The Skydio R1 app includes "one-shot" skills, which offer entirely new methods of capturing stunningly cinematic shareable moments. To learn more about using one-shots, check out our tutorial video (or read on):

One-shot modes are specific and customizable motions your R1 will perform once before returning back into the continuous cinematic skill you were in before. One-shots can be triggered while R1 is following a subject, or triggered independent of tracking - for instance, if you’d like to simply capture the scene with a unique camera move. While performing a one-shot, your R1 still retains full obstacle avoidance, flying itself while capturing amazing new perspectives of your adventure.
