Antigravity officially marked the Philippine debut of Antigravity A1, the world’s first all-in-one 8K
360 drone, during a one-day pop-up showcase at BGC High Street on December 13. The
event marked the first public appearance of the groundbreaking drone in the country, bringing
together members of the media, filmmakers, and key opinion leaders for an exclusive preview of
a new era in immersive aerial storytelling.
Antigravity A1 introduces a new class of drones designed around immersive 360 capture and intuitive control that are built to redefine how people experience flight. Instead of focusing solely on traditional piloting, A1 delivers a seamless, expressive flying experience that allows creators to stay present in the moment while capturing every angle in the air.

Antigravity A1 – A New Way to Experience Flight
Unlike conventional drones, Antigravity A1 is built around a headset-first flying experience, where the Vision Goggles and Grip controller are central to how users interact with the drone. Through intuitive point-to-fly motion control, pilots can steer naturally using hand movements, significantly lowering the learning curve while maintaining precision and control. For experienced pilots, classic FPV control remains available, allowing A1 to grow with the user’s skills.
Paired with high-resolution Micro-OLED displays and real-time head tracking, the system delivers a deeply immersive sense of flight rather than simply operating a camera in the air.
8K 360 Capture, Fly First and Frame Later
At the heart of A1 is a dual-lens camera system capable of capturing 8K 360 video, recording the entire environment in a single flight. This allows creators to fly first and frame later, selecting angles and perspectives during post-production without worrying about missed shots or complex gimbal adjustments.
Advanced stabilization keeps footage smooth and steady, even in challenging conditions, giving creators greater freedom to focus on movement, storytelling, and creative expression.
Compact, Compliant, and Creator-Ready
The Antigravity A1 weighs only 249 grams, meeting the sub-250g regulations in many regions. This would make it easier for Antigravity A1 users to travel with and operate responsibly. Despite its compact size, it delivers up to 24 minutes of flight time, extendable with optional high-capacity batteries.
A retractable landing gear system protects the camera lenses during takeoff and landing while maintaining an unobstructed view for signature invisible-drone shots.
Live Demonstration at BGC High Street
During the BGC High Street pop-up, filmmaker Sid Maderazo shared his hands-on experience with the Antigravity A1 and conducted the first live demo flight in the Philippines. Attendees witnessed a live demo flight that showcased Antigravity A1’s immersive 360 flight experience and intuitive control system in real-world conditions. The demonstration highlighted how the drone lowers the barrier to flight while still offering advanced creative control for experienced users.
“At Antigravity, we innovate with end users’ needs in mind,” said Henry Hsu, Principal Consultant at Insta360. “We see ourselves as an industry challenger—constantly pushing boundaries to become a true game changer. With A1, we’re introducing a completely new way to experience flight that is immersive, intuitive, and creatively freeing.”
