Flight
Skills
The default skill is Manual flight. The Manual flight skill offers a
traditional flying experience using the Skydio Enterprise Controller.
Your obstacle avoidance settings will persist when flying manually.
Obstacle avoidance allows Skydio X2 to route itself around
obstacles, modifying any commands that could potentially cause a
collision.
Each skill may have its own custom settings which only affect the selected skill. Select the skill settings icon to
customize each of the settings to suit your needs.
