The Self-Flying Camera

Skydio’s $2499 ‘self-flying’ drone knows where you are and where you’re going

Introducing a new kind of visual storytelling. Skydio R1 knows what to film and moves itself with the freedom of flight to get the best shot, letting you capture otherwise impossible videos of your adventures. Skydio sees the world differently. Powered by the Skydio Autonomy Engine, R1 maps and interprets the world in real-time, letting it safely avoid obstacles as it films you. Smartphone simplicity. The Skydio app doesn’t overwhelm you with complex flight data and confusing controls. If you can use the camera app on your phone, you can control R1. Designed, assembled, and tested in California. Each Skydio R1 Frontier Edition is made at our corporate headquarters so we can ensure peak performance — no compromises.
