Antigravity A1 Who is it suitable for?
If you need to create VR content, panoramic videos, travel documentaries, or projects that require a complete scene presentation, the Antigravity A1 is the answer. One shot, multiple angle outputsIt can greatly enhance the creativity of a film.
Is a weight of 249 grams and a battery life of 24 minutes really reasonable?
Antigravity A1 重量僅 249 克，在消費級無人機市場中屬於「超輕量級」。多數主流無人機（如 DJI Air 系列、FPV 系列）通常都落在 430–900 克之間，因此 249 克不僅能在許多國家免註冊飛行，也讓The Antigravity A1 is a portable 360° drone that is more suitable for beginners and travel vloggers.
However, its battery life is only 24 minutesIt is indeed a bit short. If it's for recording short videos or vlogs, 24 minutes is generally enough. But if your needs lean towards:
- Long-duration aerial photography
- The entire long take needs to be filmed in one take.
Then 24 minutes might not be enough.
Motion control vs. traditional remote control
It flies wherever you point it, even beginners can easily get started.
The Antigravity A1 supports the new Grip motion-sensing grip controller, which allows for intuitive flight maneuvers such as "side-flying camera movement," "circling camera movement," and "skyward camera movement" through human body movements, along with mechanical scroll wheels for fine-tuning of heading. This control method is indeed innovative and more immersive, but there are still some limitations in the actual experience.
- The operation is intuitive, and even beginners can quickly get started.
- The camera movement experience is more free and more creative.
- The combination of 360° imaging creates a more immersive and lifelike experience.
- The accuracy is not as high as that of traditional remote controls.
- Prolonged hand-raising operation can cause fatigue
- It's difficult to take pictures in windy or complex environments.
For a more traditional operating experience and clearer image, choose a DJI traditional remote control.
For free composition and an immersive shooting experience, choose Antigravity motion control.

If you have high requirements for "battery life",Explorer Set It's a good choice.The
Antigravity memory card
The A1 supports SDXC, UHS-I, V30, or higher specifications, in exFAT format. Maximum capacity: 1TB.
It can be kept consistent with the Insta360 Ace Pro 2 action camera.
The memory card specifications used in drones mainly depend on the drone's positioning and shooting needs. The core focus should be on three key dimensions: "physical type, speed level, and capacity." The specification requirements vary significantly in different scenarios. Most drones on the market (such as the DJI Air series and Mini series) have different specifications.All of them use microSD cards (also known as TF cards) as the mainstream standard.Antigravity A1 also remains consistent.The
The 256GB Lexar memory card is highly recommended. It can be purchased directly from both DJI and Insta360's official websites, which also proves that the two major brands recognize its quality.

I personally feel that the hardware configuration of the DJI Avata 360 is also quite forward-thinking.Because its lens uses a mechanical gimbal design, it can be tilted or rotated according to the user's needs. According to leaks, the Avata 360 even supports shooting with a single lens in FPV mode, effectively giving it the dual identity of a traditional FPV drone and a 360° panoramic drone, thus broadening its application range. As for the price of the Avata 360, it is predicted to be between 1099 and 1299 USD; DJI has not yet released any information.
Conclusion
The emergence of the new category of "360° panoramic drone" breaks the functional boundaries between traditional action cameras and drones, enabling shooting experiences that neither can cover and expanding into richer usage scenarios.
It is obvious that DJI and Insta360 will engage in fierce competition across multiple product lines in 2026. DJI holds a market share of over 70% in the drone market, while Insta360 is the absolute champion in the panoramic camera field. After securing their positions at the top of their respective tracks, both leading manufacturers have chosen to launch attacks on each other's areas of strength.
As a review blogger, I will conduct in-depth testing and then analyze the core differences and strengths and weaknesses of the two products in detail. I hope that through objective and detailed content, I can help you accurately "choose the right" product that truly matches your needs.
