Antigravity A1 Explorer Bundle (3 Batteries) – 8K 360 Drone for Immersive Flight, Point-to-Fly Motion Control, Obstacle Avoidance, 249g & Foldable, Deep Track, Auto Return, 10km Range, Auto Edit

Expensive first offering for a promising drone but it needs work.
I purchased this drone on day one of its release and these are a few of my thoughts. First the good, obviously the 360° camera abilities are awesome and unmatched at this point. Recording quality is extraordinary and capturing your footage is made easy since everything is filmed and you can cut and crop later. Another excellent thing about this drone is it’s build quality, nothing flimsy or cheap feeling here. The drone, the goggles, the motion controller and everything else are extremely well built. Now for the bad. First the video transmission from drone to goggles is absolutely terrible. The video is jittery, grainy, and overall a huge disappointment. If you’re coming from DJI drones you’re going to be severely disappointed. This doesn’t affect what you record at all but it’s a problem all the same. Range is another problem with his drone I’ve done some extensive testing and what I found is it’s not necessarily A Range problem but more of an interference problem. I live in a small town and I can get no further than 500 m flying in auto transmission mode without getting warnings, the video breaking up badly, and Signal next to nothing. When taken to the country I took the Drone out almost 3 km and still had full signal so what this tells me is that the manufacturer needs to update the transmission switching software to better accommodate for interference. In another test I flew in town again but this time I set transmission to manual at 2.4 GHz on a channel they had full signal and I had full signal at 500 m whereas before signal was almost completely lost. This is something that might be fixed in a future software update but it definitely needs to be addressed. Another disappointment, as an American owner and flyer I would like the option to use Imperial measurements as opposed to metric. This is the only drone I have ever owned and I’ve owned quite a few different brands that didn’t offer Imperial measurements. It would be nice to know accurately how fast I was flying or the actual distance in something that makes more sense to me. This too could be addressed in a future firmware update. Another downside is the motion controller. While there’s nothing inherently wrong with the motion controller not offering a joystick controller for precise flying to me is a negative. Of course I knew that this drone only had this offering when I purchased but I’ve read where Antigravity A1 will release a joystick controller in the future. Without this to look forward to I would have never purchased this drone. Motion controllers are gimmicky and for novices in my opinion, just don’t prefer them. All in all I guess this could be considered a good first offering from a new company on their first drone. There are problems that need to be addressed that I feel can be worked out in the future but I did expect more considering the $2,000 price tag. I do indeed plan on getting dji’s version which will certainly come more polished and much cheaper. Anti-gravity has some work to do.

Solo travel, no longer lonely thanks to a pair of glasses
I travel alone a lot, and usually, nice views feel a bit flat when you’re just staring at a controller screen. I took this up to a mountain lake recently. Putting the goggles on completely shuts out the world. If you travel solo and want to feel more connected to the places you explore, this changes everything. An awesome, personal escape—highly recommend.

Absolutely Loving This Drone!
I’ve been flying this drone for a few weeks now, and it’s been an amazing experience. The build feels solid, and it performs reliably every time I take it out. It’s super easy to operate—just skim through the manual, and you’ll be ready to go. From my very first flight, I was impressed by how stable and responsive it is.The battery life is right on target; I consistently get about 25 minutes of flight time, which is more than enough for capturing everything I need. The camera quality really stands out—sharp and vibrant, especially in good lighting. As a beginner, I found all the features intuitive and genuinely useful.Overall, this drone has made getting into aerial photography so much fun, and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase!

Drone review
I bought this n one day it took for me to return it super laggy n lost signal mid flight n almost lost it. its got nice features dont get me wrong but in flight doesn’t hold up the goggles have a small delay n im used to DJI fpv n thought this was a step up but no dji has it figure out this One feels like needs more upgrade atleast with the goggles its not as fast n u can tell its struggled to send and adjust the view also the controls wants initiative n didn’t really do wat I wanted the 360 if bad ass but I wanna flight it not just fly still n look around so it’s not ready yet needs more work n upgrades sorry

The goggles totally change the way you fly. It feels much more real than just staring at a screen on a controller or phone. Instead of watching the drone, you feel like you’re actually inside the flight, looking around naturally as you move. Once you’re up in the air, the immersion really pulls you in and makes flying incredibly fun and engaging.

I’ve always loved the way drone footage looks and have wanted to dip my toes in to flying, but there’s just always been too much to really get into it. Spending hours learning the controls and dealing with all the regulations was just too much to slot into my day. And that’s on top of the potentially crashing the thing and having to invest even more into it.The A1 was 100% the drone I was looking for. It’s sub-250, so I don’t need to register it in my country and the controls are so easy that I would really have to try to crash it. The new flight simulator also really helped me get some much-needed practice before flying. Now I take A1 with me everywhere and get the awesome clips and videos I’ve always wanted!

This was my first time using a drone, and I was surprised by how easy it is to use. It’s very beginner-friendly, and I was able to control it confidently within a short time. The flight feels stable and intuitive, which made my first flying experience much less stressful than I expected.The image and video quality are absolutely stunning, much better than I expected. The footage looks very detailed and sharp.One of the most interesting parts for me was using the goggles. It felt very new and exciting, when you turn your head and the camera view moves with you, it really makes you feel connected to the flight. It’s a very immersive experience and something I’ve never tried before.
