Other topics discussed in this segment of the show are DJI’s new gimbal, DJI X-Port, and DJI’s new disaster relief program.

Our next new story is about the Skydio R2, arguably the biggest drone news story of the moment. The California-based drone manufacturer, Skydio launched its new drone, the Skydio R2 on October 1. Armed with autonomous flying capabilities, this Skydio R1 successor is priced attractively at $999. Accessories like the Beacon and the Controller further enhance the flying capabilities of this drone. As the early reviews roll, we discuss the Pros and Cons of this new drone. Will Skydio finally taste commercial success with this new drone? Considering the small sensor size, is the Skydio R2 a good alternative to the Mavic 2 Pro?
