    Controller Issues

    In my case, it was a bad controller. They replaced it and the replacement worked perfectly.

    Bad Gimbal?

    Or did they ask for logs? Seems they don't need follow-up flights. I would think the logs would suffice. I'm still waiting for the promised software update that will fix my issue. It's kinda like the shipping issues... they give dates and promises and miss them. Still waiting. I need to do some...

    Bad Gimbal?

    So I've had a bit of back and forth with support... they got my logs and say the engineers found a bug that will be fixed in a software update later this month. But if I'm needing a solution sooner, they can swap my drone. So when I pressed them about the fact that if this was a software issue...

    Bad Gimbal?

    It's only been a day or two... over the weekend. I suspect they don't work over the weekend :) I'm just checking in to see if this has been a serial problem or just me.

    Even more range from the skydio 2... 1.22 miles (6441 feet)

    I'm not sure of the point of 1+ mile range (and not really what this drone is made for, but I agree they should not claim a range that's clearly not possible). My complaint is that I often lose signal in the 400-500 foot range with no obstacles. That's concerning to me. When I can see my drone...

    Bad Gimbal?

    Folks, I've been flying my Skydio for six or so weeks, now, and I am wondering if anyone else has seen the terribly unstable video that I do. I've seen this from day one and it bothered me but it was a bit windy when flying (~15 mph winds) but this happens when calm and when flying in any...

    So do you find that the gimbal is as good as DJI? My Skydio is not. If I hover the horizon boobs up and down and I get a bit seasick. I am going to do more testing, but several days of playing and this happens every time. Even while flying in a straight line it's noticable. Curious if others...

    Remote ID and Skydio 2 - should we worry?

    It's worse than that. You will not be able to fly anywhere but designated hoby areas oif you don't have even limited secure ID (and there is no way this will have anything but that). But in three years, who cares. Seriously. And if you believe that there are only 150,000 people in the USA...

    Batch 1 people

    And on the 19th of December, I completed my order which included a pro case. Mine still has not shipped. Seems they are waiting for everything that was back ordered to arrive before shipping any of it to me. Skydio is really not making folks happy with their inability to fulfill orders. They...

    Update on Skydio Telemetry

    And it works... and shows, clearly, how "slow" the drone is to respond to commands from the phone (when flying as a controller; like for visual inspection). Hopefully, the controller will be more responsive. The problem is that when I say "go up" and then release the command when it's at, say...

    Controller Issues

    Thanks. That's what I tried. I get no indicator light on mine anymore (it used to flash orange but no longer does anything). Looks like I have a dead one, it seems. But we'll see if support has any ideas if I can resurrect it in some way.

    Controller Issues

    Possibly... I already have an open case with CS, but with the holidays I suspect I won't hear back for a while.

    Controller Issues

    I just received my Skydio 2 and controller. The controller seems to be dead. The green light indicating a full charge is on, but nothing else works on the controller. The light that's supposed to flash on the top of the unit does not, and plugging it into the drone to pair it does nothing...

    And I just got my "Complete Your Order Now" email at 8:34 PM PDT on December 19th.

    Batch 1 people

    Thanks! So that's 5:15 PM PDT. Knowing this, and knowing you said you got the email a few hours after placing the order, I'll let everyone do the math. I've been told I'm being too hard on Skydio so I'll not state the obvious, here... ;-) (For the record, I received my confirmation email...
