Flight
To visually track a subject, select the Track in Place skill, identify a subject of interest, then fly the drone to within 100
ft (30 m) if your subject is a person or 140 ft (40 m) if your subject is a vehicle so that Skydio X2 will detect it.
Select the subject indicator to start tracking a subject
• X2 will hover in place, rotating and tilting the camera
to track the subject as it moves
Track in Place
Zoom-in while Tracking Subject
Provides a clear and enlarged view of the individual or vehicle being tracked. Allows you to start tracking a subject
and digitally zoom-in 3x
NOTE: Tracking will continue until the subject is too far away or blocked by an obstruction.
Use the controller joystick or on-screen controls to
control the pitch, roll, and altitude
• X2 will adjust yaw and gimbal pitch automatically
according to the subject’s position
• lateral movement speed limited to 4 mph (6.4 km/h)
While the Track still is actively tracking a subject, Skydio
X2 will hover in place, staying visually locked onto
that subject up to 800 feet (240 meters) away if that
subject is a person, and 1,000 feet (300 meters) away
if a vehicle. As the subject moves or you fly the drone,
tracking will continue until the subject is too far away or
blocked by an obstruction.
The subject icons represent a person or vehicle that is available for tracking. When in the Track skill, tapping the
indicator will command X2 to enter autonomous flight mode with the selected object as the tracking subject.
Tips for best tracking performance:
• track one person or vehicle at a time. Skydio X2 does not track pets or animals.
• to be available for track the subject must be visible on the Fly screen
• if the subject indicator does not display, fly closer and ensure that the subject is framed in the center of screen
