Skydio · Camera drone · 2022–2023 for consumers (the Enterprise kit stayed on sale)
Skydio 2+
The Skydio 2+ is the last drone Skydio sold to the public. It arrived in January 2022 as a quiet refresh of the Skydio 2, adding two fold-up antennas that pushed controller range from 3.5 to 6 km and a bigger battery for 27 minutes in the air. The magic is the same six fisheye navigation cameras, which let it follow you through trees on its own. In August 2023 Skydio's CEO announced the end of the consumer business and the Starter, Sports, Cinema and Pro kits went away, though Skydio kept selling batteries, controllers and Beacons. If you want the most autonomous follow drone you can still fly, this is the one.

Before you fly
The rules, the lock and what it pairs with
Takeoff weight: 800 g, register it
Remote IDBuilt-in Remote ID
The Skydio 2+ is on the FAA's Remote ID Declaration of Compliance list (models 2+ SDR35V1 and SDR35V2). Drones built before September 16, 2022 get it from Skydio's software update, version 21.1 or later, plus a printed label. At 800 g it must be registered with the FAA, and Part 107 work needs registration and Remote ID too.
Account lock
Skydio doesn't document an owner lock on the Skydio 2+. The drone joins your phone over its own WiFi, and the name and password are on a sticker inside the battery tray, though owners can change that password. Skydio Care doesn't pass to a new owner. Skydio's terms say a transfer of the drone ends the coverage unless Skydio agrees in writing.
Controller
Flies from a phone, the Skydio Controller (built by Parrot on the same hardware as ANAFI's controller, but locked to Skydio) or the Skydio 2+ Beacon for hands-free follow. Skydio still sells the Controller, the Beacon, batteries and propellers. The Controller and Beacon also work with the original Skydio 2.
App and firmware
The Skydio app on iOS (14 or later) or Android (10 or later). Skydio says it keeps providing software and customer support for existing owners; its last listed update came in January 2024. Business buyers use the Skydio Enterprise app, which is activated with an emailed code.
Should come with it
The Skydio Controller or the Beacon, which set the range
Spare Skydio 2+ batteries (they also fit the Skydio 2)
The hard case and the red gimbal clip for transport
A microSD card, since none came in the Starter Kit
Check the listing photos against this list, and ask the seller about anything you can’t see. A missing piece should come off the price.
What to check
Skydio doesn't publish a known-fault list for the 2+. Check what any used drone wears out: batteries, propellers and the transport clip that has to come off the gimbal before flying or charging.
01Which model: Look for the two fold-up antennas on the arms in the photos. A Skydio 2+ has them and a plain Skydio 2 doesn't.
02Remote ID: Ask the seller to show the Remote ID check in the app or confirm the software is 21.1 or newer. It should read Remote ID Broadcasting with a green light.
03Controller or Beacon: Check the photos for the Skydio Controller or the Beacon. Without either you're limited to about 200 m on a phone.
04Batteries: Ask how many batteries come with it and look for any that bulge. Each one should sit flat and close cleanly in the drone.
05Navigation cameras: Look at the six round camera lenses on the top and bottom in the photos. They should be clean and uncracked, since the drone steers by them.
06Gimbal and lens: Ask for a short clip from the main camera. The horizon should stay level with no shake or error message.
07WiFi password: Ask the seller whether they changed the drone's WiFi password. You want the current one or a factory sticker that still works.
Only two Skydio 2+ drones are for sale, so the $1,275–1,450 band isn't a market read. The one we'd consider is a US refurbisher's aircraft at $1,500 with free shipping, sold drone only with no battery, controller or Beacon titled, so ask what's in the box and plan on buying a battery from Skydio, which still sells batteries, the Controller and the Beacon. The other is a Cinema kit with the Beacon and three batteries at $1,216 delivered, titled new but from a zero-feedback seller, so we'd pass. The 2+ is on the FAA's Remote ID list, though drones built before September 16, 2022 need Skydio's software update (21.1 or later) and a printed label, and at 800 g it must be registered with the FAA. Skydio doesn't document an owner lock, but Skydio Care doesn't pass to a new owner, so don't pay extra for it.

The only Skydio 2+ here from an established seller, a US refurbisher's aircraft at $1,500 with free shipping. It's titled drone only, so ask whether a battery comes with it; it can fly from your phone, and Skydio still sells the Controller and Beacon for range.
