Lily Drone Generates 50 Million but then ...
After generating almost $50 million in funding and pre-sales, Lily is shutting down in wake of litigation that concluded their too-good-to-be-true demo video was not even shot on the Lily.
The District Attorney also alleged that other parts of the advertisement that consumers were led to be believe were shot by Lily, were instead taken by a DJI Inspire. Lily spokesperson Kelly Coyne only said that that it had taken many shoots to create the clips for the advertisement, and that the drone had been improved with different parts that would not be in the market device when it shipped. She failed to mention the use of GoPros or the Inspire. Doesn't seem like they are answering their facebook posts now :(
