Sure. The tracking beacon is amazing. There is nothing like it with any other drone I have ever owned. Also, I never have had any of my DJI's negotiate obstacles quite like the Skydio. Obstacle avoidance is one thing, but the way the Skydio could go low, high, wide, narrow, it is just...

I can wait then. No urgent need, but I definitely miss the crazy fun I had with the 2.

I tend to agree, I get the feeling a new version may be on the horizon.

Like many drone users, I have a number of DJI drones. I have owned both the Skydio 2 and the 2+ and at one point last year sold both just because I was getting too much clutter and was buried in drones. I found I was not flying or enjoying the 2+ as much as I was hoping. However, absence...

And it sold. Hot market!

I did not get around to it. Maps of larger areas take quite a long time. I really think that for anything larger than an acre you simply must have automation software though. I don't think anybody is going to accept your manually flown deliverables.

Hello Gents, I am reducing the amount and variety of drones that have consumed my home office to the point that friends and family are concerned about me. I have a S2+ complete kit listed, all the extra's - controller, filters, GPS tracker, extra props, batteries, case, etc. It's a good deal...

I repeated it again today and believe definitively that they have improved the experience. It is better. (In my opinion.)

Welcome! You found a great place!

Fantastic! Welcome! The community appears to me to be much smaller than the other brands, but this is hopefully growing. The Skydio drone value proposition is different than others, but is so unique. Enjoy the heck out of it!!

Ahhh. Thank you. Well, then I was finished for quite some time. : ) I think this is a sign of my getting older and is the driving equivalent of sitting at a stop sign waiting for the light to turn green. : )

The controller gets some update though right? When I connected the controller directly to the drone via usb-c cable the controller did the flashing green light indicating a firmware update. I updated the controller and the beacon with this latest update.

What I meant to say in the above post, was I got to extreme limit of my LOS and had zero pixellation in the display as you can see.

I don't know if they did something or I am just getting lucky today, but following the new update my 2+ got all the way to my extreme limit of LOS. Here is a video screen grab of my tablet, and when I couldn't glimpse it anymore, I brought it back.

Question folks, when I plug the dock into the S2, (with a battery in the dock) to update the dock, the battery light turns solid green. Does this mean it is updating, updated, or ?? I thought it would turn blue after the update is complete.
