Northern Ireland Spark-Mavic Air pilot

[David2111]

My wife insisted on buying me a drone for by birthday last October. I found out what she had done just before it arrived. She had bought a Phantom 4. I said Whooooa, that's too big, so it was sent back.

Plan B was a Spark, I ride a motorcycle and tour Scotland and Europe each year, the drone had to fit in my tank bag and the Spark was perfect.

True story, I took it on a trip to the Lake District in September last year with my biking club and put together a video of the tour and some stuff from the drone. Pretty pleased with the video, anyway, I got a new (half knee) in November and when my Physio came to see me she said, "I know you, do you ride a motorbike and did you go to the Lake District run in September?"

I said "Yes, do you ride a motorbike?" she said "No" but her husband did. I asked what sort of bike he had, she said "A blue one". End of conversation.

Then she said "Are you Dronnie Dave?"

I guess I am. Spark was fantastic, Mavic Air is even better.
