Your First Flight
For your rst ight, we recommend nding 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 ying Skydio 2 is easy
and intuitive, it's a good idea to give yourself and others a little space when ying for the rst
time
Set your Skydio 2 down on clear, at ground at least 10 feet away with the front camera
facing toward you. You may also use the top of Skydio 2’s case as a convenient launch and
landing pad
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

articles and tutorial videos
Note: If you purchased an optional accessory such as the Controller or Beacon, we
highly recommend you perform your rst ight without these accessories in order to
complete the ‘Learn to Fly’ experience
Note: Skydio 2 requires a stable GPS connection to y greater than 10m/33ft. above
its point of takeo or the currently tracked subject. This may not be possible when
ying in GPS denied environments such as indoors, heavy urban areas, and deep
canyons; or when ying near large metal structures such as radio towers and
bridges. If you are having any diculty getting your Skydio 2 to y above 10m/33ft.,
you may need to y a few meters in a lateral motion (forward, backward, left, or
right) to acquire a GPS lock. This is true regardless of which method you're using to
y (app/phone-only, with Beacon, or with Controller)
