Drone company Antigravity has launched new wrist-and finger-mounted remote controls for the Antigravity A1, allowing users to fly the 360-degree video drone without a headset . These more subtle control options mean users can now capture some very impressive selfie footage without goggles getting in the way.

Antigravity's debut drone could do a lot, combining 360-degree cameras (from parent company Insta360) with POV goggles and a one-handed point-and-fly controller. The A1 was a lot of fun to fly and offered a new way to capture drone video, letting users reframe footage after the fact by cropping into the 360 video to focus on the most interesting action. The company's latest announcement isn't the A2, but a new accessory package it calls the Follow Me bundle. It includes propeller guards, a watch remote and a ring remote, and it's built to offer new hands-free shooting and tracking options. The watch and ring pair adds several new functions to the drone.

Is the war entering a new phase? At least one person has been killed, and five others injured after Ukraine launched more than 1,000 drones at Russia, one of Kyiv's largest aerial strikes in the war. St Petersburg Governor Alexander Beglov said firefighters were battling fires sparked by Sunday's attacks on the St Petersburg oil terminal, the Ruchi oil depot and industrial warehouses in the Kolpinsky district south of the city. The attack disrupted flights at St Petersburg's main airport, one of the country's busiest, which was restricting operations "for safety reasons", Beglov said. Russian e-commerce company Ozon said there was a fire at its logistics hub in St Petersburg.

Why is Starlink internet so important on the battlefield in Ukraine? Starlink satellites operated by Elon Musk's SpaceX provide high-speed internet - something modern war relies heavily on. Kyiv has adopted it as a vital battlefield communications tool and also uses it in drone warfare. Using Starlink, Ukrainian drones are able to maintain stronger connections with operators over longer distances than conventional radio networks and are less vulnerable to jamming. But a sudden speed restriction for drones connected to Starlink means some battlefield missions have been disrupted, according to a top Ukrainian official.
