The release date for the Antigravity A1 has been moved up to December 4th, based on what they have been posting on social media.



When can we expect the antigravitypilots.com site to go live

Clearly they are responding to recent DJI rumors of the Avata 360 FCC now and release next month. Sounds like they were hoping DJI wouldn't make the cutoff but here we are. Anyway, the AG drones sounds like it's pretty cool, will be great to see the head to head.

Nice find; that is likely more expensive than the DJI but I guess the Bundle has controllers, goggles....the works.

I would not believe that price,as it is still locked out from view.

Already in the store; think I will stop by on Friday and take a look:

I think this drone will be a big disappointment, kind of like my 360 camera has been for me for getting decent shots
of far away objects.

The 360 camera technology is not meant for far away objects

Looks like there is no controller, only a headset. Without a controller it’s a hard sell for those of us who fly legally. Realistically, how many pilots will fly with a visual observer. Not many.

The specs show

“What's Included​

1x Antigravity A1 Drone, 1x Antigravity Vision Goggles, 1x Antigravity Grip Motion Controller”

From what I see you cannot use the motion controller without the goggles. I do not see any traditional DJI type controller with screen and sticks.

I didn’t explain clearly. The controller shown can only be used with goggles (presumably). There is no DJI type basic controller to fly without goggles. Hence the requirement for visual observer for any flight.

Right no DJI type controller to fly it.

Traditional controller, maybe.

Anyone here ordered one or planning to yet?

Some of the Best Buys here in Los Angeles have limited stock available for pick-up today. I'm going to wait for reviews and user feedback before pulling the trigger. As an alternative, the Avata 2 is half the price and seems like a more robust drone but it is not sub-250 grams like the A1.

The AG A1 drone is still too new; I'd stick to DJI for now and wait to see what the A2 3 or 4 does
