Antigravity shook up the drone scene in late July 2025 when it heralded the coming of the world’s first 360-degree drone, the A1. The Insta360-incubated brand took the technology that powers the action camera brand’s flagship device, the Insta360 X5, and strapped it onto a drone. The A1 offers a unique point of view and flying experience, as I witnessed it in Germany in June, when I had the opportunity to fly it.
I’m a big fan of Insta360, so the idea of being able to fly one of the brand’s cameras in the air excited me. Insta360 is not only famous for its cutting-edge camera technology but also for its user-friendly software, which makes editing 360-degree footage comparatively easy. Antigravity taps into both with its new drone.
