    New Skydio owner in Florida

    Welcome. I am a rookie drone owner. First was a bebop. I wasn’t overly impressed. Considering the price I was satisfied. Never had a fly away. The death came when at 80 ft high the battery fell out. A little super glue and it still flys. Too bad the app doesn’t work with new phones. Skydio has...

    Skydio or NOT??? Hearing about runaway drones.

    Hi Edward, First, I am not a commercial pilot. I use my Skydio for fun and documenting life. I have never had a fly away.

    Return Skydio2 for 2+

    I had the same thoughts. So I submitted to support a request to upgrade to the 2+ pro. Original drone was shipped 12/14. Received on 12/23. Concerned if they will upgrade because the order was placed on 12/2. Fingers crossed.

    Hello from Champaign Il

    First flight SUCCESS ! ! ! Started off with the beacon. Really spooky. Prior to this we had to be the pilot and photographer. Now you select a target and a few options and done. I obviously need to learn more before it becomes intuitive to operate. Second flight with remote. Performs well...

    3D scan user please share some info with us!

    I am new at trying to figure out software requirements. Seems about three different software packages may be required. Cant drone deploy do the same? Maybe not as good? Or is it that you need pilot skills/planning to accomplish.

    Dotman finish the story? Did you pay up? I called prior to purchasing. You are correct they want big customers. My thought is find a company(ies) that have partnered already. Contact them. Subcontract me. I fly they do the post process etc.
