to be returned)l. Based upon CopterTube's subscription base, he most likely have a pre-released model that has to be returned. People like Casey Neistat actually keeps his since he has 7.1 M subscribers. It is an inexpensive method of advertising to your subscribers and less expensive that other mediums such as TV and newspapers.
If u lose the signal via phone connection, does it go back to the locked GPS home position? Or at least until it gets the WiFi connection back on? Thanks.
If you set return home altitude and you take off on high ground. Will it be the altitude from point of take off or will it be from sea level altitude ? someone please answer this
Hi CopterTube, I just got Spark 2 days ago. I have attempted to use the quickshot mode Helix a few times with my phone (Without RC). However, it always scared me whenever flying a bit far and high. So my question is: 1. Have you ever tried the whole cycle of Helix mode? Which means let it finish the mode and return to original position? Is there any problem? 2. If there is problem from above question, does it mean I have to stop the Spark whenever it goes out of my phone range? Thank you,
JUDALUCI hello. If the drone goes out of range then it should come back home. These modes in my opinion are better done with the remote that gives the drones more range. Also always remember to have plenty of open space when doing these modes. Thanks for watching.
Hi Judaluci, I have the same problem so I contacted DJI support and they told me that - " As of the moment it can work on iPhones and for the android it is under development " So all we need to do it wait......
That's the only shitty part..it doesn't come with a controller! they get to market and advertise the cheapest drone for 499, yet if you really want to fly it it's 700+ taxes..
I believe the DJI Spark has the feauture to automatically 'return home' when its too far or disconnected from the controller. So you really don't have to worry about losing connection. I didn't get the chance to be a beta tester but I would really love to have one when its released on the mid of July! Nice video btw. You're the only one who recorded the app interface via phone. Good job mate!
nah there have been plenty of spark fly aways and lost sparks because of lost connection. i am awaiting my spark but dji isnt shipping controllers until the end of the month smh
yeah I saw a video of a fly away.... but that was like the pilot said (it was my fault) He didn't mark the home position when he hand launch it.... I always first turn the drone on... let it mark its home position and then fly.
I use to have a Parrot and used a WIFI range extender AMPED SR1000 to pair with the drone. Think is possible with this Spark? Maybe extend range and reliability without the control. Nice posts! Use to live near Cape Canaveral would be a cool place to chase ships.
Thank you for this video. This has been the best tutorial for QuickShots. I've been searching hours trying to find a easy to follow video. This is by far the best! THANK YOU AGAIN!
CopterTube Hi, enjoy your vids! I have the fly more combo and follow all the directions but it won't go into face recognition mode. I want to fly with the remote or phone, so I turn on, wait for the warm up process, tap the battery two times. The front led flash red two times and then solid. Back led flash yellow ( as in transmission lost but I want to fly it without the remote or phone. Please help!
They are different class drones. Spark ⚡️ mostly sold to the consumer as a dronie drone in my opinion. With that said mavic is great.... I have some videos putting it to the test. Both drones are great for what they are designed for. I will be trying to do a cruise chase with the Spark ⚡️ also. Stay tuned 😄
Video Vlogs101 You would be dumb to get the Spark over the Mavic. Spark with controller, and one extra battery will run you $750. Mavic is better in almost every aspect.
sfox84 How would it be dumb just based on buying something that cost a little less? I already ordered the mavic and it should arrive today. only thing I am worried about is that a new mavic doesn't come out this year with a better camera. I was considering the phantom 4 pro but after comparing the fly more combo with extra batteries and the cost of the p4p with batteries and props, I decided I'd start with the mavic first and see how it goes.
The follow mode is a very important feature to many people. Maybe I missed it on this video, or maybe this drone does not have a have a follow mode? In any event, thanks for a good video presentation of the Spark.
CopterTube, Thanks for the video. You always do a great job. I was waiting for the Spark but I don't think it's for me. I like the Mavic except for the camera, I wish it had a better camera like the Pro but it's not bad. I would buy the Phantom 4 Pro but it's too big. I was hoping to see a Phantom 5 with fold up landing gears but I guess not until Sept maybe. It looks like you shoot the ships off Ft. Lauderdale. I guess I will buy the Mavic and buy the Phantom 5 when it comes out, thanks again
It's nice but you gotta have that controller really and that's another $150 and to get the equal battery life to the Mavic, you need a spare battery so add $250 to the price with tax - if you want a close range selfie camera with lower res video then the Spark is great
Yeah I’m still watching TV / movies on a 120” screen from a 720p projection. So the 1080p resolution from the Spark camera looks great to me. And the 4K stuff just seems like overkill still. To me at least. Oh and the batteries are only $50 each for Spark so that’s pretty cool too.
cool review but did it really go from 100% battery to 18% in 7 minutes or was it used during extra parts not put into this video ? cheers for showing everyone the modes before hand dude 👌
Good stuff, thanks for the info, we have been trying to use the spark in our video for some B roll but haven't successfully got any good content yet. Maybe some of this more automated control will help.
Hello everybody. Though quickshots mode exist at my rc, I can't find other functions such as dronie, circle, helix and rocket. Could anybody tell me how I can find them?
Hello Sergio, I did everything as possible as I can. Even I updated latest firmware into another cell phone. Nothing changed. I use the remote control when I fly my spark. Do I have to adjust finely or change some function by cellphone? Do you have any idea? Thank you very much.
Andy Kelly it depends on your needs, what do you use it for? The spark is perfect for me since it's so small and I can take it everywhere and still do sweetass photography.
Totally awesome video👍👌.I heard the spark is waterproof that be awesome if you do a test flight drench it with water 💦 you're probably going to get more 1 million reviews if you did that...
The Mavic is the better drone 4K. Mavic doesn't have Palm control and that's about it. The Mavic will have 4 Mile Range, 40 MPH flight etc. The Sparks a good choice for a beginner or someone who only needs 1080P etc. Personally I would buy the fly more kit for the Spark if anybody purchases this over a Mavic. You'll want the controller for range and it's not a bad value. *Hopefully when CopterTube gets the controller we get another Cruise Ship chase lol.
Carlos RM Why don't you keep your negativity in your ass where it belongs. What works for one may not for another. I have all the Dji drones and am sick of complainers without any better suggestions. I found a lot of errors are because of not doing the basic steps such as calibration and testing Rth and surroundings prior to take off. You sound like the type that needs cartoon written instructions.
You didn't lose reception, the drone lost tracking because you were wearing clothes the same color as the ground and it can't see you as it got further away.
That's the only shitty part..it doesn't come with a controller! they get to market and advertise the cheapest drone for 499, yet if you really want to fly it it's 700+ taxes..
The more Spark videos I see, the more I want it right now!
thanks, it looked most of the time outta focus specially compared to the Mavic ? is that the case the camera it is not as good as the mavic ?
I have an important question, when I use my active track mode & highlight myself & then it keeps saying aircraft too low... that could mean anything, too low to the ground? low battery? wifi? whats going on? I even raise the drone higher up over 10 feet above me & it still says aircraft too low
good video and how the heck did you already have the dji spark??
😉 Thanks for watching.
Christopher Otero beta tester... excellent review... this is why they have it before everybody Christopher...
Thais what I thought...
Christopher Otero:
some you tubers with a sufficient amount of subscribers actually either get the product for free or they get a pre released mode (to be returned)l. Based upon CopterTube's subscription base, he most likely have a pre-released model that has to be returned. People like Casey Neistat actually keeps his since he has 7.1 M subscribers.

If u lose the signal via phone connection, does it go back to the locked GPS home position? Or at least until it gets the WiFi connection back on? Thanks.
can you make it follow you by walking towards the drone & the drone hovering back as you walk towards it?
Did you try to change the wifi settings of DJI GO App to 2.4 Ghz and see if the wifi signal is stable enough to go farther?
can you pre-create a flight path "take off , circle around the house 2 times, land at the starting position" something like that?
so I bought the DJI spark fly more pack and i don't have the intelligent flight modes...
What if you start walking? Will it still do it with you in the picture?
Any word if the new flight modes will be available on the Mavic Pro?
Thanks but you didn't show me how you got those grids on the screen to set up the facial recognition, seem s like you skipped some steps. Too bad.
when I open up quick shot those 4 options doesnt show
Is it possibile use a Wi-Fi extender to improve the signal iPhone?
How did you record the screen of the phone?
@CopterTube - great vid, whats the second song called?
I cant draw to make the tracking box. It just moves the gimbal. How do you draw the tracking box to make the quickshots work?
It could get lost connection using phone thru wifi that easily? What if with controller? Whats the maximum distance? Thanks
Is follow me mode available? I see follow the palm of your hand but the full follow me function when you run or ski?
nicolas reynard yes follow me is available.
How fast can it actively track you? I'm thinking for when I'm on my bike. thanks
Like 25 mph
The spark goes 31 mph
hello mate, wondering what microphone you are using and whats it hooked up to?
Garth Henderson hello. I put the link in the description below. Thanks for watching.
Thanks champski!
If you set return home altitude and you take off on high ground. Will it be the altitude from point of take off or will it be from sea level altitude ? someone please answer this
Nice demo! How does the Spark react when going out of wifi-range? Does it come back until you get the signal back? Thanks!
JaZzMaN251 it comes back home 🏡. Thanks for watching. Please share and subscribe. 🚁⚡️🛳
how do you exit that mode with the remote controller?
Hi CopterTube, I just got Spark 2 days ago. I have attempted to use the quickshot mode Helix a few times with my phone (Without RC). However, it always scared me whenever flying a bit far and high. So my question is:

So all we need to do it wait......
how are you showing the on screen images in your video?
Is that an ironing board?
Does it have a remote control, or do you use the app to control it?
David Heggood this is just a prototype. You can buy a remote when you buy the spark
Thanks, I found a more in depth review after asking that question and figured it out. It also cost more money to get a controller, king of crazy.
That's the only shitty part..it doesn't come with a controller! they get to market and advertise the cheapest drone for 499, yet if you really want to fly it it's 700+ taxes..
How did you screen record your iPhone ?
Nice video .. Do you still have to calibrate the spark before flying it or on the spark calibration it's not needed it
Thanks
What version of the GO4 app do u fly the spark with?
The one that's just been released in the last few days..:
Awesome video! Nice & real. Just bough my own Spark last week. Still tweaking around it. Hopefully I can get wonderful shots soon to share.
why my spark doesn't have audio when in computer??
do you like it better than your mavic?
nice video, totally awesome with Mavic in air at the same time as Spark
I can't wait to get one on my channel as well
Why don’t u do one with the spark controller
I believe the DJI Spark has the feauture to automatically 'return home' when its too far or disconnected from the controller. So you really don't have to worry about losing connection.
I didn't get the chance to be a beta tester but I would really love to have one when its released on the mid of July!
Nice video btw. You're the only one who recorded the app interface via phone. Good job mate!
Thanks for watching. 😄🚁⚡️. More coming soon.
good to know about this return feature
jUp
nah there have been plenty of spark fly aways and lost sparks because of lost connection. i am awaiting my spark but dji isnt shipping controllers until the end of the month smh
yeah I saw a video of a fly away.... but that was like the pilot said (it was my fault) He didn't mark the home position when he hand launch it.... I always first turn the drone on... let it mark its home position and then fly.
Thank you so much for doing this video. 👍
Nice video. How do you record you phone screen to show us it the features as you see them
Exploring with Stratus View I will do a video on this soon. Thanks for watching.
what will happen if you lost your wifi connection and you let the spark continue recording? will it save the video and comeback home?
Louie Ace yes. Thanks for watching.
Whats software do you use? 3:33
Nice first look video, looking forward to more video's of what maybe the drone for everyone. Love your channel.
Ron Brown 😁 thanks for watching.
Excellent video! Thank you!!!Like it!
I use to have a Parrot and used a WIFI range extender AMPED SR1000 to pair with the drone. Think is possible with this Spark? Maybe extend range and reliability without the control. Nice posts! Use to live near Cape Canaveral would be a cool place to chase ships.
If you can choose a different frequency use it, because the range of 5.8hz is very limited.
Thank you for this video. This has been the best tutorial for QuickShots. I've been searching hours trying to find a easy to follow video. This is by far the best! THANK YOU AGAIN!
Thanks! How windy was it?
Was about 10-12 Mph. Thanks for watching 😄🚁⚡️
Looks pretty stable to me.

Hola, cómo puedo hacer para que grabe y se aleje aún más.
Cuando hago el modo dronie solo graba aprox 10 segundos y se aleja solo uno 25 mts
Gracias
Will the spark flight modes be available for Mavic?
I don't think so.. Unless they release a update and the software can allow it, if it's new hardware in the spark then it won't happen.
That was great thanks for all the info. who made your video intro?
The follow mode is a very important feature to many people. Maybe I missed it on this video, or maybe this drone does not have a have a follow mode? In any event, thanks for a good video presentation of the Spark.
Good video, thanks. Nevertheless, why didn't you do the quick shots and let it lose connection. It should return to home.
does anyone know if the dji mavic pro avoids telephone or power lines. does it even see it
No you have to be very careful of that, thin things like poles are not seen by the sensors
CopterTube, Thanks for the video. You always do a great job. I was waiting for the Spark but I don't think it's for me. I like the Mavic except for the camera, I wish it had a better camera like the Pro but it's not bad. I would buy the Phantom 4 Pro but it's too big.

I guess I will buy the Mavic and buy the Phantom 5 when it comes out, thanks again
Stop saying it will lose connection it has 60 meters of horizontal distance and 70 meters vertical distance it can fly
That's what I was saying.. We all know you can't fly the drone far and why is he even trying these modes out if he's afraid of losing reception?
After losing the connection, Spark comes back
@@viktorzacik8988 To China.
Thanks for sharing this was a nice video dude! I learned a lot! How did you record the screen while using the app by the way? Keep it up man! :)
It's nice but you gotta have that controller really and that's another $150 and to get the equal battery life to the Mavic, you need a spare
battery so add $250 to the price with tax - if you want a close range selfie camera with lower res video then the Spark is great
Simon Harris I think that you can use a wifi extender USB. So you can improve the iPhone signal
I hadn’t heard that 1080p was now considered “low res”. I’ll now have to call my cable co. to complain
Yeah I’m still watching TV / movies on a 120” screen from a 720p projection. So the 1080p resolution from the Spark camera looks great to me. And the 4K stuff just seems like overkill still. To me at least.
Oh and the batteries are only $50 each for Spark so that’s pretty cool too.
how windy was it spark seems to be holding up well.
Naseem Ahmed was about 10-15 mph winds. Thanks for watching
CopterTube thanks 👍
good video, to the point no bull crap
Great review. Cant wait till the release of the spark
Thanks for watching.
Great video, my man!
cool review but did it really go from 100% battery to 18% in 7 minutes or was it used during extra parts not put into this video ? cheers for showing everyone the modes before hand dude 👌
Good stuff, thanks for the info, we have been trying to use the spark in our video for some B roll but haven't successfully got any good content yet. Maybe some of this more automated control will help.
So why don’t you use the remote control to do things right
Make sure to do a Cruise ship chase with the Spark. :P hahaha
it loses reception at just 75 feet?
ALL EDDIE EVERYTHING that's with out the remote.
Hello everybody. Though quickshots mode exist at my rc, I can't find other functions such as dronie, circle, helix and rocket. Could anybody tell me how I can find them?
enver ozustun did you update to latest firmware?
Hello Sergio, I did everything as possible as I can. Even I updated latest firmware into another cell phone. Nothing changed. I use the remote control when I fly my spark. Do I have to adjust finely or change some function by cellphone? Do you have any idea? Thank you very much.
when you get controller, maybe do some range test? :) btw, put some cloth cover on your mic, that is noisy.
+iANN Hooo i will definitely. Thanks for watching. 🚁⚡️😁
Headless mode?
nice tutorial! very helpful!
Hope you do a Spark cruise ship chase soon. Really want to see that!
James Lovell I will try. I don't think it will make it to far since it's a wifi drone. Thanks for watching. Please subscribe.
CopterTube Is the range longer with the controller or is it the same as using with the phone?
awesome review dude
Luqman Radzuan thanks for watching. 😁🚁⚡️
useful - but not very since you have to abort each of the modes so as remain in wifi range.
Great explanation!! Thanks, this was very helpful
Thank you! You were a big help :)
thanks very helpful video, pity about the wind noise.
Mavic or Spark?
mavic
Andy Kelly different categories drones. More videos explaining soon. Thanks for watching.
Andy Kelly it depends on your needs, what do you use it for? The spark is perfect for me since it's so small and I can take it everywhere and still do sweetass photography.
I want badass filming, not interested in sweetass
Andy Kelly spark
You won't be chasing ships with this one! ;-)
wargor ohhhh trust me..... I'll try 🛳😁. Just waiting on the remote.
Pity you can't control it with the mavic remote...
have to tried to bind with mavic controller?
it's supposed to do 31mph in sports mode, but guess it requires the remote to get access to the switch.
That is my dream drone right there!!!
Totally awesome video👍👌.I heard the spark is waterproof that be awesome if you do a test flight drench it with water 💦 you're probably going to get more 1 million reviews if you did that...
Not water or dust proof
Yeah, that'd be a great idea. NOT !!! 🙄
no 4K?
Are There Andy Features in the Mavic which arent in the Spark?
(Sorry for my Bad english)
The Mavic is the better drone 4K. Mavic doesn't have Palm control and that's about it. The Mavic will have 4 Mile Range, 40 MPH flight etc. The Sparks a good choice for a beginner or someone who only needs 1080P etc.
Personally I would buy the fly more kit for the Spark if anybody purchases this over a Mavic. You'll want the controller for range and it's not a bad value.
*Hopefully when CopterTube gets the controller we get another Cruise Ship chase lol.
When are you doing a goggle review?
Thanks for posting this video
Thank you
Don't video a demo if you can't shoot it properly, get a RC!!!
Carlos RM

Read comment below. Coptertube...Good job!!
I'm going to buy this on Friday
well explained :)
Nice video
You didn't lose reception, the drone lost tracking because you were wearing clothes the same color as the ground and it can't see you as it got further away.
Aissh, I will buy it purposely but it's battery life is too suck man 😭 I hope it has longer battery life !!
ya its one of the most efficient mode to fly
good droning
thank u too
nice
That's the only shitty part..it doesn't come with a controller! they get to market and advertise the cheapest drone for 499, yet if you really want to fly it it's 700+ taxes..
Nice review of the Spark
Pls use a Controller....
Have some trust in the drone
Thanks for not covering every intelligent mode...
Me to
