Your First Flight
For your first flight, we recommend finding a clear, open space away from others on level
ground with at least 20 feet of clearance in every direction (including above). Make sure nothing
is obstructing the propellers at your launch location. Although flying Skydio 2 is easy and
intuitive, it's a good idea to give yourself and others a little space when flying for the first time.
Note: If you purchased an optional accessory such as the Controller or Beacon, we
highly
recommend
you perform your first flight without these accessories in order to complete the
‘Learn to Fly’ experience.
Set your Skydio 2 down on clear, flat ground at least 10 feet away with the front camera facing
toward you.
Launching Skydio 2 is as simple as holding the Launch button. Once Skydio 2 is in the air, the
Skydio app will begin the Learn to Fly experience, which will teach you the basic controls and
capabilities of your Skydio 2. You may replay the Learn to Fly experience at any time from the
Skills menu.
