I don't see any wheels, I bet it's controlled by a yoke or stick, it has 4 copters.

This is a drone, not a car

You can only call it a drone if it's from the Droné region of France.

This is just a sparkling quadcopter.

A drone is an unmanned vehicle, e.g. SpaceX drone boats serving as mobile landing pads, Ukrainian drone boats carrying explosives, drone research submarines, ground drones for mine defusal, etc.

This is definitely not a drone. It's a quadcopter.
