The image clarity and colour is brilliant. The limited flight range is just a minor disadvantage against all of the other advantages of the Skydio 2 in my opinion. Such a great drone but of course, you do realise that all you are doing is teasing us here in the UK and the rest of Europe, wanting something so bad but we just can't get it! Ha ..... you keep it up Marcus!! 😂
Wow the colours are amazing . The reservoir looks like glass,? so still. Wish I could fly at that location. Such a capable drone , looking forward to seeing more flights in the future.
Great to see you get the Skydio 2 out for a winter flight. And so right about the camera being underrated, almost no talks about how good the video is. Not many drones capture better video, even when in auto settings. You were to capture some awesome video of the canyon. Nice flight.
The whole scene is tranquil!!!!!! Your right about Skydio 2 being underrated. I was going to get on the list but didn’t when I saw the shipping problems and just the dang cost of the thing with extra batteries, the beacon, and the controller. Also the loss connection problem like you showed. Also the rumors of a new far less expensive Mavic Air 2 hit the channels and I decided that it was the drone for me. But what if!!! Thanks Marcus and Happy New Year to you and your wife!!!!!!
That was some stunning footage...it's a beautiful area. I am brand new to drones with the DJI Mini 2 being my first. I think I learned that I would not buy the Skydio2. The obstacle avoidance is impressive, but the glitches with the drone were more than I would want to tolerate. This video is evidence why DJI is the market leader I suppose.
Idaho Quadcopter that was a really Great Video & Nice scenery ! You really do a Great job on your Videos ! Thanks for the Nice Video ! Oh I watched it on our Big Screen TV !
Hey Marcus, the Skydio camera did great, handled the contrast especially well. A great looking day to get it in the air!! Thanks for sharing with us. If I had a Skydio (which I don't) I would take a picture of the case LOGO, print it out and put it on a landing pad and see if it would land on the pad. Surely it would, right? But you never know until you try❗❗ If I only knew someone that had a Skydio❓❓ 😁
Excellent video. I just bought a DJI Mini 2 and plan to fly from some of the same points you are flying from as soon as the weather warms up and the pandemic cools down, if ever. I would love to fly the same route with the Mini 2 but I would be afraid the thing would lose connection and land in the water and then I would be out $500 since I wouldn't be able to recover the drone, probably. I love the camera and the obstacle avoidance features, but that's what you get when you more than double the price of the Mini 2. As usual, there is no limit on the amount of features one can buy if you want to spend the money.
I've been flying the Mini2 since it was released....Trust me, you are not going to lose connection in the area that Marcus was flying. I've flown it plenty far and have watched many TH-cam videos of people flying it 6 miles away from them!! You don't have anything to worry about. Occusync 2.0 is amazing.
Your Mini 2 will always come home. I've flown mine out, turned off the controller, and unplugged my iPhone, and the drone comes home. 👍 Let me add that if you program the drone to land upon loss of signal it will not RTH.
Great Video.... Love my Skydio 2 also and your right the camera is really good maybe better than my Mavic 2 zoom and Mavic Air 2 or the Mini 2. The range of the controller is not real good but then that is because it wifi, vs. OcoSync 2.0. I think if you would had none a return to home it would had found the case... Needed to be a little higher up. Thanks Dave....
I think the drone was made more for the tracking feature as well as the obstacle avoidance capability not for distance. But your right the cam does take some nice video.
Enjoyed the video. Curious, what was the distance when the Skydio2 lost its connection to the controller, and decided to RTH? Great day for flying. I agree, thought the camera captured some great video. Thanks for sharing !
Looking at going to Vegas again as soon as we can. Do you know if you can fly a drone in the Grand Canyon? Or is it restricted with all the helicopters that go there.
Hi Marcus I know you know about the new updates to the fly app well I've been using it and now I'm not receiving flight data anymore have you heard of this problem
I like the sky the old wrong but I can't get one I can't afford it so I like the way you walk I like the way you run with it so Thomas from Winter Haven Florida
Skydio support has been absolutely terrible. Drone crashed on its first flight and I have tried multiple emails, voicemails, chats and even reaching out to them on Facebook. NO RESPONSE. Kind of absurd for the money you pay. Does anyone know the most effective way to get in touch with them?

Mikey
Thank you Mikey! The Skydio 2 is just so much fun! They did a great job with the camera!
The Skydio is really good. One of a kind. Thanks for sharing Marcus.
Thank you for watching Ryan! I'll bet you're glad to be in the new house. 👍
@@IdahoQuadcopter yes, the new house is amazing!
Super nice flying, views, colors, and narrative. Thanks for sharing, Marcus.
Thank you Blueskyver! The Skydio 2 is just plain a lot of fun to fly!
Really beautiful place to fly your drone. Thank you and continue flying high.
Thank you, I sure will! Not higher than 400 feet however. 🙂
Thumbs up ere' Marcus, that's a cool drone Skydio 2. Great flight over the Peak Reservoir. Many thanks for sharing :)
Many Thanks Shaun! The Skydio 2 a pretty darn cool!

Ha ..... you keep it up Marcus!! 😂
Thank you Kev! I'm willing to bet that the UK and Europe will see the Skydio 2 soon as Skydio appears to be catching up with production. 👍
Wow the colours are amazing . The reservoir looks like glass,? so still. Wish I could fly at that location. Such a capable drone , looking forward to seeing more flights in the future.
Many thanks! I was a really nice day to be out flying. 👍

Thank you Ron! No question the Skydio camera is one of the best drone cameras out there. 👍
Really a nice place to fly Thanks for sharing!
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Wow what a location! Lovely to see the Skydio2 out 👍🏻. Sounded like an angry bee when you caught it 🤣
Love how Sara just ignores your drones now 🤣
Thank you Jackie! The S2 is easy to hand catch because it descends so slowly. 👍
Ha! She puts up with me Jackie! 😎
Wow it's still amazing how much water they have drained from the reservoir love the video Marcus fly safe
Usually it's lower than that at this time of year. 👍 Thank you!
@@IdahoQuadcopter 👍
Hi Marcus. Great video. The quality in the Skydio 2 looks awesome. Hope this finds you well. Stay safe and fly well my friend.
Thank you Stephen you too! 👍

Happy New Year Terry, and Thank You! I was lucky and ordered my S2 early, and have had it for over a year now. I need to fly it more.
Another great video Marcus. You really do have some beautiful scenery there in Idaho
Thank you Sean! It was just plain a great day to be out flying!
Instablaster
Just started to watch your video, and yes it has a beautiful camera on it. Happy Flying
Thank you and I'm glad you like the Skydio camera. It's autonomous feature get all of the attention, and the camera is really the star of the show.
Beautiful video Marcus! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much!
Another great flight. Thanks Marcus
My pleasure! It was a lot of fun flying that day!
Thanks, very nice scenery as always
I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
Interesting how this really shows the water level range.
Hope you're feeling well buddy! Take care
Thank you Lauren! The water level is usually lower this time of year. They must be a little worried about snow pack.
Thank you once more Marcus. What a great drone to have in your arsenal! You should use it more as I really enjoyed that 😃⛄️😃
Yeah, you're exactly right. I need to fly the Skydio 2 more.
Impressive drone.
Thank you! 👍
Another Great video, I like the way it shows the depth of the reservoir.
Thank you Greg! I really like flying from that spot.
Thanks for sharing. Happy New Year. Mine should arrive next week 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 excited!!!! Thanks again
Happy new year!! You will really enjoy your Skydio 2!

You will have a ton of fun with your Mini 2. 👍
Awesome vid👍 beautiful views, i love that you tried to fly in into that structure and test The capabilities😎👍👍👍
Thank you! As you know, that's easy with the Skydio 2. 👍
Beautiful area

It's a darn fun drone. 👍
Great flight, and you my friend have a very nice truck lol

Hi Marcus, First time visiting your channel. Looks like a great drone. The tracking feature is amazing.
All the best from Scotland for 2021.
Thanks
Thank you! The Skydio 2 is just an amazing product. I really like the color science built into the camera.
Fantastic place
It really is! Thank you!
Mid 40's is warmed up for you??? Lol that would keep me from walking out my front for lol!!!!! Great video Marcus!
Ha! Thank you Matt! Yes, mid 40s are springtime weather here. 😁
Very nice.
Thank you!
Nice Marcus!
Thank you very much!
Thanks Marcus for video
Thank you Jim. 👍
I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A SKYDIO! TOO EXPENSIVE TO GET HERE IN BRAZIL.
I FIND A SUPER DRONE!
CONGRATULATIONS MY FRIEND
Thank you. I'll bet that they make them available in Brazil soon. 👍
Wow! The view. Great video Marcus! The lake was like a mirror today.
Thank you Patrick! The lake was very placid that day for sure. 👍
Thanks Marcus 👌👍🕊️
Thank you so much!
Have to get the Mavic air 2 up there Marcus, looks a great place to fly.
Thank you John! It is, and I have! 😎

A number of people have done exactly what you suggest with the logo, and it does work! Thank you Doug!

The camera draws well, flies very neatly. The price of the drone is also good.
Thank you Valerii. The Skydio 2 is an excellent product.

I think if you would had none a return to home it would had found the case... Needed to be a little higher up.
Thanks Dave....
Thank you Dave. Yes, the only shortcoming of the S2 is the range of the controller. I wish it had a little more power.
I think the drone was made more for the tracking feature as well as the obstacle avoidance capability not for distance. But your right the cam does take some nice video.
Your points a quite valid. I so wish Skydio would improve the controller.
Marcus.... You got it the ole college try, though Skydio has some problems they need to sort out before I can invest.
It's a lot of fun to fly! Thank you!
Enjoyed the video. Curious, what was the distance when the Skydio2 lost its connection to the controller, and decided to RTH? Great day for flying. I agree, thought the camera captured some great video. Thanks for sharing !
Thank you! It was a really beautiful day to fly.
Nice..
Thank you! Cheers!
Looking at going to Vegas again as soon as we can. Do you know if you can fly a drone in the Grand Canyon? Or is it restricted with all the helicopters that go there.
All National Parks are “off limits” for Drone flights. I think National Monuments are as well. Perhaps Lake Powell may be a good spot in the area?
Yes, sadly there is no flying in National Parks. 🙁
Oh well might have to come to Idaho. Looks some beautiful places to fly👍
Hi Marcus, If you could only own one drone, which would you choose, the Skydio 2 or Mavic Air 2?
I love my Skydio, but if I only had one it would be the MA2. It is very versatile.
Hi Marcus I know you know about the new updates to the fly app well I've been using it and now I'm not receiving flight data anymore have you heard of this problem
I've not had any issues with the fly app. I'm sorry I have not seen the problem.
I didn’t buy the controller, but I’m thinking about it, I never knew that you had to shut off Wi-Fi for it to work 🤔🤔🤔
Yes, if you don't shut off WiFi, the drone could connect to your phone instead of the controller.
@@IdahoQuadcopter good to know, my controller is on the way 👍
I like the sky the old wrong but I can't get one I can't afford it so I like the way you walk I like the way you run with it so Thomas from Winter Haven Florida
Thank you! It is a nice drone. 👍
For a point and click, I’d put the Skydio 2’s camera up against any drone in full auto.
I hear you! It does a great job.
Nice Marcus? I enjoy all your drones! Lol!
Thank you! More to come! 🙂
I don't like that it doesn't fold up ☹️. Takes to much space .
It actually fits into a case that is smaller than the one for my Mavic 2. 👍
Skydio support has been absolutely terrible. Drone crashed on its first flight and I have tried multiple emails, voicemails, chats and even reaching out to them on Facebook. NO RESPONSE. Kind of absurd for the money you pay. Does anyone know the most effective way to get in touch with them?
I've never had a reason to contact Skydio support, so don't know the best way to contact them. Who knows, they may see this post.
I am a great spot in mind. Let me know if you want to do a little road trip
Yeah, we've got some cool places to fly in Idaho don't we? 👍
@@IdahoQuadcopter let me know and I can drive. Its east of us about a hour
This is a follow me drone,not good distance and you can’t fly at nite
It's a great product. 👍
Still is bad ,Skydio will think that it is the sky,don’t get to close
Okay. 👍
Too expensive...
It's actually quite reasonable for what you get.
