Unboxing DJI Spark Drone
I took Michael down to Roberts Camera in Indianapolis and persuaded him to part with some of the studio's equipment fund and look at possibly a lens for the Fujifilm X-T1, a durable tripod or possibly a drone. We came away with the DJI Spark as Michael wanted to get move up a couple of notches from his previous drone (an inexpensive practice drone) to a more mid-level and mid-cost version.
Roberts Camera is one of our favorite places to shop even though we have to drive 3 hours to get there. Their staff has always been knowledgeable and helpful to us, and they let us wonder around for hours without kicking us out.

This is the drone you are looking for.Michael got the white one since they did not have a purple one, although the blue one if they had it would have been nice also.
What else comes in the box?Here is the USB cable and the battery charger which has 3 slots but you only get 2 batteries in the kit.
