Respected Danny Mcgee! Thank you for doing the range test! To be honest, I was surprised by the lack of telemetry in such a cool copter. I expected a more serious result, even Mavic PRO easily flies at 4 km! Anyway. . . thank you for your test! I wish you new interesting videos!
@@VickersDoorter I updated my android phone on the night of 12/24 with the telemetry addition, Version 5.41.26. Here we are 5 days later and still no update for iOS, I wonder why it takes Apple so long to approve updates?
You should look at the FCC filing Skydio did over the weekend. I think we are going to see some improvements coming via s/w. It is an interesting read for sure.
With how amazing this drone is if they could extend it's range to 3 miles it would be #1 selling drone. That distance really kills it. Because it will be less with things in it's way
Yes old phantoms got it a lot. I'm sure skydio still has some work to do to catch up to DJI in the gimbal department but as a 2nd gen product this thing is insane.
ALmost but not ready for DJI not yet not with this drone. Just being honest. Dont get me wrong it's a nice drone. But the truth is the truth. You shouldnt verbally have to try and sell it for Skydio the video demo of the device should of done the job, that's what made me buy the mavic line. I do see skydio getting there. It's my 2nd favorite at the moment.
Shame that telemetry was only added to android users, us apple fans are still awaiting this update 😞 but hey maybe by the time my Oct 2 early AM order, apple will approve this for our use too.. Not holding my breath on either anymore I’ve loss much hope in getting mine prior to February anyhow.
this is bull crap, its 2021 and skydio still didnt fix there range flight. i cant even do one eight of a mile and loosing the signal, with phone beacon and remote, how you got this range i have no idea maybe because you were sitting on top of the mountain. this is a great drone hand down way better they dji with this follow me mode and tracking, but flying manual with remote they need to do some serious work.

as for me i don't really care about distance, but The jello effect that i have found is huge 2:56. That is not good for the drone priced like that. :(
Telemetry has been added about a week ago for Android and 3 days ago for IOS 👍 nice vid
Hey buddy, if I'm not mistaken Skydio just released a firmware update with telemetry added! Check it out! Thx buddy and welcome home! 🤟🤟
Michael
I checked the Apple App site today, the latest they show is 5.41.2. I believe the Telemetry one is 5.41.3.

Danny, Have you received any new updates until last month on you SKYDIO, because I am buying one in few months.
I love skydio 2; the obstacle detection and collision avoidance sensors are very very important; I crashed my mavic 2 pro into a tree! It was so sad!
Damn that's heartbreaking
Now that the novelty has worn off ... are you still happy with the skydio and your purchase?
Not impressed...got way more with my mini.
That's a perfect area to yest, wide open. Cut in half in built up areas.
The controller definitely needs its antennas modified.
Thanks mate!
Only 1 mile.. That's shit

Me just laughing here with my mavic 2 pro
I'm in love with that place ,where?
2:56 is it normal for this drone to have a jello effect like this?

Got more with my zino 2
How did you gain so many subscribers so quick?
Not far from the Cheyenne Mountain Complex: 4.3 km
Why did you mention nothing about transmission ?
Nice drone👍

RaptorMan M2Z Apple update was added yesterday.
Kendall Martin well at least apple is a relatively fast acting company if only this was a shared trait with other un named companies
DJI mavic 3 9 miles
All these drones have disappointing battery life just give is bigger batteries and motors to suit
So apart for the follow feature this drone is crap?!
Okay, that's pretty far!

Mavic pro platinum best for range, 17.9km,skydio is for selvie and vlogs drone, not range drone
Disappointing a bit
Over hyped drone. They are crashing everywhere since the first update.
