DJI AVATA 360 Leak: Low pricing, replaceable lenses, next teaser date

For everyone waiting on the DJI Avata 360; you are in for a surprise and you are going to be spoiled in the coming weeks. DJI is setting things up to absolutely destroy the competition (Antigravity A1) and the prices aren’t lying about that. DJI is not only changing the game price wise, but also changing their tactics for launching their drones. Let me spill some beans…

1. Exclusive leak: DJI Avata 360 Intelligent Flight Battery will cost only 70 euro.

Although DJI is doing everything to stay under the radar, today I received information that the Avata 360 Intelligent flight battery will cost approximately 70 dollars/euro. Compared to the 100 dollar/euro batteries of the DJI Avata 2 (which had a capacity of 31.8wh) it’s a pretty serious deal for the new 38.6wh battery of the Avata 360.

This price leak confirms earlier reported pricing on the Avata 360 combos. Which will be extremely competitive for the Antigravity A1 drone.

2. Source confirms Avata 360 will have REPLACEABLE LENSES.

Next on the received price list my eye spotted this other thing: The DJI Avata 360 will come with a 50 euro “Lens Kit” including 2 replaceable lenses and some tools. Did you scratch a lens while crashing the drone or in a bad landing? You will be able to unscrew the lens and simply pop on another one for around 25 euro.

3. Avata 360 Box picture or AI?

In a world full of AI videos and pictures everybody is able to ‘create’ new images, so sometimes it takes me a minute to find the ‘real thing’. My tactic is to NOT show you anything I believe is fake. But when I find something interesting I obviously will share it with you.

This bring me to the picture above. I do believe this is the actual drone AND box (backside) of the DJI Avata 360. Previous “leaked” boxes all had bad cropping of the propellers and some even had the Goggles 3 on it. Well those can’t be true because the Avata 360 will only come with the Goggles N3. As seen in one of the official PROMO pictures (below)

4. DJI’s new plan of attack: Affordable quality.

Let me share an obvious secret with you and be very clear: DJI is planning to destroy every other competitor in the drone sector by becoming very affordable. The DJI Avata 360 will be so affordable nobody will even contemplate to buy an Antigravity. The drone will perfectly fit in their DJI Ecosystem and this means it will smoothly work with your existing remotes and the cheap goggles, it will probably follow you autonomously as good as the Neo 2 (not sure on that one yet) and it will only be double the price of a DJI Neo 2. If you still prefer the Antigravity A1 over this you must be a big Skydio fan.

So is the DJI Avata 360 a no-brainer?

Short answer: not really, the 360 is awesome but for the average consumer it will suck that it weighs almost 400 grams and you won’t be able to fly it without some paperwork, not close to people and away from your favourite places. Content creators will love it though.

5. Launching soon, but first we will have more DJI Avata 360 teaser videos incoming on March 12th.

This bring me to a bigger secret DJI has for all of us. DJI has changed tactics and they are now planning to release multiple videos in the coming weeks. Some say it’s to ‘stop leakers’ and ‘enable YouTubers’ to get in on the news cycle pre launch. With this secret info I was also told another DJI Avata 360 teaser is set for March 12. We haven’t seen this before, so keep your eyes open!
