Disabling the Height Floor setting may increase tracking performance by allowing
Skydio 2 to y under low-lying obstacles, such as tree branches and overhangs, to
maintain visual line of sight. It also allows users to set the preferred follow height low
to the ground, capturing high-energy shots from a unique ground-hugging
perspective. As stated in the Safety and Operating Guide, the Skydio 2 only avoids
obstacles that are not in motion. Cars, balls, animals, other drones, other people, or
similar moving objects will not be avoided if they’re moving faster than walking
speed.
The combination of low elevation ight and high speed tracking presents an
increased risk of collision with moving objects. Skydio, Inc strongly recommends
users only disable the Height Floor setting when operating in wide open, outdoor
spaces with no other people, animals, or other moving objects nearby. Pilots
maintain full responsibility for the safe operation of their Skydio 2 drone at all times
during ight.

Flying Safely
The Skydio 2 only avoids obstacles that are not in motion. Cars, boats, balls,
animals, other drones, other people, or similar moving objects may not be
avoided if they’re moving. You should exercise extreme caution and good
judgment when ying with other people around. If you know that you’ll be
around others in motion, we suggest you leave the Height Floor setting enabled
to ensure Skydio 2 maintains a safe elevation.
