    Something big is coming...

    I am pretty certain it has nothing to do with new drone. The confirmation I received back after registering for the Dec 7th release, said it was ‘Dock Day’. If you watch the teaser video it show a enclosed dock unit that opens on a drawer mechanism and then shows a Skydio flying out of it...

    Glad to hear it had a happy ending!

    Skydio 2+ went for a swim

    Skydio is not replacing mine. See my post above that contains response from Skydio. Told me it was my fault flying over water. Another $550. Not happy.

    Skydio 2+ went for a swim

    I also want to point out that Billy’s Skydio was replaced under warranty. As far as I am concerned I had the same situation. I had no control of the drone and it did this on its own. Just like Billy did in this video. So why then is my situation different?

    Skydio 2+ went for a swim

    From Skydio. Not happy to say the least. I think it is very unfortunate that the warranty is invalid in ‘Autonomy’ flight. Especially when that is how Skydio markets the drone, ‘Autonomous’????????? Thanks for your patience during this process. After a thorough review of the flight data and...

    Skydio 2+ went for a swim

    Not a good day today. Still in bit of a shock. My Skydio 2+ is in a Florida lake tonight😭 This evening on way home from work I went to do some flying of the Skydio as I had not used it in a few weeks. I wanted to cycle the batteries. I got through one flight of about 20 minutes and put in...

    Anyone get shipping info yet?

    If you purchased the flight assurance option they don’t ship that. It’s just noted on your account. So that is why it is marked partial shipment on your order. You will receive the S2 and upgrade package all as one shipment. I assume it will always show as partially shipped on the Shop app as...

    Maiden flight went great

    Great feedback and videos! Glad to hear of your experience. I have been flying DJI for 10+ years. This is first time flying Skydio 2 and the best way to describe it to others is ‘it is just fun!’

    UPDATE: I received hand controller today as promised. I also received a tracking number for the S2+ with delivery on the 26th. All good!

    Anyone get shipping info yet?

    Update: I finally spoke with Skydio this evening. They told me that my S2+ (ordered on Jan 5) was released for shipment on January 14. Last Friday when most of yours shipped as well. However Skydio did not know if it went out or not. They have no tracking number for the S2+. If it did not...

    Anyone get shipping info yet?

    Glad there are many of you receiving your shipments! I on the other hand am a bit frustrated. I ordered the S2+ with sports package. Today is business day 9 and order still just shows completed. Sent email to Skydio three days ago asking for update and no response yet. Second order placed on...

    It’s all about your perceived angle. Totally understandable. What’s funny is in the picture it looks like the S2 has a wider gap😂. It’s the shadow.

    It should be new controller. That is why even that was delayed was because they were awaiting new shipment of controllers. See my earlier post where Skydio contacted me last week.

    Anyone get shipping info yet?

    Well I am a bit disappointed. I ordered a controller on Dec 29. That shows it shipped yesterday. I ordered the S2+ Plus sports package on Jan 5. It did not ship yesterday. Still showing order completed only. I thought they were waiting for controller so they could ship all together but...
