SKYDIO 2 - GETTING STARTED WITH BASICS

Get to know the new Skydio 2. This tutorial video will walk you through some of the basic features of your flying robot film crew.

Skydio 2 combines groundbreaking artificial intelligence with a best-in-class 4k60HDR camera, 3.5 kilometers of wireless range, and 23 minutes of flight time in a drone that fits anywhere you can carry a 13” laptop. For experienced pilots, Skydio 2 makes every aspect of flying drones more creative, more fun, more useful, and less stressful. But it’s also capable of flying itself with the skills of an expert pilot, opening up the power and magic of aerial capture to new audiences.

Skydio 2 is built around the Skydio Autonomy Engine - the most advanced flying artificial intelligence system in the world. It sees in every direction with six 4K cameras, maps and understands the world around it, predicts into the future, and makes intelligent decisions that let it smoothly fly around obstacles while capturing amazing videos and photos. All this intelligence has a profound effect on what it’s like to fly Skydio 2 and what it can do for you.

With its category-defining autonomous person and car tracking, Skydio 2 enables you to capture everything from a backyard pickup game to a downhill adventure with a single tap. It builds on Skydio R1’s foundation and takes it to the next level, with tracking speeds up to 36 miles per hour, and a new planning algorithm focused on cinematic capture. It delivers stunning, dynamic footage that must be seen to be believed.

Skydio 2 is the result of over a decade of R&D by a world class team that spans AI, robotics, cameras, and electric vehicles. It’s designed and manufactured at our headquarters in Redwood City, California and it’s backed by a simple promise: if you’re flying Skydio 2 within our safe operating guidelines and it crashes, we’ll repair or replace it. For any issue, big or small, our customer support team works down the hall from the engineering team and we are here to help.

Simply letting my subscribers know I will have the Skydio 2 soon and hopefully bring some interest to new subscribers along the way. Thank you and happy flying!

Thanks for having a non-4-letter word A+ for THAT alone!

I'm really excited and can not wait !!!

The collision avoiding AI on this just on a whole other level. Makes DJI look like Zino, basically :P

What happens if you loose signal. Does it return to home like the DJI drones do.

Very helpful video, but you jumped straight from charging the battery to flying, with no pairing or connecting of anything. That's the stage I'm at this morning, figuring out how to connect it all.

Hi Chris thanks for showing the skydio2 drone it looks fantastic, but it also looks very expensive . Do you know the price or as the price been not put out yet. Thanks

The drone is impressive no doubt, but having to buy the parrot anafi controller separately and that brings it up to almost $1250.

It could be a contender to do some damage to dji but their production capacity is greatly limited, currently only orders being taken from us\canada and last i read they've stopped taking orders until next year. Until they are able to massively ramp up production and be capable of global sales then dji will still remain dominant.

From everything I have seen this is going to be a very nice drone, especially for active people that want a drone to follow them through all kinds of terrain. I am looking forward to people getting theirs in November and posting reviews! I sincerely hope it does great. The main thing I hear concerns about now, before it is even out, is its range. We will see. Thanks, Tom

Hi Chris I’ve reading about skydio 2 and unfortunately they only delivering in the USA and Canada, never mind they might deliver UK-Ireland and Europe at later date.

[sxsmarine]

Hope they make a better way to charge the batteries

[omniexistus]

alright not bad but the drone was just tracking people through fairly open areas? it needs to be truly tested in more densely forested areas

[jamminjimmykaraoke]

a very nice drone i don't like how the controllers are an optional extra £999 plus £300 for both controllers if you want them as good as the drone is way too expensive

[GorillamansGarage]

Just overly expensive for the hobbyist. I'll be a firm pass on this one. But I could see myself going for the Mavic Mini on pre-order day :)
