![]() ![]() Pros: anti-crash technology and multi-platform support It locks on, follows along, and avoids obstacles by itself - all managed automatically through the software platform. Given this semi-autonomous flying, the Skydio 2 really shines when it comes to tracking people or other moving items. I realized quickly that you don’t even need a controller or beacon for basic flights because the software connects with the drone’s on-board obstacle avoidance features to keep the drone safely in the air. Regardless, the off-the-shelf software has a lot of interesting features. ![]() I reached out to Skydio multiple times to see if I could try out their enterprise software (which retails for $1,500 per month as a SaaS product). I tried out the off-the-shelf software that came with the drone. ![]() The Cinema Package was largely the same, though some elements initially felt a bit cheap (as if they might break in my hands, which thankfully didn’t end up happening). Hardware quality: The drone itself is incredibly high quality with seamless construction and novel features. However, it’s faster than most non-racing drones on the market today. Price: The drone’s price ($999) plus an additional $900 for the Cinema Package is normal for this quality of drone.ĭrone body: While a bit big compared to similar drones, its battery life and flight time are about average for the market. In part one, I talked about the Skydio 2’s key hardware features and how it compares to the drone market on average. Missed part one? Here’s what you need to know In this post, I’ve compiled my thoughts on Skydio 2’s software strengths and limitations, plus give my final verdict on whether I recommend the drone to everyone. I work with drones on a regular basis, and know that software is just as important - if not more important - than the drone itself. After part one of this blog series where I reviewed Skydio 2’s hardware, I want to dive into the software side. The Skydio 2 drone is a beautiful piece of machinery, but the hardware is only one part of it. By Tim Jackson, VP OF CUSTOMER SUCCESS at Scanifly ![]()
