Summer is finally here I needed a new DGI drone we're going to talk about the DJI
Spark 2 and what's going on so today's video I'm filming on the DJI Osmo Action
I'm here in Hollywood Beach in case you don't know I'm brecky air mellow break
air mellow calm and thought I'd do a little vlog at the beach it is really
hot feels like 100 degrees or more as you can see it's packed here because
it's summertime okay so we're gonna talk about the spark to what's going on with
DJI spark - so it was supposed to be released on July 23rd but that's not
gonna happen anymore unfortunately I'm gonna talk about the specs about the
spark - in this video is my first time blogging with the Osmo action what you
guys think is the audio all right there's a lot of music around here so I
don't know if it's picking up everything or of my voices alright I'm about a foot
away from the camera but it's really nice because I can see myself on the
front screen so now about the spark to a spark - is I don't know why I'm walking
so fast a tire sees I need to get in shape
alright need to work on my beach body but the spark - was supposed to come out
on July 23rd but DGI and insider a DJI this was reported by a drone DJ a couple
days ago he said that this insider said that the memo was sent out to DJI
employees from an executive that explained that the DGI spark 2 is going
to be postponed indefinitely so we don't know when it's going to come out it's
gonna probably come out this year if I had to guess it's still going to come
out this year but it was supposed to be released on July 23rd and I'm really
shocked that DGI hasn't come out with a drone since last August the end of
August last year 2018 when they came out with the Mavic - but they haven't come
out with a consumer prosumer drone in that amount of times so what's going on
I talked about that in another video you can look at that up here where I
explained what DGI is doing as a drone company and
the fact that they're not really a drone company anymore actually I think I'm
gonna have to go in the other direction I think it's too noisy here all right so
so switching directions I'm gonna go back this way because it was just too
noisy so I think we're gonna see a DJI spark too and it's year
the thing is DGI is gonna lose out on a lot of money because it's really a kid
and family drone and I was hoping for the Phantom 5 or at least the Mavic 2
but they haven't given us that nice DGI so now you've lowered my expectations to
the spark - and you won't even give me that so I I think I have the same
sentiment as a lot of you guys out there you're kind of frustrated what's going
on with DGI why can't we get a drone what's happening for one thing they're
gonna miss out on a lot of sales this summer because it's a children's and
family drone so flying with your family with kids the spark is really aimed for
that and by not releasing it the summer when the kids have the free time they're
not in school DGI is really missing out on a lot of
sales millions of dollars in revenue that I think they would be making with
the spark - so I'm gonna stop walking I think I'm gonna just go over here oh it
feels weird when you're a little weird when you're vlogging as everyone's
looking at you well maybe not they're probably just let's get lotion in my eye
so the spark 2 is gonna come out we don't know when unfortunately it's gonna
be like blowing at me close upon me so let's talk about the spark two specs
when it does come out which will probably be the fall I mean if they're
gonna release it this summer maybe the fall late fall for the winter I mean it
doesn't really make sense to not release it this summer so they're not going to
do it then I think they would be doing it in the winter unless they're going to
come out with a phantom 5 or maybe the Mavic air - hopefully we'll see another
drone and within the next month or so the
spark to is supposed to shoot 4k unlike 1080 the first original spark shot 1080
the updated version was supposed to shoot 4k it was also supposed to have a
3 axis gimbal so it'd be better and wind and a little more stable and fly a
little longer a few more minutes of flight time but the big thing was the
fact that it can shoot 4k which for a drone at that price usually the spark is
around 4 or $500 around there maybe 600 bucks max I think maybe a little less
probably four or five hundred dollars with the combo maybe it's a little more
maybe six or 700 for that price you need 4k at this point in time especially with
the Mavic air dropping in price and being such a great drone I would imagine
the spark would definitely shoot for okay the only thing that was a little
disappointing that I heard was that it's not gonna have a key sync 2.0 so the
range is still gonna be that crappy range where it doesn't fly very far but
for family isn't for most use the spark is pretty good I mean at first I thought
it was just kind of a toy zone or a fun drone for just kids and families but you
can actually you could shoot professionally with it you know
especially if it comes out with 4k the first one I say 1080 the flight time and
the fact that shoots 1080 bummer but a few more minutes and the Animus shoots
4k I think it'll be a pretty decent drone or a drone you could travel with
and fly with now the one thing about the spark the original one that was the fact
that it didn't collapse it was super small but unlike the Mavericks it didn't
the arms to collapse arms and legs so I'm hoping the next spark collapses
maybe that's what DJI has in store and they're working on so that's DJI news
now on my channel tomorrow morning I have a very special guest I have a
youtuber a travel youtuber vlogger who has lived a very interesting life and I
sat down and interviewed him for about a half an hour and I think it's a really
really good interview the best I've done so far with anyone else and I'm
releasing that tomorrow morning I'm not gonna tell you who it is yeah so check
that out tomorrow morning net youtuber has close to
400,000 subscribers and I think you'll gain a lot of information as a filmmaker
as a content creator and a drone pilot I think we all can learn from someone like
that so check that video out when it's released I'll put it in the comments
below of this video so you can see it I'm gonna go into the water we'll see
how the DJI Osmo action works in the water it's really hot so might as well
go it's really windy now so I don't know how the audio is but I'm hoping the
audio is pretty decent it's it's quite windy obviously I'm at the beach and
alright guys we're gonna go into the water so you can see how PGI Osmo action
is in the water since we didn't get a drone we got to get something out of
today's video this water is warm to get this hot out you get a hot yet warm
water so alright I had to wear my hat cuz otherwise I get burned but let me
just take it off for a second and go in
