    Beacon & Drone connection and GPS

    password for the beacon is on the back of your beacon. should have a QR code there as well, to make it easier to connect to.

    "incorrect password"

    yes! i don’t manually put in any SSID/password - i just tap to join for every launch - connecting the beacon is an extra step which requires me to open my wifi settings to select the beacon’s SSID. my iphone remembers that password too. but that was the bizarre thing that happened. it just kept...

    Second drone, same problems - Heres the details

    not me. right now, i give it a C+ (phone/beacon combo - about 15 flights). phone with controller i give it an A (so far - 3 flights).

    "incorrect password"

    omg, this recently happened to me when it lost signal. all of my attempts didn’t work. and my skydio was about 15’ above thick brush that was off-camber. i was low on battery too but not low enough for emergency landing. so as it began to land on it’s own, it got closer to me and oddly regained...

    Record Video Without Flying

    Keyframes are crazy amazing!!!

    if it’s just 2 points, i think cable-cam would do the same thing. try putting a few extra points over you roof - that should prevent the hang-up.

    Backpacks/Soft Case/Dual Charger/Controller for Skydio 2

    i’m using the osprey syncro 20, designed for mountain bikers. it’s procey but, fits the the soft case perfect with a little extra room for a couple of layers. good luck.

    Sad first flight

    i agree with dmac, your skydio did an emergency landing due to low battery. you can’t cancel it AND obstacle avoidance is disabled. 😬 this‘ll help you next time… your drone’s return behavior setting is in it’s default setting. to change it, go here. pair your beacon to your skydio with the...

    Beacon vs. App Set Options

    what you’re setting is the drone. so, all of them will carry over.
