Antigravity unveils A1, an 8K 360 drone

Antigravity, the project recently announced by Insta360, announced its first product, Antigravity A1, due in January, 2026. Antigravity claims the AI is the world’s first drone “equipped with 8K 360-degree capture.”

At the heart of Antigravity A1 is a dual-lens camera system that captures everything around it in 360 degrees. The lenses are mounted on the top and bottom of the drone’s fuselage, enabling complete environmental capture with no blind spots. Advanced stitching technology renders the drone invisible when viewed through the goggles and in the final footage. The result is an immersive, clean video that places drone pilots directly inside the scene without distractions. Weighing only 249g, Antigravity A1 meets regulatory requirements in most countries and regions.

With Antigravity’s FreeMotion technology and responsive head tracking, pilots can look freely in any direction while flying the drone using hand gestures. This separates flying the drone from viewing the surroundings, allowing pilots to look in one direction while flying in another.

Antigravity A1 is built to fit into everyday life. Its dual-lens setup mirrors the capabilities of Insta360’s popular X Series, making it easy for anyone to capture stunning 8K 360 footage — this time in the sky.

Every angle is recorded, giving creators the power to reframe their footage in post and make sure they never miss a shot. This enables powerful new editing possibilities like dynamic camera moves, Tiny Planet effects, and horizon flips. Creating cinematic FPV-style footage is now more accessible than ever. This technology also allows users to export multiple angles from a single clip in any aspect ratio without losing quality.

Antigravity A1 is built with simplicity in mind. Pilots fly using the Grip controller, which responds to natural hand movements, eliminating the need for traditional stick controls. Paired with the Vision goggles, users can freely explore their surroundings in real time with full 360-degree visibility. To ensure that Antigravity A1 is used solely for exploration and storytelling, it includes a payload detection to prevent misuse or unauthorized modifications.

“We didn’t want to just build another drone. We wanted to create an entirely new way to fly,” said BC Nie, Head of Marketing at Antigravity. “A1 is the first step in reimagining flight as something anyone can enjoy — something that is safe, intuitive, expressive, and endlessly creative.”
