What changed
FLUX 3 Action is a 7B diffusion transformer world action model that takes camera frames, a robot state vector and a text instruction, and outputs 32 future actions plus optional predicted video frames. It uses a video VAE and Qwen3-VL-4B as the frozen instruction encoder, and was pretrained on multi-embodiment robot data. Black Forest Labs reports a DROID fine-tune ranks first on RoboLab-120 at 42.92% success, ahead of the 16B Cosmos3-Nano-Policy at 36.8%.
Access and availability
Base weights are on Hugging Face at black-forest-labs/flux-3-action-base (gated, requires accepting terms) under the FLUX Kommunity License v1.0, with DROID and SO-101 checkpoints via LeRobot and code at github.com/black-forest-labs/flux-action.
Official access documentationWhat you can build
Use FLUX 3 Action through the LeRobot integration to fine-tune a robotics policy for your own robot arm or test it in simulation through NVIDIA Isaac Sim before deploying on hardware.
Limitations
Black Forest Labs says the base is an adaptation component rather than a complete robot policy, so new embodiments need their own action heads and fine-tuning. Nothing in the model bounds joint velocity, force or workspace, so applications must enforce safety limits. The license's commercial terms are unclear, and Black Forest Labs has published no latency figures.
