Rotate Skydio 2 to face away from you so that the back of the chassis and
the battery are closest to you. If you are using the beacon, you may use
the Steering skill to position and rotate the drone where you want it
Step 2
Initiate a landing through the app, Beacon or Controller as you would
normally. Do not attempt to grab or catch Skydio 2 without rst initiating
a landing. Doing so will result in the motors spinning at full speed and
may cause severe injury. Skydio 2 will descend straight down.
Step 3
While Skydio 2 is landing you may nudge the drone forwards, backward,
left, or right using the Controller or digital thumbsticks in the app.
Step 4
Skydio 2 will descend with full obstacle avoidance until it is 3m (10 ft) above
the ground. Once Skydio 2 is less than 3m from the ground the LEDs on
Skydio 2 will turn yellow and all obstacle avoidance will be disabled for the
remainder of the landing. Do not attempt to hand catch Skydio 2 before
the LEDs turn yellow. Attempting to hand catch Skydio 2 while obstacle
avoidance is active will cause it to attempt to avoid your hand and may
result in Skydio 2 impacting yourself or another nearby object. Users will
be notied of this change on screen if ying with the Skydio 2 app
Step 5
After the LEDs have turned yellow, lightly grab the vehicle by the battery
from underneath. Once the drone has made contact with your hand, grasp
the battery on the sides, and hold the drone in the same position until the
propellers completely stop spinning

Hand Landing
Ensure you have safe landing conditions, including low winds, and that
Skydio 2 is hovering stationary within a few feet of you and is no longer
following a sub
j
ect.
P
osition Skydio 2 so that it
'
s over clear ground and you
have ample space to move and catch it
Step
1
Note:
During
the
landing
phase,
Skydio
2
is
checking
if
it
is
supported
by
a
stable
surface
and
motionless
for
several
seconds
to
ensure
that
a
safe
touchdown
has
been
achieved.
Because
of
that,
it
may
take
the
Skydio
2
several
seconds
to
stop
the
propellers
after
touching
down.
