DJI has just teased its upcoming FPV drone with the tagline “Above It All, See It All.”

Although the company has not officially revealed the full specifications yet, multiple leaks and industry reports suggest that the DJI Avata 360 could become one of the most innovative drones DJI has ever released.

For FPV pilots, aerial filmmakers, and drone enthusiasts, this drone could fundamentally change how we capture aerial footage.

Here’s everything we currently expect from the Avata 360.

A 360° Camera Drone for FPV Pilots

The biggest feature hinted at by the teaser is full 360-degree video capture.

Leaks suggest the drone will include dual image sensors capturing spherical video, allowing pilots to record everything around the drone at once.

Instead of worrying about framing the perfect shot during flight, pilots will be able to:

• Fly first
• Choose the camera angle later
• Reframe shots in post-production

This approach is already popular with action cameras like the Insta360 series, but bringing it to a cinewhoop-style FPV drone could unlock completely new creative possibilities.

For example, from a single flight you could generate:

• Traditional cinematic shots
• Orbit shots
• Follow shots
• Vertical social media clips
• Dramatic FPV perspectives

All from the same recording.

8K 360° Video Recording

Rumors suggest the Avata 360 may support 8K 360° HDR video at up to 60fps, which would place it among the most advanced consumer drones in terms of immersive capture.

To achieve this, leaks indicate the drone could use dual 1/1.1-inch sensors capable of high-resolution spherical capture.

This level of resolution is important because 360 footage is typically cropped and reframed during editing, meaning higher resolution ensures the final footage remains sharp.

For drone filmmakers, that means:

• One flight can produce multiple camera angles
• Less pressure on framing during aggressive FPV flights
• Greater flexibility in post-production

Hybrid Drone: 360 Mode + Traditional FPV

One of the most interesting rumored features is a dual shooting mode.

According to leaks, the Avata 360 could include a tiltable camera module, allowing it to switch between:

360 Mode

• Records full spherical video

FPV Mode

• Uses a single forward-facing lens similar to the Avata 2

This would allow pilots to use the drone as both:

• a 360 camera platform
  a traditional FPV cinewhoop

Essentially combining two filming tools into one drone.

Expected Flight Features

While DJI has not confirmed the specs yet, leaks suggest the Avata 360 will retain many features that FPV pilots expect from the Avata lineup.

Possible features include:

Cinewhoop design

• Fully enclosed prop guards for safe indoor flying

4-blade propellers

• Improved thrust and efficiency compared to the Avata 2

improved battery

• As stated only days ago. The battery of the Avata 360 will not only be more powerful than the DJI Avata 2, it will also be bigger but: cheaper! 

Obstacle sensors

• Possibly 4–6 sensors on the front for improved safety

O4 transmission system

• Low latency video transmission for FPV goggles

Compatibility

• DJI Goggles 3
• DJI Goggles N3
• DJI Motion Controller 3
  DJI RC 2 Remote Controller

These features could make the drone accessible to both beginners and experienced FPV pilots.

Expected Price in Europe

Based on leaked bundle pricing, the Avata 360 could be one of DJI’s most affordable new drones in years.

Estimated prices converted to EUR:

Leaks suggest the base drone could start around $499, with a full combo reaching about $1,200, which converts roughly to the Euro estimates above.

If these prices are accurate, DJI may be positioning the Avata 360 as a relatively affordable entry into 360 aerial filmmaking.

Release Date

Official launch is set top March 2026

DJI had already begun teasing the drone earlier this year, which typically happens before the official launch event.

So the day we have been waiting for finally is near.

Why the Avata 360 Could Change Drone Filming

For years, FPV pilots have had to focus heavily on camera framing during flight.

The Avata 360 could change that workflow completely.

Instead of worrying about pointing the camera perfectly, pilots could simply focus on flying creatively while the drone records the entire environment.

This opens the door for:

• more aggressive FPV flying
• fewer missed shots
• new storytelling techniques
• easier content creation for social media

For aerial filmmakers, it could mean one flight producing an entire sequence of shots.

Final Thoughts

If the leaks are accurate, the DJI Avata 360 could represent one of the biggest innovations in FPV drones in recent years.

By combining:

• FPV flight
• cinematic drone filming
• and 360 video capture

DJI might be creating a completely new category of drone.

The teaser message “Above It All, See It All” suggests exactly that: total freedom in the air and total control during editing.

And for creators, that’s a powerful combination.
