Antigravity
Antigravity is a drone brand incubated by Insta360, the 360-degree camera maker, in collaboration with third-party partners. Its first product, the Antigravity A1, is billed as the world's first drone with a built-in 8K 360-degree camera. Two lenses with 1/1.28-inch sensors sit on the top and bottom of the body, so the drone captures everything around it with no blind spots and the drone itself is stitched out of the final footage, letting owners choose the framing afterwards. The standard A1 weighs 249 grams, or 291 grams with the high-capacity battery, and uses GPS, Galileo and BeiDou positioning. It flies with a Grip controller and Vision goggles with micro-OLED displays that follow head movement. The A1 was unveiled on 14 August 2025 and went on sale on 4 December 2025, earlier than planned, from US$1,599 for the Standard Bundle.
π‘Notable Achievement: Announced on 14 August 2025, the Antigravity A1 is billed as the first drone with a built-in 8K 360-degree camera and weighs 249 grams.
What Does Antigravity Do?
Antigravity is an Insta360-incubated drone brand whose A1 records 8K 360-degree video with two lenses, so the drone disappears from the footage and framing is chosen later.

Antigravity A1
Manufactured by Antigravity
The Antigravity A1 is the worldβs first all-in-one 8K 360-degree camera drone, designed to merge the immersive experience of FPV flight with professional reframing capabilities. Utilizing a unique dual 1/1.28-inch sensor system with top and bottom lenses, it captures every angle of the sky simultaneously, rendering the drone body invisible through advanced real-time stitching technology. Its "headset-first" design, featuring Vision Goggles with dual 2.5K Micro-OLED displays and the one-handed Grip motion controller, allows pilots to explore their surroundings with head-tracking while maintaining a stable flight path. With a sub-250g weight for regulatory ease and powerful "fly first, frame later" software integration, the A1 redefines aerial storytelling for creators seeking unparalleled creative freedom.
