Marques Brownlee Takes Antigravity A1 for a Test Flight
2026/07/01If you're a tech enthusiast, you've probably come across Marques Brownlee while following the latest developments on the internet. As one of the world’s most recognizable tech creators, he has even been called the "Creator of the Decade" for his polished and approachable reviews. In a recent collaboration with Antigravity, Marques put the Antigravity A1 through its paces, showing off the drone's advanced features and sharing his impressions.
Antigravity A1: A New Take on Drones
"JUST A STRAIGHT-UP FUN EXPERIENCE"
To kick things off, Marques highlights the drone’s 8K 360 capture and the incredibly immersive flight experience, likening the 2.5K view through the Vision Goggles to a bird flying through the environment.
The drone's unique capture method also addresses what he sees as one of drones' biggest weaknesses: battery life.
With a traditional drone, creators have to get the shot in real time — maintaining perfect framing and precise flight control all while racing against the clock. The ability to reframe your shots in post-production eases that anxiety and lets creators simply enjoy the experience of flight.
He also showcased A1's ease of use, demonstrating his very first time using FPV mode by weaving through a patch of tightly packed trees before effortlessly darting through a narrow V-shaped gap between two trunks. The wry smile on his face after pulling off the maneuver says it all. In his estimation, new pilots could reach a similar level of confidence within just an hour thanks to the A1's intuitive controls.
Marques summed up his time with the A1 simply: to him, drones have always been great tools for capturing aerial footage, but the A1is a joy to fly and "a genuinely new, interesting take" on drones.
