Flight
Obstacle Avoidance
When GPS Flight is enabled, Skydio X10 does not use vision navigation and
Obstacle Avoidance is disabled. Take extra caution when piloting the drone to avoid
obstacles and stay clear of people.
GPS Signal
Maintaining a strong GPS signal is paramount when operating X10 at night. If Skydio
X10 loses GPS while in GPS Night Flight mode, it will initiate an emergency landing.
Visibility
Improve visibility by enabling infrared or visible strobe lights. Skydio X10 strobe
lights meet the FAA requirement of being visible at a distance of 3 statute miles.
Return Behavior
Review the return behavior height setting in the Global Settings menu. Skydio X10
does not avoid obstacles when in GPS Flight mode, so you may want to set the
drone’s return height such that it will be above any potential obstacles.
Landing
When landing, use the controller joystick to descend down to 15 feet (4.6 meters),
when you are ready to land, press and hold the LAND button on the screen or the
controller. Do not hand launch or hand land at night.
