Aerial Drone

Mini Aerial Drone: The Spark is a mini-drone that features all of DJI's signature technologies, as well as new technologies currently only found in the Spark. The Spark mini-drone provides intelligent flight control options, automatic obstacle avoidance, a mechanical gimbal, and a high-quality camera for your piloting and photography enjoyment.

Powerful Propulsion with Speed & Precision Control: With its aerodynamic, lightweight, and slick design, the Spark soars through the air with minimal wind resistance. The gimbal and camera are flush with the aircraft significantly increasing stability. Powerful propulsion offers steady flight at up to 31mph (50kph) in Sports mode. Its advanced flight control system means flying is fun and intuitive.

• Max Ascent Speed: 9.8ft/s (3m/s) in Sport mode
• Max Descent Speed: 9.8ft/s ( 3m/s) when using auto landing
• Max Speed: 31mph in Sport mode without wind
• Max Height: 1640 feet

Flight Autonomy: Spark's Flight Autonomy system includes the main camera, vision positioning system (VPS), 3D sensing system, dual-band GPS, high-precision inertial measurement unit, and twenty-four powerful computer cores. This allows the Spark to hover accurately anywhere with VPS assistance at up to 98' (30m) sense obstacles from up to 16' (15m) away, and land safely.

• 3D Sensing System: The Spark is equipped with a 3D Sensing System consisting of a 3D infrared module at the front of the aircraft which scans for obstacles during flight. The 3D Sensing System constantly scans for obstacles, allowing the Spark to avoid obstacles when lighting is sufficient. The aircraft will actively brake when obstacles are detected in front. The Spark will automatically avoid obstacles up to 16' (5m) in front of it with a maximum speed of 6.7mph (10.8kph).
• Vision Position System (VPS): The main components of the Vision System is located on the underside of the aircraft body. This includes a camera and a 3D infrared module. The Vision System uses the 3D infrared module and image data to help the aircraft maintain its current position, enabling precision hovering indoors or in environments where GPS signal is not available.

Flight Modes: The following flights modes are available for the DJI Spark.

• P Mode (Positioning): P Mode works best when the GPS signal is strong. The aircraft utilizes the GPS and Vision System to locate itself, automatically stabilize, and navigate between obstacles. Intelligent Flight Modes such as QuickShot, TapFly and Active Track are enabled in P Mode. Forward Obstacle Sensing is also available in P Mode. The Spark has a maximum flight speed of 13.4 mph (21.6kph) in P mode.
• S Mode (Sport): Sport Mode unleashes the Spark's speed potential, reaching speeds up to 31mph (50kph). The aircraft's responses are optimized for agility and speed making it more responsive to joystick movement. In this mode, the aircraft uses GPS for positioning. Forward obstacle sensing is disabled so the aircraft will not be able to sense and avoid obstacles when in Sport mode. Intelligent Flight Modes, Pano Mode, and ShallowFocus  are not available in Sport mode.

Intelligent Flight Modes: Intelligent Flight Modes and intuitive controls help you create cinematic aerial videos with just a few taps.

• QuickShot: QuickShots helps you shoot amazing footage with a cinematic composition. Choose from Rocket (ascend with the camera pointing downward), Dronie (fly backward and upward with the camera locked on your subject), Circle (circle around your target), Helix (fly upward spiraling around your subject). It will record a video according to the selected shooting mode and then automatically generate a 10-second short video.
• ActiveTrack: With ActiveTrack, Spark automatically recognizes object of different shapes and sizes them tracks them according to what they are and how fast they move. This make tracking a subject much easier and more reliable. Choose between two modes - Trace (track your target from in front or behind, or even circle around it) or Profile (follow your subject from a fixed perspective).
• TapFly: Tap your phone screen and Spark, using vision technology, flies in the direction of your tap or exactly where you tapped while actively sensing obstacles. Capture shot after shot with just your finger tips. Choose between two modes - Direction (keep flying in the direction you tap on the screen) or Coordinate (tap the screen & fly to that spot while maintaining altitude). The aircraft will automatically avoid obstacles it sees or brake and hover in from of them provided that there is sufficient light between <300 lux and >10,000 lux.
• Gesture: Gesture recognition allows you to take aerial selfies with simple hand motions. Choose between a variety of modes - Sefie (raise your arms and wave your hands or make a frame with your fingers to maneuver Spark and shoot selfie photos),  PalmControl (Spark follows your hands movements or even takes off and lands on  your palm), PalmLaunch (using the built-in camera and new FaceAware technology, the Spark lifts off from your hand and hovers in place when it recognizes you), PalmLand (with your face pointed toward the camera, place your had underneath the aircraft and it will slowly descend and land on the palm of your hand), or Beckon (raise  your arms above your head in a Y shape and the aircraft will fly toward you and hover in place).
• Tripod Mode: Tripod Mode limits the mini-drone's maximum speed to just 2.2mph, and the control sensitivity of the remote app is slowed to give you the precision you need for accurate framing. It is also great for flying indoors in small spaces where the mini-drone's normal speed may make it more challenging to fly.

Quick Launch w/ FaceAware: Using the built-in camera and new face detection technology, the Spark lifts off from your hand by recognizing you. It will take off and hover in place within seconds of powering on.

Return To Home: The Spark will return to its home point automatically with sufficient GPS signal. If the battery gets too low, connection is lost, or you hit the Return to Home (RTH) button, the Spark flies back to the preset home point while sensing obstacles in its path. Spark's downward-facing camera captures images of the area surround home point and references these images during RTH for a safe landing.

Flight Protection: DJI's GEO system lets you know where drone flights may raise safety or security concerns, such as near airports or stadiums. This provides the information needed to fly the Spark mini-drone safety and responsible.

Flight Recorder: Flight data is automatically recorded to the internal storage of the aircraft. This includes flight telemetry, aircraft status information, and other parameter. To access this data, connect the aircraft to your computer through the microUSB port and included cable.
