DJI has just launched its latest camera drone for consumers but this time around, it’s not a convoluted toy but rather a selfie drone.

The DJI Spark is an easy-to-use mini camera drone and also the first drone to be controlled by hand gestures. It features new advanced gesture controls like PalmControl, which lets users control Spark with hand movements. You can simply send off the drone to take your selfie and call back using hand gestures.

Pricing starts at USD499 (~Php25k) for the basic package including the drone, a battery, a USB charger and three pairs of propellers. A Spark Fly More Combo is available for USD699 (~Php35k) which includes the drone, two batteries, four pairs of propellers, a remote controller, propeller guards, a charging hub, a shoulder bag and all necessary cables.

Spark will be available for pre-order at store.dji.com, authorized dealers, and flagship stores in mid-June. It will be available in five different colors: Alpine White, Sky Blue, Meadow Green, Lava Red, and Sunrise Yellow.
