Understanding Battery Level Messaging on Skydio X2

Percentage

displays the raw battery percentage available for flight

When battery capacity has less than two minutes of flight time available for landing the indicator will change to a countdown

When battery capacity is zero the indicator will change to an alert symbol and the drone will initiate a non-cancellable landing with the ability to nudge

Green

Green indicates how much battery capacity for nominal flight before the time limit required to safely return and land 

• • decreases as battery capacity diminishes during flight
  • decreases you fly away from the return location, increasing the time to return
  • may increase as you fly toward the return location, decreasing the time to return

Yellow

Yellow indicates how much battery is required to safely return

• • increases as you fly away from the return location, increasing the time to return
  • decreases as you fly toward the return location, decreasing the time to return
  • increase or decrease with the time to safely return

White tick mark

The white tick mark hits the yellow battery region when the user receives the already-implemented return prompt when the drone has hit its maximum limit to safely return.

Red

 Red is dynamic in size and indicates how much battery is required to land

• • increase as the drone ascends
  • decrease as the drone descends
