Skydio 2 is likely to come to Australia in 2020

Skydio 2 is one of the most exciting drones to launch to date, with its fully autonomous flight capabilities and a great camera, allowing users to stay in the moment. One thing, it’s not available in Australia. Skydio 2 is a promising drone with a unique feature set, and will surely be a competitor to DJI’s Mavic series.

The Skydio 2 is likely to come to Australia in 2020

In a tweet from Skydio’s COO, Tom Moss states there is nothing to share about Skydio 2 making its way across the pond to Australia at the moment. Although, Skydio is looking to bring its new drone to Australia, and possibly other countries in 2020.

Why isn’t Skydio 2 in Australia yet? We’ve been given confirmation that Skydio 2 isn’t being sold to Australian customers, as Skydio doesn’t currently have licensing and rights to be able to sell the drone in Australia. It also requires testing from Australian authorities to ensure it is safe to fly.

Skydio 2 is American company, Skydio’s latest drone offering, with an improved camera, better autonomous flight, and tracking abilities. It builds on the Skydio R1 drone, which impressed the world with its autonomous capabilities. As more information comes in, we will be sure to share it.
