    Low flying

    No... I'll be filming me on a mountain bike. Not enough hands to use the wand. Also, I will be going up and down hills, so my elevation will be changing.

    Low flying

    I don't necessarily want it going below the 8' floor... I just don't want it flying at 30'or so. Is there a way to keep it at the 8'floor?

    Low flying

    Is there any way to get skydio to fly lower when doing a follow me flight?? I love the shots it gets, but if they were at a lower altitude, they would be so much better.

    Beacon range

    I typically fly my Skydio with the beacon connected with my phone app. However, I’ve had some issues. Last flight, my drone lost me because I went behind some trees. I thought that wasn’t supposed to happen with the beacon. Also, on more than one occasion, the drone flies out of range while...

    First Real Flight with SkyDio 2

    This is my first real flight with the SkyDio 2. This thing is amazing! Video is shot using the cell phone app... no beacon. This first video was in Motion Track - Front. The tracking ability of this thing is on a completely different level than my DJI Mavic. I literally launched it, locked...
