            The Phantom has a range of 1000 meters out of the box, that is 10 times the Spark's range for the base models. The Phantom 3 also has a longer flight time than the Spark. The Phantom 3 can fly for a maximum of 25 minutes. The Spark is limited to only 16 minutes of flight time.Jun 20, 2017
