With the launch of the Avata 360, DJI has officially entered the 360º drone market. The new model has been teased by the brand for weeks, and rumours have circulated for months, but even with all that, the final product still surprised everyone, including the brand's fans.
DJI’s take on the concept follows the release of Insta360-incubated Antigravity’s A1, the first 360-degree drone ever. It was launched in December 2025, and offered a new take on piloting, thanks to its clever camera mechanism and “shoot first, edit later” approach borrowed from action cameras like the Insta360 X5.
