DJI Spark Video Leak Released

Images are one thing, but now we’re even getting video of the new DJI Spark drone. Nobody knows for sure but, based on the stickers placed all over it, I’m going to assume that this is a prototype. In any case, there’s no charger, propellers or controller in the video, so this guy had to solder a lipo battery directly to the power connector to get it to start up. Looking at the gimbal this video confirms that it will only have 2 axes, and there’s no IR light on the side of the lens as some people thought. There could still be a sensor there, but who knows.

Looking at the bottom of the drone, you can see that there are no ultrasonic sensors. Instead, there are two black circles which I think could be a LIDAR sensor.
