- The S26 Ultra could have a battery with a capacity of 5,200 mAh
- This would be a slight increase over the 2025 model.
- An earlier leak indicated that the battery capacity would remain the same.
DJI is expected to soon launch its first 360-degree camera drone to compete directly with the Insta360 Antigravity A1, and a new leak gives us some clues as to when the DJI model might hit the market.
It should be called DJI Avata 360 DroneXL discovered that the flying car has just received approval from the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC).
However, a ban on DJI equipment may be imminent in the US, which could take effect as early as Tuesday, December 23. This will happen unless the US government specifically approves DJI technology as a license.
With this in mind, the DroneXL team estimates that DJI will try to bring the 360-degree drone to market before December 23rd; otherwise it will not be available in the US. In other words, the DJI Avatar 360 could hit the market at any time.
Expected specifications
Insta360 has already presented the Antigravity A1
So far, some key specifications of the drone have been revealed, both from the FCC document and other sources. It looks like we’re getting a 38.67Wh (14.32V) battery, which would mean a 26% increase in capacity compared to the DJI Avata 2.
The camera system is expected to have two 1/1.1-inch CMOS sensors, which will enable 360-degree 8K video recording at 50 frames per second. Standard 4K/120fps video and 38MP panoramas are also available.
Four sensors on the front and two sensors on the side are designed to avoid obstacles and allow the drone to track moving objects. In terms of connectivity, the OcuSync 4.0 technology will apparently enable a range of up to 20 kilometers (12.4 miles).
All of this should be official soon, although there is still a lot of uncertainty surrounding DJI in the US. We have written a detailed explanation of what the ban may mean for new and existing DJI products.
