Turns out you can dismantle the DJI Spark and it’ll still fly

The thesis of JerryRigEverything’s video is to leave the top cover off, exposing the motherboard, wiring, and fan, and see if the DJI Spark can still fly. Even without the top cover, the Spark still handles everything the same. The subject tracking, GPS, Wi-Fi and camera still worked seamlessly.

Before you get your own ideas, JerryRigEverything specifically mentions that this was a one-time only experiment. Exposing the Spark’s internals can easily lead to damage. As it is, he landed the drone in a dirt field that created a big dust wave, thus coating all the internals with dirt. It would probably only get worse if left uncovered.
