What’s exciting about this ride is this was my first ride where I was able to get the visual tracking and the GPS tracking with my first ride with my ice VTX and the Skydio 2 drone. This is a local high school that’s not too far from where I live and it’s amazing because the school looks like a college campus almost. So I’m going to going against the traffic on one part of the video because I will be making a sharp left and then I will mostly be on the sidewalk. As you will see the Skydio 2 drone is actually tracking me very nicely. And of course, I don’t have all my bike riding gear on because this was just an opportunity for me to get on the trike and get the Skydio 2 drone up in the air as quickly as possible. But it was just amazing for me to really get a feeling of whats it's going to be like to have the drone working hard at keeping up with me and staying in front of me. And you can’t really see it but it’s going around light poles trees signs street signs. I mean the Skydio 2 drone it’s really doing a great job with keeping up with me and I think the drone will go up to 35 miles an hour so itchy be able to keep up with me most of the time. Man, I am just loving this feeling of having a friend in the sky that’s actually recording for me. It almost like the Skydio 2 drone strives to be obedient. I mean you’ll see me go on the street on the sidewalk and go back-and-forth there’s one part in here will you see me make a left on the sidewalk and the Skydio 2 drone swings out into the street but then it comes right back in front of me. There was one area where I got concerned there’s a body of water and on one of the videos, I watch it said that the Skydio 2 drone doesn’t do well over water I don’t know if the cameras get confused or what I don’t know if the cameras get confused or what. But I’m cooking along pretty nicely and there’s one part where I make a left into the school and go around the school and the drone looks like it’s going to run into the side of the school but of course it doesn’t. I’m looking forward to my next ride well I have the opportunity to use a Skydio 2 drone Skydio 2 drone. There are times when it seems like it gets confusing but I think it just figuring out how it's going to get around that obstacle. It just working to figure out what direction it's going to or route it's going to take to get around something. So it's just recalibration.
To appreciate this video you got a check out My 1st and 2nd videos where I’m using the Skydio 2 drone.

Well, I'll tell you what this is motivating me to do: FLY MY SKYDIO! Blast this rain! I guess I'll have to go ride.... Now if only they can make a waterproof version of the Skydio 2! Much better behavior for the "Air dig" this time around. Some of the coolest shots are the ones where you take a hard turn and the Skydio takes a moment to catch up. First we get a fantastic, wide, expansive view of the area that is very cinematic, then we better have our seatbelts and helmet on because the Skydio puts on turbo boost and zips to catch up with you to get back into position in front all while avoiding obstacles! I'm looking forward to future videos where you have it fly behind you! I think not only will the Skydio be less prone to flying off your direction due to turns since it will be following now and be able to anticipate your turns better but you will be able to get more constant wide aerial shots that can be quite cinematic. I think the reason the Skydio 2 may have issues over water is it doesn't see the water because of the reflections and so it thinks there is no surface. Just my thoughts. Ironically a lot of the marketing and many RU-vid videos show the Skydio 2 taking boats and surfers over the water! Ride on!!!!

Airwolf, thanks for the encouraging feedback. I’m looking forward to future ride with Skydio capturing different angles.

Most impressive drone. I'm saving up already. Because as nice as my Mavic Pro Platinum is, there is no way it could have kept up tracking like this.

Yes yes, man I have been enjoying your videos. I love seeing you on the road with the velomobile. I’m hoping next year I can do some more serious riding in the cold.

I was really surprised that it did as well as it did. I guess I was suffering from my ski phantom 4 that I crashed the first week. So when I saw this thing going around obstacles I thought, maybe I got a chance :)

I'm curious what changed between this video and the "what the hell Skydio?" video. I have heard that the beacon should have direct line of sight to the drone to help with the tracking. Was it in a pocket in the first video but not in this one? The footage is pretty amazing!
@themotivatedrider3840
@themotivatedrider3840 3 года назад
Thanks, I think the big thing that I learned was that you want the beacon and the phone to work in concert for visual and gps tracking.

Quick question.. how high are you flying to Skydio I want to take my new ice adventure out for a cruise but I have to go under a freeway and I’m a little worried about that .. it seems the closer I keep it to me the more control I have.. I have Flown this on my 4-wheeler.. Thank you for your response
@hahafalseflag5090

Can you set how high the drone is when tracking you
@themotivatedrider3840
@themotivatedrider3840 3 года назад
It does have 3 settings where you can adjust the altitude at which it will track. I think it was about 25 feet. Also when there is a obstacle that it has to go around or over that going to vary.
