DJI has introduced its latest gem, the Mini 5 Pro, a drone so compact it can fit in your palm but is as powerful as its larger siblings.

Kirill Neiezhmakov’s latest hyperlapse of Valencia, Spain is a 3 minute thrill ride that shows the city’s dual nature – modern, futuristic skyline meets ancient, historic past.
